Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional data processing systems are inefficient and inflexible due to integration of data sensing, calculation, and user interface components within a single container, limiting flexibility, requiring continuous user equipment connection, and restricting the number of connected devices through limited data transmission ports.

Innovation Solution

A central device-based system that acts as a data server and Web-based UI server, receiving data from external sensing components and providing it to user devices via a web interface, allowing for flexible configuration and operation without a display or control panel, and supporting multiple user devices through web service protocols.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Device complexity

If data sensing component, data calculation part, and user interface part are integrated within one container, then device structure is simplified, but flexibility and adaptability are reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedevice structureVSAvoidflexibility
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent divides the conventional integrated instrument into separate functional modules: data sensing components (e.g., spectrometer), data calculation parts (processing unit), and user interface parts (display device). These modules communicate via data transmission ports and networks, allowing independent configuration and deployment of each component while maintaining functional integration.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The user interface part is extracted from the main instrument container and implemented as a separate display device that can be remotely connected via network. This allows the core data acquisition and processing functions to operate independently while providing flexible user access through web-based interfaces on various devices.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

2Device complexity

If conventional hardware with integrated components is used, then device structure is straightforward, but continuous user equipment connection is required and number of connected devices is limited

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedevice structureVSAvoidnumber of connected devices
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements a web-based user interface that can be accessed through multiple types of user devices (smartphones, tablets, computers, laptops) via network connections. This universal access approach allows any device with web browsing capability to interact with the instrument, eliminating the limitation of dedicated control panels and enabling simultaneous access by multiple users.

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

Solution Approach 2:

A network communication system acts as an intermediary between the data acquisition device and various user devices. The processing unit communicates measurement data and receives control commands through network protocols, enabling flexible connectivity without requiring direct physical connections or limited dedicated interfaces.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Device complexity

If data transmission ports are limited in conventional instruments, then device structure is simple, but bandwidth requirements are not optimized and data management is less efficient

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedevice structureVSAvoiddata management efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent replaces limited physical data transmission ports with network-based communication protocols for data exchange. The processing unit transmits measurement data and receives control commands through network connections, utilizing digital communication infrastructure to overcome the bandwidth and connectivity limitations of traditional physical interfaces.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)
