Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If ground pressure observation is used for monitoring, then measurement precision is improved, but cost increases and large-scale monitoring becomes difficult
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates a three-dimensional digital model that copies and reproduces the actual mine geological structures, rock strata, and spatial relationships. This digital copy allows for virtual monitoring and analysis without requiring extensive physical measurements throughout the mine, thereby maintaining measurement precision while enabling large-scale monitoring capability.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces physical ground pressure observation equipment with a computational modeling system. By substituting mechanical measurement systems with a three-dimensional digital model based on point cloud data, the system achieves both precise measurement capabilities and the ability to conduct large-scale monitoring across the entire mine environment.
2Manufacturing precision
If professional 3D modeling software is used to reproduce actual coal seam appearance, then manufacturing precision is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent performs preliminary actions by collecting and processing point cloud data from the mine environment before creating the final three-dimensional model. This preliminary data collection and organization simplifies the subsequent modeling process, allowing professional software to achieve high manufacturing precision without proportionally increasing device complexity, as the difficult work of data acquisition and preprocessing is completed in advance.
