Solution Overview

Problem

Existing projection devices require additional mounting bases for multiple projection lamps, leading to reduced mounting efficiency and low space utilization.

Innovation Solution

A projection device with at least two projection lamps mounted on a base with extendable connecting portions, allowing for multiple lamps to be positioned and angled differently, enhancing coverage and image quality while improving mounting efficiency and space utilization.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If additional mounting bases are used to mount multiple projection lamps, then the projection device can achieve multiple projection patterns, but the mounting efficiency is reduced and space utilization rate is low

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemultiple projection patternsVSAvoidmounting efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent combines multiple mounting functions into a single integrated base structure. The base includes a first mounting portion for the first projection lamp and a second mounting portion for the second projection lamp, both integrated into one base component. This merging of multiple mounting functions into a single base resolves the contradiction by enabling multiple projection patterns while improving mounting efficiency and space utilization compared to using separate mounting bases for each lamp.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

2Adaptability or versatility

If additional mounting bases are used to mount multiple projection lamps, then the projection device can achieve multiple projection patterns, but the space utilization rate is low

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemultiple projection patternsVSAvoidmounting space
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSArea of stationary object

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges multiple mounting portions into a single integrated base structure, where the first mounting portion and second mounting portion are both part of one base component. This consolidation reduces the total mounting space required compared to using separate mounting bases for each projection lamp, thereby improving space utilization while maintaining the capability to achieve multiple projection patterns.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

3Ease of operation

If multiple projection lamps are mounted on separate bases, then each lamp can be positioned independently, but the device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepositioning flexibilityVSAvoidnumber of mounting bases
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The base is segmented into multiple functional mounting portions within a single integrated structure. The first mounting portion and second mounting portion are distinct segments that can independently position the first and second projection lamps respectively, while remaining part of the same base component. This segmentation provides positioning flexibility for each lamp while avoiding the complexity of multiple separate mounting bases.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation
