Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If manual separation method is used, then flexibility is maintained, but separation efficiency is low and time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
The jig system is divided into multiple functional modules: upper cover portion with rotatable upper panel, plate elevation unit with support members, and coupling members. Each module performs a specific function in the separation process, allowing complex separation tasks to be broken down into manageable steps that improve efficiency without requiring an overly complex monolithic device.
Solution Approach 2:
The main frame serves multiple functions: supporting the board installation stand, mounting the coolant jacket separation unit, and providing structural stability. The upper panel既能cover the board during assembly又能facilitate separation when rotated, demonstrating multi-functionality that improves productivity without proportionally increasing device complexity.
2Productivity
If dedicated separation apparatus is introduced, then separation efficiency improves, but operation complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The upper panel is designed to be rotatable rather than fixed, allowing it to move between a closed position during assembly and an open position during separation. The plate elevation unit dynamically adjusts the position of support members to facilitate coolant jacket removal. These dynamic elements automate complex separation actions while maintaining operational simplicity through intuitive motion.
Solution Approach 2:
The coupling members automatically engage with the coolant jacket and board structure, using the mechanical motion of panel rotation and plate elevation to drive the separation process. The system performs much of the separation work automatically through its mechanical design, reducing the manual effort and complexity required to operate the device.
3Ease of operation
If rotatable upper panel is used, then access to coolant jacket is improved, but structural complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The upper panel rotates only partially through a limited arc to achieve the necessary access position for coolant jacket separation. This partial rotation is sufficient to expose the coolant jacket while avoiding the need for complex 360-degree rotation mechanisms, thereby improving accessibility without proportionally increasing structural complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The panel link acts as an intermediary mechanical element that translates the rotation of the upper panel into coordinated movement of other separation components. This intermediary mechanism simplifies the overall coupling system by using a single rotational input to drive multiple separation actions simultaneously, reducing the complexity that would arise from directly coupling multiple independent mechanisms.
