Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing kitchen ovens suffer from reflectors that are not securely fixed above the heating plate, leading to potential safety hazards and suboptimal baking results due to falling reflectors during use or movement.
Innovation Solution
A rotatable multi-functional reflection heating plate structure with a reflector connected via a rotating shaft to the oven, ensuring secure fixation and rotation around this shaft, comprising a heating plate, electrical heating pipe, and fixed board, with the reflector wrapped on the outer periphery and the heating component positioned between inner boards.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of manufacture
If the reflector is directly placed above the heating plate without being fixed, then the structure is simple and cost-effective, but the reflector falls down during use or movement, causing safety hazards and affecting baking results
Solution Approach 1:
The reflector is designed to be rotatable around the rotating shaft, transforming from a completely fixed structure to a dynamic structure that can rotate. This allows the reflector to be adjusted to different positions while still being securely connected to the heating assembly, solving the problem of the reflector falling down while maintaining structural simplicity
Solution Approach 2:
The rotating shaft serves as an intermediary component between the reflector and the heating assembly. It provides a secure connection point that prevents the reflector from falling while allowing rotational movement. This intermediary element resolves the contradiction by providing both stability and flexibility
2Reliability
If the reflector is securely fixed above the heating plate, then safety hazards are eliminated and heat reflection is improved, but the structure becomes more complex and costly
Solution Approach 1:
Instead of using a complex fixed structure, the patent employs a simple rotating shaft that allows the reflector to rotate. This dynamic design achieves secure fixation while maintaining structural simplicity, as the rotating shaft is a straightforward mechanical component that does not add significant complexity to the assembly
Solution Approach 2:
The rotating shaft serves multiple functions: it secures the reflector to prevent falling, allows rotational adjustment for optimal positioning, and maintains the reflector's connection to the heating assembly. This multi-functionality eliminates the need for additional complex fixing mechanisms
