Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If human observation is used to judge alignment accuracy, then the alignment process can be performed, but the accuracy is poor and labor intensity is high

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvealignment accuracyVSAvoidlabor intensity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent replaces the human visual observation system with an automated image processing system. A camera captures images of the display panel, and image processing algorithms automatically detect and measure alignment parameters, eliminating the need for manual visual judgment and significantly improving both accuracy and reducing labor intensity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces an intermediary image processing system between the display panel and the alignment judgment. This intermediary captures optical images and performs automated measurement, serving as a mediator that translates physical alignment states into measurable digital data, thereby improving precision and reducing direct human involvement.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Productivity

If human observation is used for alignment, then alignment can be judged, but efficiency is low and only specially-trained personnel can operate it

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvealignment efficiencyVSAvoidoperation complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements self-service alignment judgment where the system automatically captures, processes, and evaluates alignment status without requiring specially-trained personnel. The automated image processing system performs alignment judgment independently, significantly improving efficiency and eliminating the need for specialized training while maintaining high accuracy.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The patent replaces the complex manual operation requiring specialized training with an automated electronic system. The image processing algorithm automatically performs alignment judgment that would otherwise require expert human judgment, thereby improving productivity and reducing operational complexity barriers.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

3Manufacturing precision

If the double-vision device is gradually moved for alignment, then alignment can be achieved, but time consumption increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvealignment precisionVSAvoidalignment time
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements continuous automated image capture and processing during the alignment process. Instead of discrete manual checks, the system continuously monitors alignment status through ongoing image acquisition and automated analysis, enabling faster determination of alignment accuracy while maintaining high precision.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #20Continuity of useful action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent replaces time-consuming manual visual inspection with automated image processing. The electronic system rapidly analyzes alignment parameters from captured images, significantly reducing the time required to achieve and verify alignment precision compared to gradual manual movement and observation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)
