Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing shelf lighting systems face challenges with messy wiring and inconvenient power supply installation, affecting maintenance and aesthetics, particularly in shopping malls where space-saving and safety are critical.
Innovation Solution
The integration of a power taking module onto the support arm of the shelf, featuring a power taking head, strip-shaped conductive member, and plug connector, allows for electrical connection directly to the power supply rail, eliminating exposed wires and simplifying the installation process.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If power supply is installed on the backlight surface of the shelf, then electrical connection is achieved, but wiring becomes messy and maintenance becomes inconvenient
Solution Approach 1:
The power supply system is segmented into modular components: power supply unit on the backlight surface, conductive members integrated into support arms, and plug connectors on the laminate. This segmentation allows each component to be independently installed and maintained, reducing overall wiring complexity while ensuring reliable electrical connection.
Solution Approach 2:
Conductive members serve as intermediaries between the power supply on the backlight surface and the plug connectors on the laminate. These conductive members are integrated into the support arm structure, acting as hidden conduits that transmit electrical power without creating messy visible wiring, thus simplifying the overall system while maintaining electrical connection reliability.
2Use of energy by moving object
If wires are threaded from irradiation surface to backlight surface, then power supply is achieved, but aesthetics deteriorates and maintenance becomes difficult
Solution Approach 1:
The conductive members are nested within the support arm structure, with the power supply system embedded in the shelf framework. This nesting hides the electrical components and wiring within the existing structural elements, eliminating exposed wires that would detract from aesthetics while ensuring power supply reaches the LED lamps on the irradiation surface.
3Reliability
If traditional power supply installation is used, then electrical connection is established, but installation time increases and efficiency decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The conductive members are pre-integrated into the support arm structure during shelf assembly, and the power supply unit is pre-installed on the backlight surface. This preliminary preparation eliminates the need for complex wiring operations during final assembly, significantly reducing installation time while ensuring reliable electrical connection is already in place when LED lamps are installed.

AI summary
A shelf lighting system has a lighting module and a power taking module, the power taking module has a power taking head, a strip-shaped conductive member, and a plug connector. The shelf lighting system integrates the power taking module of the shelf lighting system onto the support arm of the shelf, so that the power taking module can be installed simultaneously with installation of the laminate, which simplifies the entire lamp installation process and improves the installation efficiency.
