Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If additional fixing structures or casing deformation are used to secure the bottom enclosing structure, then the fixation reliability is improved, but the device complexity and manufacturing difficulty increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvefixation reliabilityVSAvoidstructure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The filling body automatically secures the bottom enclosing structure through its own material properties (viscosity and curing characteristics) without requiring external fixing structures. The filling body serves both its primary function of filling the accommodating space and the secondary function of fixing the bottom enclosing structure, eliminating the need for separate fixing mechanisms.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The filling body's physical parameters (viscosity and curing state) are utilized to achieve fixation. By controlling the filling body's material parameters, it can transition from a liquid state that flows to fill the space to a cured state that provides mechanical support and fixation, thereby securing the bottom enclosing structure without additional components.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Reliability

If additional fixing structures are added to secure the bottom enclosing structure, then the fixation reliability is improved, but the manufacturing time and productivity are reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvefixation reliabilityVSAvoidmanufacturing efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The fixing function is merged with the filling body's primary function. The same filling body that fills the accommodating space also provides the fixation mechanism for the bottom enclosing structure, combining two functions into one component and eliminating separate fixing operations in the manufacturing process.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The filling body performs the fixation function as part of its own operational sequence during manufacturing. As the filling body is placed and then cured, it automatically secures the bottom enclosing structure without requiring separate fixing steps, thereby streamlining the manufacturing process and improving productivity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

3Reliability

If the casing structure is deformed to fix the bottom enclosing structure, then the fixation reliability is improved, but the manufacturing precision and casing integrity are compromised

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvefixation reliabilityVSAvoidcasing shape precision
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSManufacturing precision

Solution Approach 1:

The filling body acts as an intermediary between the bottom enclosing structure and the casing structure. Instead of deforming the casing to achieve fixation, the filling body provides a compliant medium that adapts to the casing's original shape while securing the bottom enclosing structure, thereby preserving the casing's manufacturing precision and structural integrity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)
