Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If traditional main controller and sub-control port system is used, then control function is achieved, but installation complexity increases and requires professional knowledge
Solution Approach 1:
The system divides the control function into multiple independent control modules, each capable of independently controlling LED lamps. This segmentation eliminates the need for a central main controller and reduces installation complexity, as each module can be independently installed and configured.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent extracts the control functionality from a centralized main controller and distributes it across multiple independent control modules. This extraction eliminates the complex main controller-sub-controller port architecture and simplifies installation to basic wiring connections.
2Ease of operation
If traditional signal encoding method is used, then control operation is achieved, but operation complexity increases and becomes cumbersome
Solution Approach 1:
Each control module independently controls its connected LED lamps without requiring complex signal encoding or coordination with other modules. The modules operate autonomously, simplifying control operations to basic on/off switching without cumbersome encoding procedures.
3Adaptability or versatility
If main controller with sub-control ports is used, then system control is achieved, but dependency on controller ports increases and reduces flexibility
Solution Approach 1:
The patent removes the dependency on main controller ports by extracting control functionality into standalone control modules. Each module operates independently without requiring connection to a central controller, greatly enhancing installation flexibility and system adaptability.
Solution Approach 2:
Each control module is designed as a universal, self-contained unit that can control LED lamps independently. This multi-functionality allows the system to be configured in various ways without depending on specific controller port arrangements, increasing overall system versatility.
