Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional vacuum buckets with batteries installed on the bucket cover for power supply are inconvenient to recharge when the battery runs out.

Innovation Solution

An integrated box for vacuum buckets, containing a vacuum pumping assembly, control circuit board, and storage battery, with a charging port, is detachably placed on the bucket cover, allowing independent operation and charging, and the vacuum pumping assembly is housed inside the box, simplifying the bucket cover's structure.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If the battery is installed on the bucket cover to supply power to electrical components, then the power supply function is achieved, but the device complexity increases and maintenance becomes inconvenient

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveconvenience of rechargingVSAvoidstructure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges the battery, vacuum pumping assembly, and control circuit board into a single integrated box. This consolidation eliminates the need for separate battery installation on the bucket cover, simplifies the overall structure, and makes power supply management more convenient through a unified charging port on the integrated box.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent segments the vacuum bucket system into two independent parts: the bucket cover with electrical components and the integrated box containing power supply and vacuum pumping functions. This segmentation allows the integrated box to be independently charged and maintained without affecting the bucket cover, improving ease of operation and maintenance.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Ease of manufacture

If the battery is installed on the bucket cover, then power supply is provided, but the bucket cover structure becomes complex and heavy

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesimplicity of structureVSAvoidbucket cover weight
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSWeight of stationary object

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts the battery and vacuum pumping assembly from the bucket cover and places them in a separate integrated box. This extraction simplifies the bucket cover structure, reduces its weight, and allows the power supply components to be maintained independently in the integrated box with a separate charging port.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

3Ease of repair

If the battery is installed on the bucket cover, then power supply function is achieved, but maintenance and recharging become inconvenient

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of maintenanceVSAvoidintegration level
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of repairVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the system into the bucket cover and the integrated box, allowing the power supply and vacuum pumping functions to be maintained independently in the integrated box. The integrated box has its own charging port, enabling convenient recharging without disassembling the bucket cover, thus improving ease of repair while managing integration level.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation
