Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing failure diagnosis systems for devices like gear motors lack convenience and flexibility in processing modes, limiting their ability to adapt to varying diagnosis requirements and accuracy needs.
Innovation Solution
A failure diagnosis system with sensors connected to a processing unit that can switch between a first processing mode for simplified diagnosis and a second processing mode for thorough diagnosis, allowing selection based on sensor type and user input, and automatically correcting input settings to ensure effective processing.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a failure diagnosis system uses a single processing mode, then the system structure is simple, but the system lacks flexibility and adaptability to varying diagnosis requirements
Solution Approach 1:
The system implements dynamic processing modes that can switch between different diagnosis approaches (simplified and thorough) based on user selection and sensor type. This allows the system to adapt its complexity and processing depth dynamically, resolving the contradiction between flexibility and structural simplicity.
Solution Approach 2:
The processing unit is designed to perform multiple functions through different processing modes, enabling it to handle both simplified diagnosis and thorough analysis tasks. This multi-functionality provides adaptability to varying requirements while maintaining a unified system structure.
2Adaptability or versatility
If the system provides multiple processing modes for different diagnosis needs, then the adaptability improves, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system uses dynamic mode switching where the processing unit can transition between simplified and thorough processing modes based on user input and sensor characteristics. This dynamic approach enables adaptability without requiring permanently complex structures for all modes simultaneously.
Solution Approach 2:
Different processing modes are applied locally based on specific requirements - simplified mode for routine checks and thorough mode for detailed analysis. This allows the system to exhibit appropriate complexity only where and when needed, rather than maintaining high complexity throughout.
3Ease of operation
If the system automatically corrects input settings, then the ease of operation improves, but the processing time may increase due to validation and correction operations
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary validation and automatic correction of user inputs before main diagnosis processing begins. This preliminary action prevents invalid settings from causing processing delays or errors during the actual diagnosis, ultimately saving time by ensuring inputs are ready for immediate processing.
Solution Approach 2:
The system provides feedback to users about input validation results and automatic corrections made. This feedback mechanism helps users understand what adjustments were made and why, improving ease of operation while maintaining efficient processing by resolving input issues quickly.

AI summary
A failure diagnosis system includes a sensor that is provided in each of a plurality of diagnosis target devices and detects diagnosis target information of a corresponding diagnosis target device and a processing unit that is provided with respect to one or the plurality of diagnosis target devices and processes the diagnosis target information detected by the sensor. The processing unit is capable of executing a first processing mode and a second processing mode in which processing different from the first processing mode is performed, and processes the diagnosis target information in a selected processing mode.
