Solution Overview

Problem

Existing bulb lamps have complex and non-detachable connection structures for lead-in and lead-out wires, making it difficult to assemble, disassemble, repair, or replace components such as the wick, wires, lamp holder, and lampshade in decorative light strings.

Innovation Solution

A wire arranging device with lead-in and lead-out paths, including restricting structures like grooves or holes, allows for detachable arrangement of wires, reducing space occupation and enabling neat and compact bulb lamp designs, facilitating detachable connections between the wick, wires, and other components.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If both the lead-in wire and the lead-out wire are electrically connected to a plug to supply power to the bulb lamp, then the bulb lamp can function properly, but the connection structure becomes complicated and non-detachable

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveelectrical connection reliabilityVSAvoidconnection structure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The wire arranging device divides the wire management into separate functional paths: a lead-in path for the lead-in wire and a lead-out path for the lead-out wire. Each path is independently arranged and restricted, segmenting the complex wiring into manageable, organized sections that reduce structural complexity while maintaining reliable electrical connections.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The wire arranging device acts as an intermediary component between the plug and the bulb lamp components. It provides a structured interface with dedicated paths and restricting structures that organize the wires, simplifying the connection structure while ensuring reliable electrical connectivity through proper wire routing and positioning.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Stability of the object's composition

If the wick and wires are permanently assembled to other components of the bulb lamp, then the structure is stable, but it becomes difficult to repair or replace components

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvestructural stabilityVSAvoidcomponent replaceability
Core Design Contradiction:
Stability of the object's compositionVSEase of repair

Solution Approach 1:

The wire arranging device is designed as a separate, detachable component that segments the bulb lamp into modular units. The wick, wires, and other components can be independently assembled to and disassembled from the wire arranging device, maintaining structural stability during operation while enabling easy repair and replacement when needed.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The wire arranging device transitions from a static, permanent assembly to a dynamic, detachable connection system. The restricting structures provide stable positioning during use, while allowing controlled disassembly and reassembly, thus adapting between structural stability and repairability based on operational needs.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

3Device complexity

If the lead-in wire and lead-out wire are arranged without dedicated paths, then the bulb lamp structure is simpler, but the wires occupy more space and are not neatly arranged

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvewire arrangement structureVSAvoidwire occupation space
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSVolume of moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The wire arranging device applies local quality by providing specific, dedicated regions for wire placement: the lead-in path with its restricting structures for the lead-in wire, and the lead-out path with its restricting structures for the lead-out wire. This localized organization efficiently uses space within the bulb lamp while maintaining neat wire arrangement, reducing overall wire occupation volume through optimized local positioning.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality
