Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Stability of the object's composition
If multiple existing suspension apparatuses are used to provide suspending forces in multiple directions, then the cryogenic apparatus can be suspended stably, but the assembly process becomes intricate and installation precision is affected
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple suspension assemblies into a single integrated apparatus. The support tray structure integrates multiple mounting positions and suspension assemblies that work together as one unit, eliminating the need to install multiple separate suspension apparatuses while maintaining stable suspension in multiple directions
Solution Approach 2:
The support tray serves multiple functions simultaneously: it provides structural support, integrates multiple mounting positions for suspension assemblies, and enables suspension in multiple directions. This multi-functional design reduces the number of separate components needed while achieving stable suspension
2Stability of the object's composition
If multiple existing suspension apparatuses are used to provide suspending forces in multiple directions, then the cryogenic apparatus can be suspended stably, but the installation process becomes more complex and time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
By merging multiple suspension assemblies into one integrated support tray apparatus, the installation process is streamlined from multiple separate installations to a single installation operation, significantly reducing the time required while maintaining stable suspension
3Device complexity
If a single suspension apparatus provides only one suspending force, then the structure is simple, but stable suspension in multiple directions cannot be achieved
Solution Approach 1:
The support tray is segmented into multiple annular parts with through-holes and mounting parts, allowing suspension assemblies to be positioned at different locations and orientations. This segmentation enables the single apparatus to provide suspending forces in multiple directions while maintaining overall structural simplicity
Solution Approach 2:
The support tray utilizes multi-dimensional arrangement of suspension assemblies through its annular structure with multiple mounting positions. By distributing suspension assemblies in different spatial dimensions and orientations, the apparatus achieves stable multi-directional suspension while keeping the overall structure simple and integrated
