Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If traditional candles are used for lighting, then lighting function is provided, but safety hazards and troublesome combustion occur
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces the chemical combustion system of traditional candles with an electronic lighting system. The electronic candle wick contains LED lights that illuminate without combustion, eliminating smoke, soot, and fire hazards while maintaining the visual effect of a lit candle.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent extracts the harmful combustion function from the candle system and retains only the decorative lighting function. By removing the wax oil and flame components, the design eliminates safety hazards while preserving the aesthetic purpose of candlelight decoration.
2Ease of manufacture
If most electronic candles emit light and play music, then electronic lighting function is provided, but ornamental value is too low
Solution Approach 1:
The patent incorporates a rotating mechanism that causes the candle wick to rotate dynamically. This rotation creates changing light patterns and movements, transforming the static electronic candle into a dynamic decorative piece with enhanced ornamental value and visual appeal.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent adds rotational motion as a new dimension to the electronic candle, transforming it from a simple light-emitting device to a three-dimensional dynamic display. The rotating candle wick creates spatial light patterns that enhance decorative functionality.
3Illumination intensity
If simple light emission is used in electronic candles, then basic lighting function is provided, but dynamic and stereoscopic lighting effect is insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
The patent uses a rotating candle wick mechanism to create dynamic lighting effects. The rotation transforms static light emission into dynamic light patterns, providing stereoscopic and changing lighting effects without requiring complex multi-component systems.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent employs a hemispherical cover structure that refracts and reflects light in multiple directions. This curved geometry creates complex lighting patterns and stereoscopic effects by manipulating light paths through refraction and reflection surfaces.
Applied Scientific Principles
This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case
The solution enhances the ornamental value by providing a dynamically changing, stereoscopic light display that increases the aesthetic appeal and safety by eliminating combustion hazards.
Implementation Method 1
the hemispherical cover is formed by a plurality of triangles which are bent and spliced in different angles, such that light irradiated thereon is refracted and reflected towards different directions
Implementation Method 2
light irradiated thereon is refracted and reflected towards different directions
Implementation Method 3
six LED lamps in two groups are arranged on the light source plate
