VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of manufacture

If sugar, salt, or artificial flavors are added to enhance taste, then taste enhancement is achieved, but health issues arise

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvetaste enhancementVSAvoidhealth issues

Core Design Contradiction:

Ease of manufactureVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent replaces chemical addition methods with electromagnetic field treatment. A time-varying electromagnetic field system with conductor probes or coils is used to treat foods and beverages, substituting the mechanical/chemical approach of adding sugar, salt, or artificial flavors with a physical electromagnetic field approach that modifies taste without harmful additives

Inventive Principle:

Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent changes the physical parameters of the food or beverage through electromagnetic field treatment. By applying specific frequency ranges (low, medium, high) and varying the electromagnetic field strength, the taste properties are modified without changing the chemical composition through additive introduction

Inventive Principle:

Principle #35Parameter changes

2Reliability

If chemicals are added to convert oxidizing drinks to antioxidizing, then antioxidizing property is improved, but undesirable taste and health issues are introduced

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveantioxidizing propertyVSAvoidundesirable taste and health issues

Core Design Contradiction:

ReliabilityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent replaces chemical conversion methods with electromagnetic field treatment. Instead of adding chemicals like sodium bicarbonate or sodium hydroxide to convert oxidizing drinks, the system uses a time-varying electromagnetic field with specific frequency ranges to directly modify the oxidative properties of the beverage, avoiding chemical additives and their associated taste and health problems

Inventive Principle:

Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

Solution Approach 2:

The electromagnetic field acts as an intermediary between the energy source and the food/beverage. The field mediates the conversion of oxidizing properties to antioxidizing properties without requiring direct chemical intervention, using the electromagnetic energy to induce changes in the molecular structure and oxidation state of the beverage components

Inventive Principle:

Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)
