Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Traditional fishing lures do not optimize the shaking motion when dragged through water, limiting their attractiveness to fish.
Innovation Solution
A fishing lure design featuring two rotatably connected blades with a specific configuration, including a wire shaft, shaker blade, loop fasteners, and a spinner blade, which enhances the shaking motion by allowing for increased rotational freedom and force conversion into oscillating motion.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Device complexity
If blades are attached directly to the hook of a fishing lure, then the structure is simple, but the shaking motion is not optimized
Solution Approach 1:
The blade attachment structure is segmented into multiple independent components: a wire shaft, a shaker blade rotatably connected to the wire shaft, and a spinner blade rotatably connected to the shaker blade. This segmentation allows each component to move independently, creating optimized shaking motion while maintaining overall structural simplicity.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements dynamic connections where the shaker blade is rotatably connected to the wire shaft and the spinner blade is rotatably connected to the shaker blade. These dynamic connections allow the blades to rotate and oscillate freely, maximizing shaking motion effectiveness while keeping the attachment structure relatively simple.
2Ease of manufacture
If traditional blade attachment is used, then manufacturing is easy, but shaking motion is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The attachment assembly is divided into separate manufacturable components (wire shaft, shaker blade, spinner blade, loop fasteners) that can be manufactured independently using standard processes, then assembled through simple rotatable connections, maintaining ease of manufacture while enabling superior shaking motion.
Solution Approach 2:
Loop fasteners serve as intermediary elements between the wire shaft and shaker blade, and between the shaker blade and spinner blade. These intermediaries facilitate easy assembly and disassembly while allowing rotational movement, thus maintaining ease of manufacture and enabling optimized shaking motion.
3Adaptability or versatility
If blades are rotatably connected with loop fasteners, then rotational freedom is increased, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
Loop fasteners act as intermediary components that provide rotational freedom between connected parts. The loop structure naturally allows rotation while maintaining connection, providing adaptability without requiring complex mechanical joints or multiple fastening mechanisms.
Solution Approach 2:
The loop fastener serves multiple functions: it connects components, allows rotational movement, and can be easily opened and closed for assembly and disassembly. This multi-functionality provides high adaptability while keeping the connection structure relatively simple.

AI summary
A shaking in-line spinner fishing lure has a hook, a wire shaft, a shaker blade, a spinner blade, and at least one loop fastener. The hook is connected to a first wire end of the wire shaft, and the shaker blade is rotatably coupled to a second end of the wire shaft through the at least one loop fastener, which may include a split ring and a duo snap lock, with the duo snap lock being rotatably coupled between the shaker blade and the snap lock, which is rotatably coupled to the wire shaft. The duo snap lock constrains a leading face of the shaker blade to be oriented toward the wire shaft, producing a vigorous shaking motion while in use. A spinner blade rotatably coupled to an end of the shaker blade produces an additional spinning motion for attracting fish to bite.
