Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a detection system is customized according to customer requirements for different divisions, then the system can meet specific workflow needs, but the cost of the detection system increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies universality by designing a detection system with a standardized framework that can serve multiple customer requirements across different divisions. The system uses a unified image capturing device, control circuit, and workflow execution mechanism that can be configured for various workflows (procurement, production, maintenance) without requiring separate customized systems for each division, thereby reducing overall system cost while maintaining adaptability.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent segments the detection system into modular components: an image capturing device for data collection, a control circuit for processing and decision-making, and executable workflows for specific tasks. This segmentation allows each module to be independently optimized and reused across different customer requirements, reducing the need for complete system customization and lowering costs.
2Adaptability or versatility
If a detection system is customized for each manufacturer's specific divisions, then the system can address unique workflow needs, but the cost cannot be reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements preliminary action by pre-defining a standardized framework and template for the detection system that can be quickly configured for different manufacturer requirements. The control circuit is pre-programmed with workflows that can be activated based on customer needs, eliminating the need for expensive custom development and reducing installation costs while maintaining customization capability.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent uses copying by creating a standardized system template that can be replicated and configured for different customer requirements. Instead of building custom systems from scratch for each manufacturer, the standardized framework serves as a copy that can be adapted through configuration, significantly reducing installation costs while preserving the ability to meet unique workflow needs.
3Ease of manufacture
If a detection system uses standardized components, then the installation cost decreases, but the ability to meet specific customer requirements may be limited
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies dynamics by designing a standardized system framework that remains flexible and adaptable through dynamic configuration. The control circuit can dynamically select and execute different workflows based on customer requirements, and the system can adapt its behavior through software configuration rather than hardware changes, maintaining both cost-effectiveness and customization capability.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent uses parameter changes by allowing the standardized system to be configured through parameter adjustments in the control circuit and workflow definitions. Instead of requiring different hardware systems for different customer needs, the system maintains a fixed standardized structure while adapting through parameter changes in workflow selection, execution parameters, and detection criteria, thereby preserving adaptability without increasing installation cost.
