Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If conventional measurement methods are used requiring multiple disassembly and re-attachment of polarizers, then measurement completeness can be achieved, but measurement time increases and work efficiency decreases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemeasurement completenessVSAvoidmeasurement time
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by pre-classifying display panels into different types (first type with normal polarizer arrangement, second type with inverted polarizer arrangement) before measurement. This classification is done in advance based on design specifications, so that during actual measurement, the appropriate formula can be directly selected without needing to disassemble and reattach polarizers multiple times to determine the panel type, thus reducing measurement time while maintaining measurement completeness.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements dynamics by providing different measurement formulas dynamically selected based on the display panel type. Instead of using a fixed measurement procedure that requires multiple disassembly steps, the system adapts the calculation method according to the pre-identified panel type, making the measurement process flexible and efficient while ensuring accurate measurement results for different panel configurations.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

2Measurement precision

If multiple disassembly and re-attachment operations are performed on polarizers, then comprehensive brightness data can be obtained, but work efficiency decreases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata accuracyVSAvoidwork efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by pre-determining the display panel type and selecting the appropriate measurement formula before actual measurement. This eliminates the need for multiple disassembly and re-attachment operations to gather comprehensive brightness data, as the single measurement can be processed using the pre-selected formula corresponding to the panel type, thereby maintaining data accuracy while significantly improving work efficiency.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent uses copying by establishing mathematical models (formulas) that replicate the effect of multiple physical measurements. Instead of actually disassembling and reattaching polarizers to obtain different brightness values, the system uses calculated models that copy the expected measurement outcomes based on panel type, thus obtaining comprehensive data without the time-consuming physical operations.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

3Measurement precision

If conventional measurement procedures are used, then all brightness parameters can be measured, but reliability of measurement process decreases

Engineering Contradiction:

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by pre-classifying display panels into types with different polarizer arrangements and pre-matching appropriate measurement formulas to each type. This eliminates the variability and potential errors associated with manual disassembly and re-attachment operations, making the measurement process more reliable. The pre-established correspondence between panel types and formulas ensures that the correct measurement approach is always applied, maintaining parameter completeness while improving process reliability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action
