Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Device complexity

If charging stands only have charging lines for mainstream mobile phone models, then the device complexity is reduced, but the adaptability to different device models deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecharging stand structureVSAvoidcharging compatibility
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The charging stand integrates multiple charging functions into a single device: USB port charging for wired connections, wireless charging base for contactless charging, and modular light box with clamping grooves that can accommodate various device sizes and types. This multi-functional design allows the same charging stand to serve different device models without requiring multiple specialized stands.

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

2Device complexity

If charging stands lack illumination, then the device complexity is reduced, but the ease of operation at night deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecharging stand structureVSAvoidnighttime usability
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent combines the advertising light box function with the charging stand structure. The light box, originally intended for advertising purposes, serves a dual function by providing illumination during nighttime charging. The modular design with clamping grooves allows the light box to be integrated seamlessly into the charging stand, creating a unified structure that performs both advertising and illumination functions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

3Ease of manufacture

If charging stands use fixed non-modular structures, then the ease of manufacture is improved, but the ease of repair and recycling deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveproduction simplicityVSAvoidmaintenance difficulty
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSEase of repair

Solution Approach 1:

The charging stand is divided into distinct modular components: the light box with horizontal and vertical bars, the support panel, the wireless charging base, and the USB charging components. Each module can be independently manufactured, assembled, and replaced. The clamping grooves and inserting grooves enable easy connection and disconnection of these modules, facilitating repair, maintenance, and recycling without requiring complete disassembly of the entire structure.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation
