Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing lighting apparatuses with focused light beams lack ease of directionality, making them difficult to orient correctly for specific applications.
Innovation Solution
A lighting apparatus featuring a rotatable design with a diffuser globe and a bushing-screw system that allows the lamp body to rotate about multiple axes, enabling precise direction of the light beam while maintaining structural integrity and preventing cable tangling.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If the lighting apparatus is made fixed and stable, then structural integrity is maintained, but ease of direction is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies the dynamics principle by implementing a rotatable lamp body that can change its orientation from fixed to movable. The lamp body is designed to rotate about a longitudinal axis, allowing the light beam to be directed in different directions while maintaining structural integrity through proper mechanical design of the rotation mechanism.
2Ease of operation
If the lamp body is made rotatable for easy direction, then ease of operation is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies segmentation by dividing the lighting apparatus into distinct functional components: a fixed support structure, a rotatable lamp body, and a separate diffuser globe. This segmentation allows the rotation function to be isolated to specific components, reducing overall system complexity while enabling easy direction control.
3Ease of repair
If the diffuser globe is made removable for maintenance, then ease of repair is improved, but reliability is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by designing the diffuser globe to be pre-attached to the lamp body in a secure yet removable manner. The diffuser is positioned and fixed during assembly, ensuring proper alignment and light distribution, but can be easily removed for maintenance without compromising the overall reliability of the lighting system.

AI summary
A lighting apparatus (1) provided with a light source (20) having a directed light beam, comprising a lamp body (10) extending along a longitudinal axis X, in which body the light source (20) is housed and which is supported by a support (50). The lighting apparatus (1) is characterized in that the lamp body (10) is fixed to the support (50) by means of a releasable tensioning system, which is operable between a locked configuration in which the lamp body (10) cannot rotate with respect to the longitudinal axis (X), and a released configuration in which the lamp body (10) can rotate with respect to the longitudinal axis (X).
