Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Long-term handheld operation of existing beauty devices causes hand fatigue, deteriorating user experience due to the need for continuous movement to irradiate skin areas, leading to uneven treatment and increased time consumption.
Innovation Solution
A beauty device with a wearable accessory that can be detachably connected to a main body, allowing it to be worn on the body for hands-free operation, featuring a housing with light inlets for pulsed light emission and optional heating, temperature sensing, and image acquisition, and various configurations for different body parts.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If users hold and operate the beauty device manually to irradiate skin areas, then the device can be controlled to treat specific areas, but long-term handheld operation causes hand fatigue and deteriorates user experience
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces the manual handheld mechanical operation system with an automated wearable system. The beauty device is transformed into a wearable accessory that can be worn on the body, eliminating the need for continuous manual holding and movement. The device automatically irradiates skin areas while worn, substituting mechanical hand operation with an automated wearable platform that frees the user's hands.
2Area of stationary object
If the light outlet area is kept small (1-4 square centimeters) for precision, then the device structure remains compact, but the irradiation area moves with device movement requiring continuous repositioning
Solution Approach 1:
The patent divides the irradiation function into multiple independent light sources distributed across the wearable device. Instead of a single movable light outlet, the device incorporates multiple light-emitting components that can simultaneously irradiate different skin areas. This segmentation allows parallel treatment of multiple regions, eliminating the need for continuous repositioning and reducing treatment time.
3Device complexity
If the device is designed for handheld operation with a fixed lamp head, then the structure remains simple, but users need to continuously move the device to cover entire skin areas
Solution Approach 1:
The patent transitions the device from a handheld three-dimensional manipulation system to a wearable surface-mounted system. By changing the operational dimension from hand-held movement in space to body-worn contact with skin, the device achieves comprehensive coverage without requiring complex repositioning maneuvers. The wearable form factor allows the device to conform to body contours and treat大面积 skin regions efficiently.
