Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Stability of the object's composition

If the magnetic circuit structure is directly connected to the shell, then the structural stability is improved, but the shell vibration and sound quality deteriorate due to reverse acting force transmission

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvestructural stabilityVSAvoidshell vibration
Core Design Contradiction:
Stability of the object's compositionVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

A bridging structure is introduced as an intermediary component between the magnetic circuit structure and the shell. This bridging structure includes elastic supporting elements that provide mechanical connection while isolating vibration transmission, thus resolving the contradiction between structural stability and shell vibration reduction

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The connection between the magnetic circuit structure and the shell is segmented through the bridging structure, which divides the rigid direct connection into multiple flexible connection points. This segmentation allows the system to maintain structural integrity while reducing vibration transmission to the shell

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Object-affected harmful factors

If the magnetic circuit structure is separated from the shell using a bridging structure, then the shell vibration is reduced, but the structural stability may deteriorate

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveshell vibrationVSAvoidstructural stability
Core Design Contradiction:
Object-affected harmful factorsVSStability of the object's composition

Solution Approach 1:

The bridging structure utilizes elastic supporting elements with specific elasticity parameters that allow it to provide adequate mechanical support while filtering out vibration frequencies that cause shell resonance. By carefully selecting the elasticity parameters, both vibration reduction and structural stability are achieved

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Device complexity

If only a main voice coil is used, then the device complexity is reduced, but the ability to counteract magnetic circuit structure vibration is insufficient

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedevice complexityVSAvoidmagnetic circuit structure vibration
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSObject-generated harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

An auxiliary voice coil is added to generate a counteracting electromagnetic force that opposes the vibration of the magnetic circuit structure. This auxiliary coil acts as a counterweight in the electromagnetic domain, actively canceling out the harmful vibrations while the main voice coil handles the primary sound generation

Inventive Principle:
Principle #8Anti-weight (Counterweight)
