Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If multiple power supplies are used to connect to multiple high-voltage boxes, then each high-voltage box can be independently powered, but the number of connection cables and wiring complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges multiple power supply functions into a single power supply unit that can serve multiple high-voltage boxes through a daisy-chain connection architecture. The first power supply is electrically connected to the first high-voltage box, and subsequent high-voltage boxes are connected in sequence, consolidating what would otherwise require multiple separate power supply units and their associated wiring harnesses.
Solution Approach 2:
The single power supply is designed with multi-functionality to serve multiple high-voltage boxes through standardized power supply interfaces. Each high-voltage box contains a power supply interface that can accept power from the same power supply unit, allowing one power supply to perform the function of multiple power supplies while reducing overall system complexity.
2Adaptability or versatility
If multiple power supply interfaces are provided in the power distribution cabinet, then each high-voltage box can be independently connected, but the volume of the power distribution cabinet increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent reduces the number of power supply interfaces in the power distribution cabinet from multiple separate interfaces to a single interface that connects to the first power supply. This consolidation merges what would otherwise require multiple discrete connection points, thereby reducing the overall volume required for the power distribution cabinet while maintaining the ability to serve multiple high-voltage boxes through the daisy-chain architecture.
3Reliability
If a traditional one-to-one power supply connection is used, then each high-voltage box has dedicated power supply, but the number of connection cables increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges multiple separate power supply connections into a single power supply unit that distributes power to multiple high-voltage boxes through a shared electrical connection. Instead of having one cable per power supply-box pair, the system uses one power supply with multiple output interfaces, significantly reducing the total number of connection cables required in the system.
Solution Approach 2:
The single power supply is designed with multi-functionality to provide dedicated power connections to multiple high-voltage boxes through its multiple power supply interfaces. Each interface can independently connect to a high-voltage box, allowing the single power supply to perform the function of multiple dedicated power supplies while using fewer cables overall.
