Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If assembly in bulk at high altitude is adopted to overcome horizontal barriers, then the barrier can be crossed, but safety hazards increase and construction quality becomes difficult to guarantee
Solution Approach 1:
The construction process is segmented into ground-based assembly and lifting operations. The apparatus divides the heavy assembly task from the lifting task, allowing assembly to occur safely at ground level while lifting is performed by mechanical equipment rather than manual high-altitude work.
Solution Approach 2:
A lifting apparatus acts as an intermediary between the assembled structure and the high-altitude installation point. This intermediary equipment handles the dangerous high-altitude lifting operation, eliminating the need for workers to perform assembly operations at height.
2Adaptability or versatility
If assembly in bulk at high altitude is adopted, then the barrier can be crossed, but construction period is extended
Solution Approach 1:
Assembly operations are performed in advance at ground level before lifting. This preliminary assembly eliminates the need for time-consuming high-altitude assembly operations, significantly reducing the overall construction period while maintaining the ability to cross horizontal barriers.
3Reliability
If ground operation is used to transform high-altitude work, then safety is improved, but the ability to handle horizontal barriers is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The lifting apparatus utilizes hydraulic systems to provide controlled lifting force. The hydraulic push instrument kit and hydraulic lifter enable the apparatus to overcome horizontal barriers by providing sufficient lifting capacity while maintaining ground-based operation for safety.

AI summary
The present invention disclosed an apparatus and for lifting and sliding object over barrier in horizontal direction, comprising two lifting beams that placed on supporting structures and located above object to be lifted and a barrier, and a lifter installed on the lifting beam. A hydraulic push instrument kit is installed on a lifting beam to move the shoulder beam and the lifter. The lifter connects with the object through the steel strand and a triangle transfer connector having three fixed-holds. When the steel strand encounters a barrier in horizontal direction, setting another lifting apparatus on the part of lifting beams located on the other side of the barrier, connecting another lifting apparatus with the third fixed-hold of transfer connectors 4 by steel strands, and lifting the object until whole load of the object has been transferred onto the second lifter and the object can move to the desired position.
