Solution Overview

Problem

Existing wearable devices for increasing muscle strength do not effectively enhance athletic ability beyond a single repetition maximum (1RM) without additional modules.

Innovation Solution

Incorporating a light source module, vibrating module, and/or magnetic module into a nutrient holding device to stimulate mechanoreceptors and balance acupuncture points, thereby increasing muscle strength by allowing multiple repetitions beyond the initial 1RM.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Strength

If only a nutrient holding device is used, then the device structure remains simple, but the muscle strength enhancement is limited to increasing 1RM by only one repetition

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemuscle strength enhancementVSAvoiddevice structure
Core Design Contradiction:
StrengthVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent combines multiple functional modules (vibrating module, light source module, magnetic module) with the nutrient holding device into a single integrated wearable system. The vibrating module generates mechanical vibrations to stimulate mechanoreceptors, the light source module provides photonic stimulation, and the magnetic module creates magnetic fields, all working synergistically with the nutrient delivery to enhance muscle strength beyond what any single component could achieve alone, increasing 1RM by up to five repetitions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The wearable device is designed as a multi-functional system that can perform multiple functions: holding nutrients, generating vibrations, emitting light, and producing magnetic fields. This universal design allows a single device to address multiple aspects of muscle enhancement simultaneously, resolving the contradiction by showing that increased functionality does not necessarily lead to prohibitive complexity when modules are integrated thoughtfully.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

2Strength

If multiple modules (vibrating, light source, magnetic) are added to the nutrient holding device, then muscle strength increases up to five repetitions, but the device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemuscle strength enhancementVSAvoidnumber of modules
Core Design Contradiction:
StrengthVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent employs a nested structure where the vibrating module, light source module, and magnetic module are integrated within the nutrient holding device framework. Each module is contained within the overall wearable system, with components arranged in a hierarchical manner that allows compact integration. This nesting approach enables multiple functional modules to coexist in a unified device without creating excessive external complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #7Nested doll (Nesting)

3Strength

If a vibrating module is added to stimulate mechanoreceptors, then 1RM increases from one to three repetitions, but the device requires additional components

Engineering Contradiction:
Improve1RM repetition capacityVSAvoiddevice components
Core Design Contradiction:
StrengthVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The vibrating module utilizes mechanical vibration to stimulate mechanoreceptors in the muscle tissue, which triggers neural responses that enhance muscle activation and strength output. By applying controlled vibrations at specific frequencies, the system increases 1RM capacity from one to three repetitions. This principle is integrated into the wearable device, combining mechanical stimulation with nutrient delivery in a unified system.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #18Mechanical vibration

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 combination of these modules in the nutrient holding device significantly increases muscle strength, allowing users to lift weights up to five times their initial 1RM, translating to improved athletic performance.

Implementation Method 1

a light source module (5) which may be used independently to increase muscle strength. The rays of the light source will be directed toward the skin where an abundance of mechanoreceptors can be stimulated

Methodology Applied
Scientific EffectLight stimulation: Light

Implementation Method 2

a vibrating module (8) which may be used independently to increase muscle strength. The fastener ends (1) along with varying the length of the belt allows the belt to be adjusted so that it can be attached to various locations including the wrist, waist head, upper back, mid back, lower back, ankle leg, arm and abdominal or thorax regions. The multiple placement of the device is permitted by the abundance of mechanoreceptors that can be stimulated
