Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional vacuum cleaning devices for construction sites have inefficient component arrangements that lead to unnecessary space, complex cabling, increased maintenance, and power losses due to rigid vertical or horizontal alignments, resulting in a lack of compactness, manageability, and effective air routing.
Innovation Solution
The vacuum cleaning device features a triangular arrangement of components, with the turbine, filter, and filter cleaning unit positioned obliquely relative to each other, forming a compact and efficient configuration that allows for simplified sealing, reduced part count, and optimized air routing, enabling the filter to be easily removed from the rear side.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Volume of moving object
If vacuum cleaner components are arranged vertically or horizontally in conventional vacuum cleaning devices, then the components can be positioned relative to the side walls, but unnecessary free volume is created and compactness is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies nesting by arranging the turbine, filter, and filter cleaning unit in a compact triangular configuration where components are positioned closely together and nested within the vacuum cleaner head volume, eliminating unnecessary free spaces while maintaining accessibility for maintenance
Solution Approach 2:
The patent transitions from conventional vertical or horizontal arrangements to a triangular spatial configuration that optimizes three-dimensional space utilization, positioning components at specific angles and locations to eliminate dead volume while maintaining serviceability
2Device complexity
If vacuum cleaner components are arranged vertically or horizontally, then alignment is simplified, but complex cabling and sealing are required
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the turbine, filter, and filter cleaning unit into a integrated triangular assembly where cabling and sealing paths are minimized by positioning components adjacent to each other, reducing the number of connections required compared to distributed vertical or horizontal arrangements
3Loss of energy
If vacuum cleaner components are aligned vertically or horizontally, then manufacturing is simplified, but power losses increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements preliminary optimization of air routing paths by pre-positioning the turbine and filter in a triangular configuration that minimizes flow path length and resistance, reducing power losses before the vacuum cleaner enters operation
