Solution Overview

Problem

The assembly of fracturing apparatus components, such as diffusion pipes, silencers, and turbines, is challenging due to their large volume and weight, leading to difficulties in alignment and fixation, which requires significant manpower and time.

Innovation Solution

The exhaust device comprises a body, a fixation plate, a pressure plate, and a diffusion pipe, where the fixation plate and pressure plate have pre-installation parts that allow for pre-fixation of the diffusion pipe, simplifying the assembly process by enabling initial alignment and accurate connection without manual support.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If traditional manual alignment and fixation methods are used for large-volume components, then assembly flexibility is maintained, but assembly time and manpower requirements increase significantly

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveassembly efficiencyVSAvoidassembly time
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by providing pre-installation parts (pre-drilled holes, pre-formed connection structures) on the fixation plate and pressure plate before assembly. This allows the diffusion pipe to be quickly aligned and fixed without requiring manual measurement and hole drilling during assembly, significantly reducing assembly time while maintaining flexibility.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Ease of operation

If manual alignment and support are used during assembly, then assembly adaptability is maintained, but the complexity of the assembly process increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveassembly easeVSAvoidassembly process complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the assembly process into distinct functional components: the fixation plate with pre-installation parts for alignment, the pressure plate for securing, and the diffusion pipe. This segmentation allows each component to be prepared independently with specific features (pre-drilled holes, connection structures), simplifying the overall assembly process by eliminating the need for complex manual alignment procedures.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

3Productivity

If pre-installation parts are added to enable automated fixation, then assembly speed increases, but manufacturing complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveassembly speedVSAvoidmanufacturing ease
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSEase of manufacture

Solution Approach 1:

The pre-installation parts (pre-drilled holes, pre-formed connection structures) are manufactured in advance as integral features of the fixation plate and pressure plate. This preliminary action during manufacturing allows for rapid assembly later, as the alignment and connection features are already prepared. The manufacturing complexity is managed by incorporating these features into standard plate fabrication processes.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action
