Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If a wearable device for male genitalia is designed to be portable and easy to carry, then ease of operation is improved, but device complexity may increase to achieve the required functionality
Solution Approach 1:
The wearable device is divided into a body portion and a light radiation device portion, allowing independent optimization of each component. The body is designed as a simple wearable structure while the light radiation device can be separately controlled and replaced, reducing overall system complexity while maintaining portability.
Solution Approach 2:
The body of the wearable device is designed to perform multiple functions: supporting the light radiation device, providing structural framework, and potentially serving as a mounting surface for additional components. This multi-functionality reduces the need for separate structural components, simplifying the overall device while maintaining ease of carrying.
2Reliability
If the light radiation device radiates light with a specific wavelength band to increase testosterone levels, then therapeutic effect is improved, but manufacturing precision requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent specifies a wavelength band (630 nm to 880 nm) rather than a single precise wavelength, allowing flexibility in manufacturing while maintaining therapeutic effectiveness. This parameter range approach enables the use of standard LED components that can be manufactured with常规 tolerances, reducing manufacturing precision requirements while ensuring reliable therapeutic effects within the effective wavelength range.
3Adaptability or versatility
If the device structure includes adjustable hinge for positioning, then adaptability is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The hinge mechanism allows the device to dynamically adjust its configuration to accommodate different user anatomies and positioning requirements. The movable joint enables angle adjustment between the body and light radiation device, providing adaptability without requiring multiple fixed-configuration devices, thus balancing complexity with versatility.
