Solution Overview

Problem

Existing wall lamps are inconvenient to mount and dismount, and their illumination direction cannot be arbitrarily adjusted after installation, posing safety hazards and limitations in light path direction.

Innovation Solution

A wall lamp design featuring a mounting box and lamp bead seat of a cuboid structure arranged in a pivotal mode to form a level adjusting knob, allowing easy adjustment of illumination direction, with a power adapter within the mounting box and cooling fins for heat dissipation, and a recessed surface to protect the lamp beads from contaminants and impacts.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If the wall lamp is installed in a closed space with the power adapter protected inside, then the power adapter is protected from damage, but the wall lamp becomes extremely inconvenient to mount and dismount

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepower adapter protectionVSAvoidmounting and dismounting convenience
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The wall lamp is divided into separable components: the lamp body and the mounting base. The mounting base with power adapter can be independently installed on the wall, while the lamp body can be attached or detached. This segmentation allows the power adapter to remain protected within the mounting base structure while enabling convenient assembly and disassembly of the lamp unit.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Reliability

If the wall lamp is fixed to the wall with power supply connected first, then the power adapter is protected, but the wall lamp may easily slip during installation causing safety hazards

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepower adapter protectionVSAvoidslippage and safety hazards
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The mounting base with power adapter is pre-installed on the wall before connecting the lamp body. The mounting base includes pre-positioned mounting holes and a stable base structure that ensures proper alignment and prevents slippage during the installation process. This preliminary setup of the mounting infrastructure eliminates the safety hazards associated with handling the entire lamp during installation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Device complexity

If the wall lamp uses a fixed installation method, then the structure is simple, but the illumination direction cannot be adjusted after installation

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinstallation structure simplicityVSAvoidillumination direction adjustment
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The connection between the lamp body and mounting base is designed to be adjustable rather than fixed. The lamp body can be rotated and positioned at different angles relative to the mounting base, allowing the illumination direction to be changed after installation. This dynamic adjustment capability is achieved through a connection structure that permits angular movement while maintaining secure attachment.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

AI summary

The invention discloses wall lamp with a variable illumination direction, including lamp beads, a lamp bead seat, a mounting box, and a power adapter. The power adapter is installed within the mounting box; the lamp bead seat is of a cuboid structure, and an accommodating cavity is formed in the cuboid structure, the mounting box is located in the accommodating cavity. The lamp beads are arranged on an outer wall of one side surface of the cuboid structure. A first connector is arranged on an inner side wall of the lamp bead seat, and a second connector is arranged on the mounting box. The first connector is connected to the second connector in a pivotal way. A side surface of the first connector pushes against a side surface of the second connector, so that a level adjusting knob is formed by the mounting box and the lamp bead seat.
