Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Object-affected harmful factors

If traditional connection wires are used without interference prevention materials, then the device complexity and cost are low, but electromagnetic radiation interference is strong and EMC standards are not met

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveelectromagnetic radiation interferenceVSAvoiddevice complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Object-affected harmful factorsVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The connection wire is divided into multiple segments by inserting interference prevention materials at specific positions. This segmentation breaks the continuous current path, forcing return currents to flow through designated ground paths rather than through the signal wire, thereby reducing electromagnetic radiation interference while maintaining manageable device complexity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

Interference prevention materials are introduced as intermediary elements between the signal transmission path and the ground. These materials act as mediators that redirect return currents through controlled impedance paths, reducing electromagnetic coupling and radiation without significantly increasing overall device complexity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Object-affected harmful factors

If interference prevention materials are added to connection wires, then electromagnetic radiation interference is reduced, but the cost and device complexity increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveelectromagnetic radiation interferenceVSAvoidease of manufacture
Core Design Contradiction:
Object-affected harmful factorsVSEase of manufacture

Solution Approach 1:

Instead of applying interference prevention measures to the entire connection wire, the patent applies interference prevention materials only at specific critical positions where electromagnetic radiation is most problematic. This localized approach reduces the amount of material needed and simplifies the manufacturing process while still achieving effective interference prevention

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

Solution Approach 2:

The patent employs simple, inexpensive interference prevention materials such as metal clips, conductive tapes, or ferrite beads that can be easily added during assembly. These are straightforward components that do not require complex manufacturing processes, maintaining ease of manufacture while effectively reducing electromagnetic radiation interference

Inventive Principle:
Principle #27Cheap short-living objects (Disposable)

3Object-generated harmful factors

If the loop area of return current signals is reduced, then electromagnetic radiation interference is minimized, but the connection structure becomes more complex

Engineering Contradiction:

Core Design Contradiction:
Object-generated harmful factorsVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The connection structure is segmented into distinct functional zones: signal transmission sections and ground return sections. By inserting interference prevention materials at transition points, the patent creates separate current paths that minimize loop area formation while keeping the overall connection structure relatively simple and modular

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation
