Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If welding is used to connect cross beams and longitudinal beams, then assembly speed is improved and labor costs are reduced, but packaging size increases and production complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveassembly speedVSAvoidpackaging size
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSVolume of stationary object

Solution Approach 1:

The support structure is divided into separate cross beam and longitudinal beam components that can be packaged independently in a compact state, then quickly assembled through the rapid mounting structure during installation, resolving the conflict between compact packaging and fast assembly

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Productivity

If welding is used to connect cross beams and longitudinal beams, then assembly speed is improved, but thermal deformation and environmental pollution occur

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveassembly speedVSAvoidthermal deformation and pollution
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSObject-generated harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The welding process is replaced with a mechanical rapid mounting structure consisting of a boss with locking block and a notch with groove sections, eliminating thermal deformation and environmental pollution while maintaining fast assembly capability

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

3Object-generated harmful factors

If rivets are used to connect cross beams and longitudinal beams, then welding is replaced, but operation complexity increases and connection reliability decreases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvethermal deformation and pollutionVSAvoidoperation steps and positioning requirements
Core Design Contradiction:
Object-generated harmful factorsVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The rapid mounting structure is designed to be self-aligning and self-locking, where the locking block automatically engages with the notch groove sections without requiring precise manual positioning or complex operation steps, making assembly simpler than riveting

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

4Strength

If bolts are used to connect support and desk legs, then connection strength is achieved, but assembly complexity and time consumption increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveconnection strengthVSAvoidassembly process complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
StrengthVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The complex bolt tightening process is extracted and replaced with a simplified rapid mounting structure using a locking block and notch mechanism that achieves strong connections through simple insertion and locking actions, eliminating the need for tools and complex procedures

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

AI summary

A lifting desk support having rapid mounting structures and a lifting desk are provided. The lifting desk support includes a longitudinal beam and a cross beam assembly. The lifting desk support further includes a set of rapid mounting structures, which comprises a boss having a slope arranged on the longitudinal beam and a notch provided on the cross beam assembly. A locking block of the boss is embedded into the cross beam assembly through a first groove section of the notch, and a force along an axial direction of a cross beam of the cross beam assembly is applied to the longitudinal beam, such that the locking block enters a second groove section of the notch, and the locking and the assembly between the longitudinal beam and the cross beam assembly are achieved in a rapid and efficient manner with cost saved.
