Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If threaded holes are opened on each lamp and screws are used for fixation, then the lamps can be securely connected, but the splicing operation becomes very cumbersome and time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
The connecting plate is divided into multiple clamp structures, each independently engaging with grooves on different lamps. This segmentation allows each lamp to be clamped separately without requiring precise alignment of threaded holes, simplifying the splicing operation while maintaining secure connections.
Solution Approach 2:
Instead of using screws that require threaded holes to be opened in each lamp, the invention inverts the approach by having the connecting plate with clamps that engage with pre-formed grooves on the lamps. This reversal eliminates the need for drilling and threading operations, making the splicing process much easier while maintaining connection reliability.
2Adaptability or versatility
If threaded holes are opened on each lamp for splicing, then multiple lamps can be connected, but the operation during splicing becomes very cumbersome due to alignment requirements
Solution Approach 1:
The grooves are pre-formed on the lamps during manufacturing, eliminating the need for field drilling and threading operations. The connecting plate is also pre-configured with multiple clamps positioned to engage these grooves, allowing lamps to be connected simply by aligning the grooves with the clamps, significantly reducing splicing process complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The invention extracts the threading operation entirely from the splicing process. Instead of requiring threaded holes in each lamp, the connecting plate is equipped with clamps that engage with simple grooves, removing the complex threading step and reducing overall device complexity while maintaining the ability to connect multiple lamps.
3Area of stationary object
If multiple lamps are spliced using traditional methods with threaded holes and connecting plates, then the lighting range can be expanded, but the splicing process requires precise alignment and screwing one by one
Solution Approach 1:
Multiple clamp structures are combined into a single connecting plate, allowing simultaneous engagement with multiple lamps. This merging enables workers to connect several lamps in one operation rather than screwing them one by one, significantly improving splicing efficiency while expanding the lighting coverage area through modular assembly.
Solution Approach 2:
The grooves are pre-formed on lamps and the connecting plate is pre-configured with clamps in appropriate positions. This preliminary preparation allows rapid assembly of multiple lamps without requiring precise alignment during the splicing operation itself, dramatically improving productivity while enabling expansion of lighting coverage through easy modular connection.
