Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Quantity of substance
If spray-type perfume is used, then fragrance diffusion is achieved, but excessive application and misdirection occur
Solution Approach 1:
The applicator is designed with localized porous structures that concentrate fragrance delivery at specific points of contact with the skin, enabling precise application while maintaining diffusion. The porous applicator replaces the omnidirectional spray nozzle, allowing users to control exactly where fragrance is applied.
Solution Approach 2:
The porous applicator acts as an intermediary between the perfume reservoir and the skin. It absorbs and releases fragrance through its porous structure, providing controlled local application rather than direct spray contact, thus preventing excessive application and misdirection.
2Quantity of substance
If spray-type perfume is used, then fragrance is delivered, but skin irritation occurs
Solution Approach 1:
The porous applicator serves as a protective intermediary that prevents direct contact between alcohol-based perfume and skin. It absorbs the fragrance and releases it through controlled diffusion via pores, reducing skin irritation while maintaining fragrance delivery.
Solution Approach 2:
The applicator is made of porous material that allows fragrance molecules to pass through while filtering out harsh alcohol content. The porous structure enables controlled release of fragrance without the direct skin contact that causes irritation in spray types.
3Ease of operation
If roll-on perfume is used, then portability is improved, but diffusion is weak
Solution Approach 1:
The porous applicator combines the portability of roll-on designs with enhanced diffusion capabilities. The porous structure allows fragrance to be absorbed and released through multiple pathways, creating stronger diffusion while maintaining the portable, controlled application mechanism.
Solution Approach 2:
The system changes the physical state of fragrance delivery from liquid roll-on to vaporized bubbles through the porous applicator. This parameter change enables stronger diffusion while maintaining portability, as the bubbles rise and disperse fragrance more effectively than liquid roll-on.
4Duration of action of stationary object
If liquid perfume is used, then fragrance longevity is achieved, but consumption control is difficult
Solution Approach 1:
The system incorporates feedback control where the porous applicator automatically regulates fragrance release based on skin contact and environmental conditions. This feedback mechanism prevents excessive consumption while maintaining fragrance longevity, as the applicator releases fragrance only when needed.
Solution Approach 2:
The porous applicator provides controlled consumption through its porous structure, which regulates the rate of fragrance release. The pore size and distribution control how much fragrance is released at once, preventing waste while ensuring longevity.
5Quantity of substance
If alcohol-based perfume is used, then fragrance projection is achieved, but skin irritation and inhalation risks occur
Solution Approach 1:
The porous applicator acts as a protective intermediary that prevents direct skin contact with alcohol-based perfume while still enabling fragrance projection. It absorbs the alcohol-containing perfume and releases fragrance through vaporization, reducing skin irritation and inhalation risks.
Solution Approach 2:
The porous applicator filters and controls the release of alcohol-based fragrance through its porous structure. It allows fragrance molecules to pass through for projection while preventing direct skin contact with concentrated alcohol, reducing irritation and inhalation hazards.

AI summary
The present invention relates to a portable perfume dispenser for both application and bubble diffusion. More particularly, the invention provides a dispenser that addresses conventional shortcomings while allowing direct use of liquid perfume without modifying its formulation, enabling refilling and replacement, and generating fragrance bubbles in a form optimized for skin adherence and smooth application. The dispenser is configured to allow liquid perfume to be applied to the body or to diffuse fragrance through the generation of surface bubbles. According to an embodiment of the present invention, a portable perfume dispenser for both application and bubble diffusion, capable of diffusing fragrance either by surface application or by holding the fragrance in bubbles, includes a perfume reservoir configured to store liquid perfume, a flow channel support communicating with one side of the perfume reservoir, a water pump mounted within the flow channel support and configured to pump the liquid perfume, a nozzle connected to one end of the water pump, a spraying section having a spray outlet in fluid communication with the nozzle, a connector defining an internal connecting space and linking an upper portion of the flow channel support with a lower portion of the spraying section, a porous applicator fixed to one end of the spraying section and having a holding space to space the applicator apart from the spray outlet, an air pump configured to pump air, the air pump surrounding the flow channel support while defining an air space therebetween, and a detachable cap housing spaced apart from the applicator, enclosing an external surface of the air pump and surrounding the flow channel support.
