Detachable Swimming Goggle Frame with Trumpet Connection
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional swimming goggles lack customization options, particularly in frame colors and lens myopic degrees, and are inconvenient for use in both indoor and outdoor swimming environments, failing to meet the diverse needs of swimmers, including younger users who prefer varied designs.
Innovation Solution
A swimming goggle structure with a detachable design featuring trumpet-like connection holes, barbed connection pillars, and compression-fitting mechanisms allows for easy assembly and disassembly, enabling interchangeable frames and lenses in various colors and myopic degrees, along with alignment devices for precise assembly and comfortable fit.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If conventional symmetrical design is used, then manufacturing simplicity is maintained, but customization options are limited
Solution Approach 1:
The swimming goggle is divided into separate modules: frame, lens, protection pad, and head strap. Each component can be independently selected and assembled, enabling customization of colors, lens specifications (including different myopic degrees for left and right eyes), and other features without requiring a completely different design for each configuration.
2Adaptability or versatility
If detachable assembly is implemented, then customization flexibility is improved, but assembly reliability may be compromised
Solution Approach 1:
The connection element features connection pillars that insert into connection holes with trumpet-like shapes. The nested structure includes locating flanges that fit into circular grooves, and barbs that engage with fastening notches, creating a multi-level nested assembly that ensures firm connection while maintaining detachability for customization.
Solution Approach 2:
The connection element acts as an intermediary component between the frame and other parts. It includes connection pillars with barbs that engage with fastening notches in the frame, and locating flanges that align with circular grooves, providing a reliable mechanical interface that enables both firm assembly and easy disassembly for customization.
3Adaptability or versatility
If single-purpose design is used, then device simplicity is maintained, but adaptability to different swimming environments is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The detachable design allows a single goggle frame to serve multiple functions by accepting different lens configurations. Users can assemble clear lenses for indoor swimming and tinted/sun-shading lenses for outdoor swimming, eliminating the need to carry multiple dedicated goggles for different environments.

AI summary
A swimming goggle structure comprises a left frame, a right frame, a connection element, two protection pads, and two packing frames. Each of the two protection pads has a circular body and the circular body is arranged with a face contact circumference, characterized in that the two packing frames can assemble the left frame, the right frame and two protection pads as a firm structure, and that the left(right) frame has an inclined guide surface for convenience in disassembly of the packing frames from the left(right) frame, and that a connection base of the left(right) frame has a connection hole of trumpet-like shape, so that two connection pillars of the connection element is designed with incorporation of a truncated guide surface which allows the connection element to be assembled and disassembled in a convenience way. Besides, such a structural also provides the wearer with more component options during assembly.
