Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If existing spotlights use reserved patterns or texts on the lamp surface for projection, then pattern projection capability is achieved, but the lamp cannot simultaneously provide effective brightening and aesthetic radial pattern radiation
Solution Approach 1:
The lampshade is segmented into multiple outer convex lens portions (at least three) that are distributed around the peripheral side, each corresponding to an inner recess. This segmentation allows different regions of the lampshade to perform different functions: some areas provide brightening while others radiate aesthetic radial patterns, thereby achieving multi-use effects.
Solution Approach 2:
Different portions of the lampshade are given different optical properties. The outer convex lens portions are designed with specific curvature and positioning to refract and converge light into radial patterns, while other areas maintain simple transparency for brightening. This local differentiation enables the lamp to simultaneously achieve both brightening and aesthetic radial pattern radiation.
2Illumination intensity
If existing color-changing or simple pure-color brightening lamps are used, then brightening function is provided, but beautification effects are relatively simple and cannot meet diverse application requirements
Solution Approach 1:
The lampshade incorporates outer convex lens portions with curved surfaces that refract light to form radial patterns. The convex curvature of these lens portions is key to transforming ordinary light emission into aesthetically pleasing radial patterns, thereby enhancing beautification effects while maintaining the brightening function.
Solution Approach 2:
The invention adds a new dimension to light radiation by creating radial patterns that extend outward from the lampshade. The inner recesses and corresponding outer convex lens portions work together to project light patterns in multiple directions, transforming simple omnidirectional illumination into structured radial patterns that enhance visual appeal.
3Adaptability or versatility
If outer convex lens portions are added to the lampshade to refract and converge light into radial beams, then aesthetic radial pattern radiation is achieved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The outer convex lens portions and inner recesses are integrated into a single lampshade structure, merging the light-refracting elements with the lampshade body. This integration reduces the need for separate components and simplifies assembly, thereby achieving radial pattern radiation without excessive complexity increase.
Solution Approach 2:
The lampshade serves multiple functions simultaneously: it provides structural support, enables light refraction through outer convex lens portions, creates radial patterns through inner recesses, and maintains transparency for brightening. This multi-functionality reduces the need for additional separate components, keeping the overall device complexity manageable.
Applied Scientific Principles

The lamp achieves a more impressive and aesthetically pleasing radial pattern, meeting diverse application needs and facilitating further innovation and development in the lighting industry.
Implementation Method 1
the light emitted by each of the luminous lamp beads respectively enters the outer convex lens portions located on both sides of each corresponding inner recess and then is refracted and converged through the outer convex lens portions
Implementation Method 2
refracted and converged through the outer convex lens portions on both sides of each inner recess to form a radiation beam

AI summary
A lamp capable of radiating radial pattern is disclosed, comprising a base, a transparent lampshade provided with multiple outer convex lens portions on its circumferential side and an inner recesses provided between every two adjacent outer convex lens portions, and a luminous lamp assembly located between the base and the transparent lampshade and provided with multiple luminous lamp beads. Each lamp bead is arranged corresponding to each inner recess, so that light emitted by each lamp bead respectively enters the outer convex lens portion located on both sides of each corresponding inner recess and then is refracted and converged thereby to form a radiation beam located outside the transparent lampshade and gradually shrinking from the inside to the outside, thus to radiate a brightening pattern in a circumferentially radial shape, which can greatly improve the aesthetic property and also bring people a more impressive visual impact.
