Inventions are big and small, and small inventions and big inventions and discoveries have a certain relationship with their own knowledge or level. Everyone can do small inventions, and there can be many kinds. Great inventions, such as space navigation, high-energy physical technology and basic scientific research, all need corresponding knowledge to engage in corresponding research.
There are successes and failures in inventions. One is based on knowledge, and the other is to learn from failure. Invention is not like plagiarism, but a process of flexible use, independent thinking and implementation according to what you have learned.
Inventions and creations are always innovative, always progressive and unconventional, which is the same style of inventors and scholars at home and abroad. There are twists and turns in the process of invention and creation, but as long as we have a realistic scientific attitude, a rigorous scientific style, an indomitable scientific spirit and the courage to practice, we will certainly succeed. Inventions are also traceable and can even be taught.
The methods of invention and creation are as follows: (1) serendipitous discovery (2) association (3) tapping potential (4) transplanting invention (5) reverse thinking (6) listing hope (7) listing shortcomings (8) adapting to needs (9) analogy bypass (10) analysis reference.
The above methods will be described respectively and the present invention will be introduced.
1, accidental discovery method
In daily life, there are often some accidental phenomena. We should grasp its characteristics and think about its reasons. If we know the reason clearly, we can often come up with some inventions.
Some inventions may be accidental discoveries. If we don't think about them, the accidental discovery will slip away and there will be no result. All phenomena in real life have their reasons, and so do accidental things, but we don't pay attention to them. But if we grasp it, we can find some truth and make some inventions through it.
For example, the accidental discovery of pinhole imaging principle can be developed into pinhole camera lens, myopia mask and so on.
2. Lenovo invention method
Many successful inventions are based on association. For example, pearls in mussels are formed because foreign bodies are wrapped in endocrine mucus after entering mussels. So can you produce pearls by artificially putting foreign bodies into mussels? Experiments show that it is feasible to implant figures or animal relief inserts in mussels, and pearls with figures or animal relief patterns can also grow.
3, tap the potential method
Many people may think, what's the use of discarded things? If you think deeply about whether some things have other uses and whether abandoned things are fully utilized, the way to tap the potential is to get rid of old ideas, pay attention to neglected things and make the best use of them. The specific operation is to turn waste into treasure and turn waste into treasure.
4. Transplanting the invented method
The method of transplanting invention can also be called the method of transferring invention, that is, applying known principles or familiar parts to new inventions. This technology transplantation is an important way of invention and creation, and it is often a shortcut.
For example, if the car is an existing solar cell, then the car becomes a solar car when the solar cell is applied to the car. This is a success story. The success of laminating machine is that it directly adopts the working principle of sewing machine.
5 reverse thinking method
The idea of invention should be flexible, and it is a good idea to think backwards when there is no way out. Think about it, it's best to take a maze. Most people start with their mouths and finally come out. Sometimes it is not smooth to do this, and the reverse thinking is the reverse thinking method. For example, fast clamping vise means that the clamping speed of ordinary vise is too slow, so from the point of view of fast clamping, it finally succeeds. For another example, a place where lights can't reach needs a light source, but there is no electrician material at hand or it is too late to install light wires, and the ultimate goal is to illuminate this place, then finding a mirror can solve this problem.
6. Hope enumeration method
There may be some hope for many things around us. When these hopes are realized, the invention will be successful, which is also a way of thinking for making inventions. Put forward practical methods with the learned knowledge and previous experience. This method, like defect enumeration method, is also a simple and effective method of invention topic selection.
It is inconvenient for us to grope for the socket in the dark. If there is a socket with a weak light, the above problems will be solved, and its realization process is an invention.
7, shortcomings enumeration method
Where does the topic of invention come from?
There is a very important way, that is, look at the things around you and see what is inconvenient, inappropriate and unsatisfactory. There are many things, when you get used to it, you will feel that there is nothing worth improving and inventing, but if you look at it with new eyes, you will have different views on the same thing. First of all, see if it has any shortcomings and how to overcome them. The process of overcoming it is not just the process of invention. In this way, it is easy to find the title of the invention. After improvement, the shortcomings have been overcome, and new products and inventions have been made.
8, to meet the needs of the invention method
Knowing what needs are around us is also an important way for us to find the goal of invention. After careful observation, full investigation, grasping some needs in life, work and study, and studying hard, we can create popular products.
It is best to have a pillow after swimming at the seaside, and inflatable pillows and beds came into being.
9. Touch bypass method
How about replacing this with that? It is extremely useful to ask questions before invention. In real life, the idea of looking for "substitutes" when encountering difficulties can often get you out of trouble and move towards success.
For example, black ear cultivation, black fungus was originally grown on the trunk of a dead linden tree, and later it was successfully cultivated on the slice of linden tree. Some areas are short of wood, and some people have successfully studied sawdust planting. Some areas are short of sawdust, and the research on crop straw is successful. It is proved to be feasible by experiments.
10, analysis and reference method
Analyzing the birth process of some inventions can be roughly divided into three stages. First, we carefully observe the things around us. Secondly, we find some valuable features. Finally, we apply this feature to our own research. Inventions produced in this way are also very common.
How to grasp the characteristics of invention is a common problem faced by inventors.
1. Enthusiasm is the driving force of invention. Only by being keen on work, career and occupation can we make inventions. It encourages people to think. If there is no ideological pressure, idle people can't talk about any inventions at all. Have lofty aspirations for career, work and ideal.
So what criteria can you use to find what you need from many things? It depends on your own knowledge, which varies from person to person. Generally speaking, there are the following items: cheap, labor-saving, practical, beautiful and fashionable. When measured by these standards, we should pay attention not to consider the problem only from our own standpoint, but mainly for others.
Second, find ways to reduce costs.
If you want to make your invention the greatest success, you must reduce costs, reduce working procedures, save energy and reduce consumption.
Three, meet the requirements of others, can be welcomed by all, only meet the above conditions, can be accepted.
Nothing can be the object of technological innovation, even the simplest daily necessities. Everything may have defects, and there may be weaknesses behind the advantages. The improvement of defects and the overcoming of weaknesses are the production of inventions.
