Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Device complexity
If the same current or voltage is supplied to resistors with different resistance values, then the equipment structure remains simple, but the power produced fluctuates causing under-vaporization or over-vaporization
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamic power control by switching between multiple resistors with different resistance values based on real-time power detection. The controller adjusts the circuit configuration to maintain constant power output, transforming the static resistor selection into a dynamic adaptation process that resolves the contradiction between simple structure and reliable vaporization quality.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the resistance parameter by selecting different resistors from a set of resistors with different resistance values. The controller detects the actual power and adjusts the resistance parameter dynamically to maintain constant power output, thereby ensuring consistent vaporization quality without requiring complex equipment structure.
2Reliability
If multiple resistors with different resistance values are used, then the power can be maintained constant, but the device complexity increases due to resistor replacement and matching
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements self-service through automatic resistor selection and power detection. The controller automatically detects the power output and selects the appropriate resistor configuration without requiring manual intervention or complex matching procedures. This self-adjusting mechanism maintains constant power while simplifying the overall device operation.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent employs feedback control by detecting the actual power output and using this information to adjust the resistor selection. The controller continuously monitors power levels and adjusts the circuit configuration accordingly, creating a closed-loop system that maintains constant power while managing the complexity of multiple resistors through intelligent control.
3Duration of action of stationary object
If the resistor is replaced frequently, then the drug vaporization can continue, but the resistance value changes cause power fluctuation
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by pre-configuring multiple resistors with different resistance values before operation begins. The controller is pre-programmed with the resistance values and can immediately select the appropriate resistor when power fluctuation is detected, eliminating the need for manual resistor replacement and maintaining continuous, consistent vaporization.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent manages parameter changes by systematically varying the resistance parameter across multiple pre-selected resistors. When one resistor reaches the end of its service life or its resistance drifts, the controller switches to another resistor with a known resistance value, ensuring continuous operation with consistent power output without requiring frequent manual interventions.

AI summary
A constant power control device of an active vaporization suction apparatus includes a power unit, a first load matching unit, a matching control unit, a second load matching unit, and a constant current generation unit. To replace a medication box along with a liquefied medication within, a new medication box is mounted on the constant power control device, and the first load matching unit is electrically connected to a load unit of the replaced medication box. The first load matching unit determines a load value of the load unit. The second load matching unit and the constant current generation unit generate a constant current signal according to the load value, and transmit the constant current signal to the load unit, thus allowing the load unit to vaporize the liquefied medication with a constant power. The present invention prevents the constant power from changing due to medication box replacements.
