Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If a fixed monitoring and early warning mechanism is used, then the system structure is simple, but the monitoring efficiency cannot be adjusted according to actual requirements

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemonitoring efficiencyVSAvoidsystem structure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies the dynamics principle by making the monitoring mechanism adjustable through telescopic cylinders that can change the height and position of the control box. This allows the system to adapt its monitoring coverage and efficiency based on actual landslide monitoring requirements, transforming a static fixed structure into a dynamic adjustable one.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The control box serves multiple functions: it houses the Beidou positioning module for location tracking, the camera for visual monitoring, the warning device for alerts, and the telescopic cylinder mechanism for positional adjustment. This multi-functionality allows a single integrated structure to perform diverse monitoring tasks while maintaining adjustability.

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

2Adaptability or versatility

If the control box position is fixed, then the installation is simple, but the monitoring coverage cannot be adjusted

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemonitoring coverage adjustmentVSAvoidinstallation complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The telescopic cylinder enables the control box to move vertically and adjust its position dynamically. This dynamic positioning capability allows the system to adapt to different monitoring coverage requirements without requiring complex reinstallation, as the adjustment can be made through the telescopic mechanism.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The mounting structure is segmented into multiple adjustable components: the telescopic cylinder for vertical adjustment, the rotating rod for angular positioning, and the sliding blocks with guide rods for lateral movement. This segmentation allows each component to be adjusted independently, providing flexible positioning while keeping individual adjustment mechanisms relatively simple.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

3Reliability

If the monitoring mechanism is fixed, then the device structure is stable, but the responsiveness to different landslide scenarios is reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesystem stabilityVSAvoidscenario adaptability
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The system maintains stability through its structured framework while incorporating dynamic adjustment capabilities via the telescopic cylinder and rotating mechanisms. This allows the system to remain stable during operation while being able to adapt to different landslide scenarios by adjusting the control box position and orientation as needed.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The system changes key parameters such as the height, position, and orientation of the control box to adapt to different landslide monitoring scenarios. The telescopic cylinder adjusts the vertical parameter, the rotating rod adjusts the angular parameter, and the sliding mechanism adjusts the horizontal position, allowing flexible adaptation while maintaining structural stability.

Inventive Principle:
