Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Stability of the object's composition
If traditional fastening members (screws, clips) are used to connect the back cover and display module, then structural stability is improved, but device complexity and manufacturing cost increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces traditional mechanical fastening members (screws, clips) with an adhesive layer to connect the back cover and display module. This substitution eliminates the need for multiple fastening components while maintaining structural stability, thereby reducing device complexity and manufacturing cost.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent merges the connection function previously performed by separate fastening members into a single adhesive layer. This consolidation integrates the bonding function directly into the assembly process, eliminating the need for additional fastening components and simplifying the overall structure.
2Reliability
If multiple fastening members are used to secure components, then connection reliability is improved, but the device thickness increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces mechanical fastening members that would add significant thickness with a thin adhesive layer. The adhesive provides sufficient bonding strength to ensure connection reliability while maintaining a compact, thin device profile.
3Strength
If traditional connection methods with multiple components are used, then structural integrity is maintained, but manufacturing cost increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges multiple fastening components into a single adhesive layer, reducing the number of parts that need to be manufactured, inventoried, and assembled. This consolidation simplifies the supply chain and manufacturing process, thereby reducing overall manufacturing cost while maintaining structural integrity.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces complex mechanical fastening systems with a simpler adhesive bonding system, which requires fewer manufacturing steps, less precise assembly, and fewer specialized components, all of which contribute to reduced manufacturing cost.
