Variable Bidet Nozzle Symmetric Pressure Arcuate Spray
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional bidet nozzles waste water by ejecting a circular jet that covers a wider area than needed, leading to increased drying time due to the larger area being washed and dried.
Innovation Solution
A bidet with a variable nozzle system, comprising a linear channel, a nozzle part, and a variable channel that allows for adjustable water flow, enabling the water to be pressurized symmetrically and ejected in an arcuate shape, focusing the wash area and reducing the drying area.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If a conventional circular nozzle is used, then water is ejected in a circular symmetric pattern, but the water jet covers an area wider than needed causing waste and increased drying time
Solution Approach 1:
The nozzle structure is designed with different local qualities: the variable channel creates asymmetric water pressure distribution on opposite sides of the nozzle part, transforming the uniform circular spray into a focused arcuate pattern that concentrates water flow precisely on the target washing area, thereby reducing water waste while maintaining effective washing coverage
Solution Approach 2:
The nozzle system incorporates a variable channel that dynamically adjusts water flow characteristics by pressurizing water on opposite sides of the nozzle part, enabling the spray pattern to change from a static circular symmetric pattern to a dynamic arcuate pattern that can be controlled to match the actual washing area requirements, thus reducing water waste

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 bidet efficiently directs water to the intended washing area, reducing the drying time by minimizing the area that needs to be dried after washing.
Implementation Method 1
a variable channel connected to opposite sides of the nozzle part and feeding the water to the nozzle part while the water to be ejected is pressurized symmetrically on opposite sides of the nozzle part

AI summary
A bidet having a variable nozzle. The bidet includes a linear channel connected to a feed channel through which water is fed, a nozzle part connected to the linear channel and ejecting the water toward an area of the human body to be washed, and a variable channel connected to opposite sides of the nozzle part and feeding the water to the nozzle part while the water to be ejected is pressurized symmetrically on the opposite sides of the nozzle part. Thereby, the bidet can adjust a spreading angle of the water ejected from the nozzle part according to an area to be washed.
