Solution Overview

Problem

Emergency power supplies face high standby power consumption and short standby duration, which limits their long-term storage capability and increases energy wastage and environmental impact in modern, high-rise buildings.

Innovation Solution

An emergency power supply control system comprising a main control module, power storage module, charge module, and discharge module, with a self-locking power supply circuit and power storage management unit to reduce standby power consumption and extend standby time by optimizing power storage and discharge processes.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If the emergency power supply operates continuously to maintain readiness, then the reliability of power supply is improved, but the standby power consumption increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepower supply readinessVSAvoidstandby power consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

The system dynamically switches between different operational states (standby mode with reduced power consumption and full operation mode) based on whether emergency power is needed. The control unit adjusts the power supply state in real-time, allowing the emergency power supply to maintain readiness while minimizing energy consumption during non-critical periods.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

2Duration of action of moving object

If the emergency power supply maintains full power readiness, then the duration of action during emergency is improved, but the standby duration decreases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveemergency power durationVSAvoidstandby duration
Core Design Contradiction:
Duration of action of moving objectVSDuration of action of stationary object

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary charging of the battery during normal operation and standby periods, accumulating energy in advance so that when an emergency occurs, the full power duration can be maximized. The control unit monitors battery charge levels and adjusts charging rates to ensure sufficient energy储备 before emergency situations arise.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action
