Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional lamps are either too large for convenient carrying, lack adjustable lighting angles and ranges, or fail to meet multi-occasion needs, with some being too bright but not portable, and others too portable but lacking versatility.

Innovation Solution

A rotary folding lamp with multiple light emitting parts that can be rotated and folded, allowing 360° folding, adjustable angles, and various fixing methods, featuring a support assembly, light emitting assembly, rotation assembly, and folding assembly, with manual or automatic control for different lighting modes and ranges.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If the lamp is made compact and portable, then ease of carrying is improved, but lighting range and adjustability deteriorate

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of carryingVSAvoidlighting range and adjustability
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The lamp body is divided into multiple segments that can be folded relative to each other. The support assembly includes a first support arm and second support arm that can fold between extended and retracted positions, allowing the lamp to transition between a compact portable state and an extended lighting state, thus resolving the contradiction between portability and lighting range.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The lamp employs dynamic folding mechanisms with rotation assemblies that allow the support arms to rotate and fold at multiple angles. The rotation assembly enables the support arms to rotate between 0° and 360°, and the folding assembly allows folding at multiple angles, creating a dynamic structure that adapts between compact and extended configurations to balance portability and lighting versatility.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

2Device complexity

If the lamp has fixed lighting angle, then device complexity is reduced, but adaptability to different occasions deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvestructure simplicityVSAvoidlighting angle adjustability
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The rotation assembly enables the support arms to rotate dynamically between 0° and 360°, allowing the lighting angle to be adjusted according to different occasions. This dynamic rotation mechanism provides adaptability while maintaining relatively simple structural design, resolving the contradiction between simplicity and adjustability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The lamp is designed with universal folding and rotating capabilities that allow it to serve multiple functions: portable lighting, adjustable angle lighting, and compact storage. The same folding and rotating mechanisms enable the lamp to adapt to various lighting scenarios without requiring multiple specialized devices, thus resolving the contradiction between simplicity and versatility.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

3Adaptability or versatility

If the lamp uses multiple light emitting parts with different lighting modes, then adaptability to different occasions is improved, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvelighting modes and rangesVSAvoidstructure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The light emitting assembly is segmented into multiple independent light emitting parts (first light emitting part, second light emitting part, third light emitting part) that can be controlled separately. Each light emitting part can be activated independently through the control assembly, allowing different lighting modes and ranges without requiring a completely complex integrated system, thus resolving the contradiction between versatility and complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The control assembly provides universal control for multiple light emitting parts, enabling various lighting modes (single light emission, multiple light emissions, different brightness levels) through a unified control system. This multi-functional design achieves adaptability to different occasions while avoiding the need for separate control mechanisms for each light emitting part, thus balancing versatility with structural complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)
