Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If multiple conductive parts are used for electrical connection, then electrical connection reliability is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple conductive parts into a single integrated elastic member with multiple conductive areas. This single elastic member simultaneously provides multiple electrical connections between the sensor and transmitter, reducing the number of separate conductive components while maintaining reliable electrical connections across all signal paths.
Solution Approach 2:
The elastic member serves multiple functions simultaneously: it acts as a mechanical connector through clamping forces, provides multiple electrical conduction paths through its conductive areas, and offers insulation between different signal lines. This multi-functionality reduces overall device complexity while maintaining connection reliability.
2Reliability
If multiple conductive parts are used for electrical connection, then electrical connection reliability is improved, but ease of operation deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
By merging multiple conductive parts into a single elastic member, the patent enables users to disassemble and replace the transmitter without risking damage to multiple separate conductive components. The integrated design ensures that the conductive pathways remain intact during routine maintenance operations.
Solution Approach 2:
The elastic member's flexible nature allows it to deform during assembly and disassembly operations, accommodating the mechanical movements required for transmitter replacement. This flexibility enables easy operation while maintaining stable electrical connections throughout the process.
3Reliability
If multiple conductive parts are used for electrical connection, then electrical connection reliability is improved, but loss of information increases
Solution Approach 1:
The integration of multiple conductive pathways into a single elastic member eliminates the risk of individual conductive parts becoming damaged or disconnected during device operation or maintenance. This ensures continuous, reliable data transmission from the sensor to the transmitter without interruption or data loss.
Solution Approach 2:
Instead of making the conductive parts removable or replaceable, the patent makes the elastic member a permanent, integral part of the sensor assembly. This inversion of the typical design approach ensures that the conductive pathways remain undisturbed during transmitter replacement, preventing data loss while allowing easy transmitter changes.
