Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Object-affected harmful factors

If a line filter is added to reduce current noise, then electromagnetic interference is reduced, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveelectromagnetic interferenceVSAvoiddevice complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Object-affected harmful factorsVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent combines the line filter structure with the existing housing or mounting bracket of the display device, integrating noise reduction functionality into an existing structural component rather than adding a separate discrete filter assembly

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The housing or mounting structure serves dual purposes: providing mechanical support and housing for the display device while simultaneously functioning as the line filter structure that reduces electromagnetic interference, making one component perform multiple functions

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

2Object-affected harmful factors

If shielding members are added to shield electric and magnetic fields, then vibration is reduced, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
ImprovevibrationVSAvoiddevice complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Object-affected harmful factorsVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The shielding members are integrated into the line filter structure itself, combining electromagnetic shielding functionality with the existing filter components rather than adding separate shielding assemblies

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The line filter structure serves multiple functions: filtering current noise, shielding electric and magnetic fields, and reducing vibration, allowing one structural component to perform multiple protective functions

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

3Volume of moving object

If component distance is reduced for miniaturization, then device size is reduced, but manufacturing precision requirements increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedevice sizeVSAvoidmanufacturing precision
Core Design Contradiction:
