Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If the film forming component rotates horizontally to form bubble films, then the bubble film formation function is achieved, but the structure becomes complex requiring annular external gear processing

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvebubble film formation functionVSAvoidannular external gear structure

Core Design Contradiction:

Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

Instead of rotating the film forming component horizontally as in conventional designs, this invention inverts the approach by keeping the film forming component stationary and rotating the film scraping component horizontally. The film scraping component picks up bubble water from the liquid outlet and sweeps it across the bubbling holes to form bubble films, eliminating the need for complex annular external gear processing on the film forming component.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #13The other way round (Inversion)

Solution Approach 2:

The film scraping component acts as an intermediary element between the liquid outlet and the bubbling holes. It picks up bubble water from the liquid outlet and transports it across the bubbling holes to form bubble films, replacing the need for the film forming component itself to rotate and directly contact the liquid.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Ease of operation

If the film forming component rotates horizontally, then bubble films can be formed, but processing difficulty increases due to annular external gear requirements

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvebubble film formationVSAvoidprocessing difficulty

Core Design Contradiction:

Ease of operationVSEase of manufacture

Solution Approach 1:

The invention inverts the conventional rotation mechanism by keeping the film forming component stationary and rotating the film scraping component instead. This inversion eliminates the need for difficult-to-process annular external gears on the film forming component, significantly reducing manufacturing complexity while maintaining the bubble film formation function.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #13The other way round (Inversion)

3Productivity

If a fan directly supplies air to a rotating film forming component, then a large number of bubbles are produced, but the structure becomes more complex

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvebubble production quantityVSAvoidoverall structure

Core Design Contradiction:

ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The invention extracts the rotation function from the film forming component and assigns it to the film scraping component instead. The film forming component remains stationary with its bubbling holes fixed in place, while the film scraping component rotates horizontally to perform the film formation action. This separation simplifies the overall structure by eliminating the need for complex gear mechanisms on the film forming component.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)
