Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a complex Internet of Things system is used for data interaction across multiple workshops and equipment, then data transfer capability is improved, but system complexity and data interaction errors increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the complex IoT system into multiple independent platform layers (user platform, service platform, management platform, sensor network platform, object platform). Each layer handles specific functions independently, reducing overall system complexity while maintaining comprehensive data transfer capability across multiple workshops and equipment.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces intermediate management platforms and service platforms that mediate between user platforms and sensor network platforms. These intermediary layers standardize data interactions, reduce errors, and simplify the complex communication paths between diverse workshops and equipment.
2Productivity
If data interaction is expanded to cover all related workshops and equipment simultaneously, then production task plan implementation is improved, but data processing pressure and transmission burden increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent divides the data processing workload across multiple independent platforms (user platform, service platform, management platform, sensor network platform, object platform). Each platform processes only the data relevant to its function, distributing the processing pressure and avoiding the burden of handling all data centrally.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent transforms the data processing architecture from a flat, centralized structure to a multi-layered vertical structure. This dimensional change allows data to flow through specialized channels at different levels, reducing the processing burden at any single point while maintaining comprehensive production task plan implementation.
3Ease of operation
If the Internet of Things system is simplified to reduce complexity, then system ease of operation is improved, but data interaction accuracy and production task plan coordination deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the system into standardized, modular platforms with clearly defined interfaces. This segmentation makes the system easier to operate while maintaining accuracy, as each module can be independently configured and validated without affecting the entire system.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent creates universal platform layers that can handle multiple functions and data types through standardized interfaces. This universality simplifies operation by providing consistent interaction methods across diverse workshops and equipment while maintaining data interaction accuracy through proven, reusable components.
