Angle-Adjustable Sauna Cabin with Motorized Tilt Control
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing personal sauna cabins are limited to sitting or lying down positions, failing to accommodate user preferences for different angles during sauna treatment.
Innovation Solution
An angle-adjustable sauna cabin with a cabin body supported by a base, featuring a hatch cover, a controller, and an adjusting mechanism that allows users to pre-select and adjust the inclination angle of the cabin body.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the sauna cabin is designed with a fixed structure for sitting or lying down, then the structural simplicity is maintained, but the adaptability to different user positions is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies the dynamics principle by transforming the fixed sauna cabin structure into an adjustable one. The cabin body is equipped with an adjusting mechanism that allows it to change between multiple inclination angles (horizontal, inclined, and vertical positions). This dynamic adjustment capability enables the cabin to adapt to different user positions and needs while maintaining reasonable structural complexity through the use of a motor-driven rotating shaft system.
2Adaptability or versatility
If the sauna cabin structure is simplified for easy manufacturing, then the ease of manufacture is improved, but the functionality for angle adjustment is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies segmentation by dividing the cabin into distinct functional modules: the cabin body, the base, the rotating shaft, and the motor assembly. This modular segmentation allows each component to be manufactured independently using standard manufacturing processes, then assembled together. The rotating shaft acts as a separate segment that connects the base to the cabin body, enabling angle adjustment without requiring complex integrated manufacturing.
3Ease of operation
If no angle adjustment mechanism is provided, then the device complexity is reduced, but the user comfort and therapeutic effectiveness are limited
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies the self-service principle by equipping the sauna cabin with an automatic angle adjustment system. The motor automatically rotates the cabin body to the desired angle based on user selection, eliminating the need for manual adjustment. This self-service capability enhances user comfort and convenience while keeping the adjusting mechanism relatively simple through the use of a single motor and rotating shaft system.

AI summary
An angle-adjustable sauna cabin includes a cabin body supported by a base; a hatch cover connected with the cabin body that allows opening and closing; a controller arranged at a position that allows a user in the cabin body to be touched and operated; and an adjusting mechanism used to adjust an inclination angle of the cabin body, wherein the controller is electrically connected with the adjusting mechanism, and the controller provides the inclination angle of the cabin body for the user to pre-select, so that a parameter of controlling the adjusting mechanism is obtained, and then the adjusting mechanism is controlled to regulate the cabin body to the inclination angle preselected by the user.
