Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If wireless charging is used for dual battery smartphones, then charging convenience is improved, but temperature control and charging safety deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamic charging control by switching between different charging modes (first charging mode for single battery, second charging mode for dual battery) based on temperature detection. The control unit dynamically adjusts which battery receives power and at what rate, ensuring safety while maintaining convenience. Temperature sensors continuously monitor the device, and the system adapts its charging behavior in real-time to prevent overheating.
2Duration of action of moving object
If dual battery charging is implemented, then battery life is extended, but charging control complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the charging control into distinct modules: a first charging control unit for the first battery, a second charging control unit for the second battery, and a master control unit that coordinates them. This segmentation allows independent control of each battery while maintaining overall system management, reducing the complexity burden compared to a fully integrated control system.
Solution Approach 2:
The system dynamically switches between different charging configurations: charging only the first battery, charging only the second battery, or charging both batteries simultaneously in coordinated fashion. This dynamic adaptability allows the system to optimize battery life based on usage patterns while keeping the control logic manageable through clear state transitions.
3Productivity
If simultaneous dual battery charging is enabled, then charging efficiency is improved, but temperature management becomes difficult
Solution Approach 1:
The patent employs dynamic temperature monitoring and adaptive charging mode switching. When temperature thresholds are exceeded during simultaneous charging, the control unit automatically transitions to a safer charging mode (charging only one battery or reducing power). This dynamic response maintains charging efficiency when conditions permit while ensuring temperature management safety when needed.
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements feedback control through temperature sensors that continuously monitor thermal conditions during charging. The control unit receives temperature feedback and adjusts charging parameters accordingly, reducing or stopping simultaneous charging when temperature limits are approached. This closed-loop feedback mechanism balances charging efficiency with temperature management.

AI summary
A dual battery mobile terminal and a wireless charging system are provided. The wireless charging system includes a main battery, a secondary battery, a wireless receive module and a charging control module. The wireless receive module senses a wireless charging signal, and converts the sensed wireless charging signal into a voltage and current signal. The charging control module in turn outputs the voltage and current signal outputted from the wireless receive module to charge the main battery or the secondary battery individually, or output the voltage and current signal to charge the main battery and the secondary battery simultaneously. Thereby, the control of the dual battery charging may be achieved.
