Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing spa machines with built-in lights are costly, difficult to maintain, and often cause discomfort due to direct light exposure, making them unaffordable and impractical for ordinary users.
Innovation Solution
A situational air bubble spa machine that includes a control host with a light emitting element, allowing users to control air flow and bubble density, and adjust light settings to avoid direct eye exposure, all while being portable and easy to use.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Illumination intensity
If a bathing device with built-in lights is used, then situational lighting effect is achieved, but the cost increases and maintenance becomes difficult
Solution Approach 1:
The lighting function is separated from the bathing device structure. Instead of embedding lights into the bathtub or fixed installation, the patent uses a portable bubble bathmat with detachable LED lights that can be independently controlled and replaced, simplifying maintenance while achieving the desired lighting effect.
Solution Approach 2:
A control host serves as an intermediary device that manages both the lighting and bubble generation functions. This centralized control unit allows users to adjust lighting modes and bubble density without dealing with complex wiring or multiple separate controls, reducing maintenance complexity.
2Illumination intensity
If lights are installed on the upper side of the bathing device, then lighting coverage is improved, but direct light exposure to user's eyes causes discomfort
Solution Approach 1:
The lighting system offers multiple dynamic modes including dimmable brightness levels and different lighting patterns (e.g., breathing lights, fading effects). Users can adjust the lighting intensity and select modes that reduce direct eye exposure while maintaining adequate ambient illumination for relaxation.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements periodic lighting patterns such as pulsing, fading, and breathing effects that create gentle, non-stationary light exposure. These dynamic lighting sequences reduce the harshness of direct light while maintaining visual appeal and atmospheric effect.
3Ease of operation
If a fixed bathing device is installed, then massage function is provided, but portability and flexibility are reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The bubble bathmat integrates multiple functions into a single portable unit: bubble generation for massage, LED lighting for atmosphere, and wireless control for convenience. This multi-functional design eliminates the need for separate fixed bathing devices while providing comparable massage capabilities that can be used anywhere with a bathtub.
Solution Approach 2:
The system allows users to adjust key parameters such as bubble density, air flow rate, and lighting intensity through the control host. These adjustable parameters enable the portable device to adapt to different user preferences and bathing conditions, matching the versatility of fixed installations.
Applied Scientific Principles
This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case
The spa machine provides a comfortable and relaxing bathing experience by controlling bubble density and light settings, making it affordable and accessible to a wider audience, including those on business trips.
Implementation Method 1
the situational light of the situational air bubble spa machine can be rendered in the entire bathing environment through the refraction of the water
Implementation Method 2
a bathing device is a common massage equipment that can output air bubbles in the water, allowing to massage the user's body through the continuous output of bubbles

AI summary
A situational air bubble spa machine is provided, which includes a control host, an air provider, pipe fittings, and a bubble bathmat. The control host is communicated to the air provider. The air provider and the bubble bathmat are connected through the pipe fittings. The control host includes a main body, a light emitting element arranged inside the main body, a control button set arranged on the top surface of the main body. The control button set includes a startup/shutdown button which is used to regulate the startup/shutdown of the control host, an intensity button is used to regulate the air flow provided by the air provider to the bubble bathmat, thereby regulating the bubble density, and a lighting button is used to control the startup, shutdown, and lighting mode of the light emitting elements, and a fixing bracket is arranged on the bottom surface of the main body.
