Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Object-affected harmful factors
If heat dissipation member or shield member is added to protect users from thermal injury, then user safety is improved, but manufacturing process complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent integrates the heat dissipation function directly into the case structure by forming a second case that surrounds the first case, eliminating the need for separate heat dissipation members or shield members. The case itself becomes the heat dissipation structure, merging the protective function with the structural component.
Solution Approach 2:
The case structure serves multiple functions simultaneously: it provides structural support, acts as a heat dissipation pathway, and protects users from thermal injury. The second case both houses the power supply device and functions as a thermal shield, making the structure multi-functional.
2Object-affected harmful factors
If heat dissipation member or shield member is added to protect users from thermal injury, then user safety is improved, but device structure becomes more complicated
Solution Approach 1:
The heat dissipation function is merged into the case structure itself. The second case is formed to surround the first case, creating an integrated heat dissipation structure that eliminates the need for separate shield members or heat dissipation components.
Solution Approach 2:
The case structure performs multiple functions: it provides mechanical support, serves as a heat dissipation pathway, and acts as a thermal shield protecting users from burns. This multi-functionality reduces the need for additional protective components.
3Object-affected harmful factors
If separate heat dissipation components are used, then thermal protection is achieved, but manufacturing cost and process time increase
Solution Approach 1:
The heat dissipation function is combined with the case structure, eliminating separate manufacturing steps for heat dissipation components. The case is formed as an integrated structure with the heat dissipation function built-in, reducing assembly steps and manufacturing complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The case structure serves as both the housing and the heat dissipation system, allowing a single component to fulfill multiple roles. This reduces the number of parts that need to be manufactured and assembled, improving production efficiency.
