Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If comb teeth are added to separate hair, then hair separation is improved, but laser light output is blocked and irradiation efficiency is reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvehair separationVSAvoidirradiation efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent removes the comb teeth structure from the device. Instead of having protruding comb teeth that block laser light, the device uses a smooth contact surface that allows laser light to pass through unobstructed while still providing hair separation function through the overall device structure.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces a transparent or translucent plate as an intermediary structure. This plate allows laser light to pass through while providing the necessary structural support and hair separation function, replacing the traditional comb teeth that directly blocked the light path.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Ease of operation

If comb teeth configuration is used, then hair separation is achieved, but distance between laser module and scalp increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvehair separationVSAvoiddistance from scalp
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSLength of stationary object

Solution Approach 1:

The patent removes the comb teeth that created the distance gap between the device and scalp. The smooth contact surface design allows the laser modules to be positioned closer to the scalp, eliminating the distance increase caused by protruding comb teeth.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

3Reliability

If traditional TO-CAN packaging is used for laser modules, then reliability is maintained, but processing speed is slow and cost is high

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvelaser module reliabilityVSAvoidprocessing speed
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent changes the packaging type of laser modules from traditional TO-CAN to SMD (Surface Mount Device) packaging. This parameter change enables faster processing speeds and lower costs while maintaining the necessary reliability for hair growth treatment applications.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

4Reliability

If traditional TO-CAN packaging is used, then reliability is maintained, but device volume and weight increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvelaser module reliabilityVSAvoiddevice volume
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSVolume of moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The patent changes the packaging type from TO-CAN to SMD, which significantly reduces the volume and weight of each laser module. The SMD packaging is much more compact, allowing for a smaller overall device size while maintaining reliability for the intended application.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes
