Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Device complexity
If constant determination conditions are used for bad road detection, then the device complexity is reduced, but the measurement precision of road surface state deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies dynamics by making the determination threshold dynamic rather than constant. The threshold is adjusted in real-time based on the detected wheel slippage amount, allowing the system to adapt to varying braking conditions and road surfaces, thereby improving detection precision without requiring overly complex fixed thresholds for every possible condition
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the parameter of the determination threshold based on the slippage amount. By modifying the threshold value according to actual wheel behavior (slippage), the system achieves more accurate bad road detection across different braking scenarios without increasing overall device complexity
2Reliability
If the bad road determination threshold value is increased to reduce false positives, then the reliability of normal braking is improved, but the measurement precision of actual bad roads deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent dynamically adjusts the determination threshold parameter based on slippage amount. During normal braking with low slippage, a higher threshold prevents false positives. During actual bad road conditions with high slippage, the threshold automatically lowers to detect the true condition, thus resolving the contradiction between reliability and precision
3Measurement precision
If the bad road determination threshold value is decreased to improve detection sensitivity, then the measurement precision of bad roads is improved, but false positives increase reducing normal braking reliability
Solution Approach 1:
The patent uses slippage amount as a basis for dynamically changing the threshold parameter. This ensures that low thresholds (high sensitivity) are only applied when slippage indicates actual bad road conditions, while normal braking with low slippage maintains higher thresholds, preventing false positives
4Ease of operation
If constant determination conditions are used, then the ease of operation is improved, but the adaptability to different braking powers and road conditions deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements self-service by having the system automatically adjust its own determination threshold based on detected slippage. The system serves itself by using its own operational data (wheel speed, slippage) to adaptively change its determination conditions, eliminating the need for complex external configuration while improving adaptability
