Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Stability of the object's composition
If multiple components and fasteners are used to assemble the circuit board, carrying member, and touch-control conductor, then the structural stability is improved, but the device complexity and manufacturing time increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent integrates the circuit board, carrying member, and touch-control conductor into a single integrated structure. The hollowed portion of the touch-control conductor directly receives and secures the LED module, eliminating the need for separate fasteners and reducing assembly steps while maintaining structural stability.
Solution Approach 2:
The touch-control conductor serves multiple functions: it acts as both the touch control element and the structural carrier for the LED module. The hollowed portion provides both mechanical support and electrical connection pathways, reducing the number of separate components needed.
2Stability of the object's composition
If multiple components and fasteners are used to assemble the circuit board, carrying member, and touch-control conductor, then the structural stability is improved, but the manufacturing time increases
Solution Approach 1:
The integrated design allows the LED module to be directly inserted into the hollowed portion of the touch-control conductor, which is then soldered to the circuit board in a single operation. This eliminates multiple assembly steps involving separate fasteners and reduces overall manufacturing time while maintaining structural integrity.
Solution Approach 2:
The hollowed portion is pre-formed in the touch-control conductor during its fabrication process, allowing the LED module to be directly inserted and secured without requiring separate mounting operations. This preliminary structuring reduces assembly time and simplifies the manufacturing process.
3Stability of the object's composition
If multiple components and fasteners are used to assemble the circuit board, carrying member, and touch-control conductor, then the structural stability is improved, but the device size increases
Solution Approach 1:
By merging the carrying member and touch-control conductor into a single integrated component with a hollowed portion, the patent eliminates the need for separate fasteners and mounting brackets. This integration significantly reduces the overall device volume while maintaining the structural stability needed to secure the LED module.
Solution Approach 2:
The LED module is nested within the hollowed portion of the touch-control conductor, which itself is mounted on the circuit board. This nested arrangement maximizes space utilization and minimizes the overall device footprint while ensuring stable structural support.
4Stability of the object's composition
If fasteners are used to fix the components together, then the structural stability is improved, but the ease of manufacture decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The integrated design eliminates the need for separate fastening operations. The touch-control conductor is directly soldered to the circuit board in the same process used to mount other electronic components, simplifying the manufacturing process while maintaining secure structural attachment.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces mechanical fastening systems (screws, clips, or other physical fasteners) with electrical soldering connections. This substitution simplifies the manufacturing process by using standard electronic assembly techniques rather than requiring separate mechanical fastening operations.

AI summary
A touch light-emitting module having hallowed portion for incapsulation resin and a manufacturing method thereof are disclosed. The touch light-emitting module includes a printed circuit board and a touch-control conductor. The printed circuit board has a top surface on which a touch-control IC and a luminous unit that is electrically connected are disposed. The touch-control conductor includes a hollowed portion. The touch-control conductor is coated, on the bottom thereof, with a conductive material to combine with the top surface of the printed circuit board, so that the touch-control IC and the luminous unit are located in the hollowed portion. An encapsulation resin is then injected into a space between the printed circuit board and the hollowed portion to complete encapsulation. As such, the module offers a simplified structure to achieve an effect of minimization, and simplifies the manufacturing process and reduces the working time to thereby enhance the yield.
