Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Manufacturing precision
If numerical control machining is used for automobile die castings, then machining precision is improved, but manufacturing cost increases and machining time increases
Solution Approach 1:
The drilling machine divides the machining task into multiple independent drillers (first driller, second driller, third driller) that can simultaneously machine different holes in the automobile die casting. This segmentation of the machining function allows parallel processing, significantly improving productivity while maintaining precision through each individual driller's dedicated function.
Solution Approach 2:
The drilling machine integrates multiple drillers with adjustable index plates into a single machine system that can perform various drilling operations (different angles, different positions) on automobile die castings. This multi-functional design replaces multiple specialized machines or complex numerical control setups, improving both productivity and cost-effectiveness while maintaining adequate machining precision.
2Manufacturing precision
If numerical control machining is used for automobile die castings, then machining precision is improved, but manufacturing cost increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces complex numerical control systems with a mechanically adjustable drilling machine featuring manual index plates for angle adjustment. This mechanical substitution eliminates the need for expensive computerized control systems while maintaining drilling precision through mechanical positioning mechanisms, significantly reducing manufacturing cost.
Solution Approach 2:
The drilling machine uses adjustable index plates that allow changing of drilling parameters (angles, positions) through mechanical adjustment rather than programmed control. This parameter change capability provides flexibility in machining different hole configurations while using simple, low-cost mechanical adjustment mechanisms instead of expensive numerical control systems.
3Productivity
If multiple drillers are used for simultaneous machining, then productivity is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple drillers (first, second, and third drillers) with their respective index plates onto a single integrated machine base. This merging of multiple drilling functions into one unified structure achieves simultaneous machining for improved productivity while avoiding the complexity of multiple separate machines, as the components share common support structures and control mechanisms.
Solution Approach 2:
The drilling machine utilizes spatial arrangement in three dimensions, positioning drillers at different heights and angles (first driller at upper layer, second and third drillers at lower layer) to machine multiple holes simultaneously. This dimensional arrangement allows parallel processing operations without requiring complex horizontal expansion, efficiently using vertical space to reduce overall device complexity.
4Adaptability or versatility
If drillers are made adjustable for different angles, then adaptability is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The drilling machine incorporates adjustable index plates for each driller that enable dynamic change of drilling angles and positions. These adjustable mechanisms allow the machine to adapt to different machining requirements (different hole angles, different configurations) while using relatively simple mechanical adjustment components rather than complex programmable systems, balancing adaptability with structural simplicity.
