Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If multiple manometric interfaces with different structures and positions are produced to meet different load requirements, then the output value of the manometric interface can be qualified, but the production cost increases and quality monitoring becomes more difficult

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveadaptation to different load requirementsVSAvoidproduction cost and quality monitoring complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The manometric interface is designed to be movable along the axial direction of the first through hole, allowing dynamic adjustment of its position. This enables a single interface structure to adapt to different load requirements by changing its location, eliminating the need for multiple fixed structures and reducing production complexity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The single manometric interface structure with adjustable position serves multiple functions for different load conditions. By moving the interface to different positions along the axial direction, it can qualify output values for various loads, making one component universal rather than requiring multiple specialized components

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

2Manufacturing precision

If the position or shape of the manometric interface is changed to achieve qualified output values, then different load requirements are met, but multiple manometric interfaces with different structures must be produced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveoutput value qualificationVSAvoidnumber of different interface structures
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

Instead of producing multiple static interfaces with different shapes, the invention uses a single interface that can dynamically change its effective position along the axial direction. This maintains manufacturing precision for each position while reducing the number of different structures to one standardized design

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The invention changes the position parameter of the manometric interface along the axial direction to achieve different output values for various loads. This parameter adjustment approach allows one interface structure to replace multiple structures with different parameters

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes
