Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If direct striking method is used to detect anchor rod, then the detection process is simple, but the ability to intuitively understand impact resistance and deformation from multiple aspects is lost

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedetection process simplicityVSAvoidimpact resistance information
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces a steel pipe as an intermediary component that simulates the concrete structure surrounding the anchor rod in actual applications. This mediator allows the impact force to be transmitted through a more realistic structure, enabling comprehensive observation of deformation and impact resistance effects that direct striking cannot provide.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The test device creates a copied model of the actual anchor rod installation environment using the steel pipe to represent concrete structure. This copying approach allows comprehensive testing of impact resistance while maintaining the essential characteristics of the real application scenario, providing intuitive understanding without requiring actual field testing.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

2Ease of operation

If single detection method is used for anchor rod, then the detection process is convenient, but the comprehensive evaluation of impact resistance performance is affected

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedetection convenienceVSAvoidimpact resistance evaluation accuracy
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSMeasurement precision

Solution Approach 1:

The detection system is segmented into multiple functional components: the kinetic energy application generator for applying controlled impact, the steel pipe for simulating concrete structure, strain gauges for measuring deformation, and the tray for supporting and positioning. This segmentation enables comprehensive measurement of various parameters while maintaining operational convenience through modular design.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The test device integrates multiple functions into a single system: it can apply impact forces, simulate concrete structure, measure deformation through strain gauges, and support the anchor rod assembly. This multi-functionality allows comprehensive evaluation of impact resistance performance without requiring multiple separate detection methods.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)
