Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If traditional inductive magnetic field sensors are used, then the sensor can measure magnetic field changes, but the working bandwidth is limited due to high-frequency and low-frequency band noise

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveworking bandwidthVSAvoidhigh-frequency and low-frequency band noise
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent divides the frequency spectrum into low-frequency and high-frequency bands and applies different noise suppression strategies to each segment. A dual-channel composite multi-stage modulation signal-noise separation circuit is constructed, with one channel for low-frequency signal processing and another for high-frequency signal processing, allowing independent optimization of noise suppression for each frequency band.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces a magnetic core as an intermediary component between the coil and the magnetic field signal. The magnetic core undergoes vacuum magnetic-field annealing treatment to reduce its temperature variation-induced permeability noise, which acts as a mediator to suppress noise while allowing the magnetic field signal to pass through.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Object-affected harmful factors

If the magnetic core is modified through vacuum magnetic-field annealing, then the temperature variation-induced permeability noise is reduced, but the manufacturing process complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetemperature variation-induced permeability noiseVSAvoidmanufacturing process
Core Design Contradiction:
Object-affected harmful factorsVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies vacuum magnetic-field annealing treatment to the magnetic core before the core is assembled into the final sensor. This preliminary treatment pre-reduces the temperature variation-induced permeability noise in the magnetic core material, so that when the sensor operates under varying temperature conditions, the noise is already suppressed. The annealing process is performed in advance during manufacturing, and the treated core is then used in the sensor assembly.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action
