Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If a traditional medical image system with complex structure is used, then the imaging functionality is complete, but the operational state feedback is delayed and difficult to obtain

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveaccuracy of operational state informationVSAvoidstructure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent creates a virtual copy (simulation model) of the imaging device that replicates its operational states and parameters. This virtual model provides real-time feedback on device status without adding physical complexity to the actual device structure, thereby improving reliability of operational state information while maintaining structural simplicity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

Solution Approach 2:

The simulation model acts as an intermediary between the imaging device and the operator. It receives device state parameters, processes them into comprehensible simulation images, and presents them to users, thereby improving the clarity and accuracy of operational state feedback without complicating the direct device structure.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Ease of operation

If the imaging device structure is simplified, then the operation becomes easier, but the ability to provide comprehensive operational state feedback is reduced

Engineering Contradiction:

Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

By creating a comprehensive virtual model that captures all operational parameters and states, the system preserves complete operational information in a simplified digital format. This allows operators to access full device state feedback through easy-to-interpret simulation images without needing to navigate complex physical device interfaces.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements real-time feedback loops where device state parameters are continuously monitored, processed by the simulation model, and displayed as updated simulation images. This ensures operators receive timely and complete operational state information while maintaining simple interaction through the viewing device.

Inventive Principle:

Solution Approach 1:

The virtual simulation model handles all parameter adjustment calculations and simulations, allowing real-time operational optimizations without adding physical components or complexity to the imaging device. Operators can efficiently adjust parameters by interacting with the simulation interface, which processes changes and generates updated simulation images instantly.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

Solution Approach 2:

The simulation model autonomously processes device state parameters, performs necessary calculations, and generates updated simulation images without requiring complex manual interventions. This self-processing capability enables real-time operational efficiency improvements while keeping the system architecture relatively simple.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service
