Inventive Principle:

Principle #7Nested doll (Nesting)

4Productivity

If the heating power is increased to diffuse oil faster, then the productivity is improved, but the risk of altering oil composition increases

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveoil diffusion rateVSAvoidrisk of altering CBD oil composition

Core Design Contradiction:

ProductivityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The device incorporates temperature sensing and control mechanisms that provide feedback to the heating element, automatically adjusting the heating power to maintain optimal temperature ranges that ensure effective diffusion while preventing temperatures that could alter the CBD oil's chemical composition

Inventive Principle:

Principle #23Feedback
