Solution Overview
Problem
Existing modular cleanroom systems face challenges in accurate leveling during transportation and docking due to the lack of built-in leveling functions in conveying devices, leading to complex and inaccurate leveling operations.
Innovation Solution
A leveling device comprising a leveling plate with independently adjustable first and second leveling members, controlled by a controller, allows for precise leveling of the modular cleanroom, enabling quick and accurate docking.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If manual adjustment of leveling pads is used during docking, then the modular cleanroom can be leveled, but the operation becomes complex and time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
The leveling pads are pre-adjusted to different heights before docking. The movable modular cleanroom is equipped with multiple leveling pads (at least three) that can be adjusted to different heights in advance, so that during docking, the cleanroom can be quickly leveled by selecting the appropriate pre-adjusted pads rather than adjusting them during the docking process.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces an intermediary mechanism (the adjustable leveling pads with different heights) between the movable modular cleanroom and the ground. This intermediary allows for quick height compensation during docking without requiring complex manual adjustment operations, thereby simplifying the leveling process and reducing time loss.
2Adaptability or versatility
If the movable modular cleanroom is transported by forklift, then it can be moved to new positions, but the leveling state changes due to ground level differences
Solution Approach 1:
The leveling pads are pre-adjusted to different heights before transportation and docking operations. This preliminary adjustment ensures that when the movable modular cleanroom is transported to different positions by forklift, the pre-set different heights of the leveling pads can compensate for ground level differences, maintaining leveling precision without requiring re-leveling at each position.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the parameter of the leveling pads from a single fixed height to multiple adjustable heights. By providing leveling pads with at least three different heights, the system can adapt to different ground levels at various positions, thereby maintaining manufacturing precision (leveling accuracy) while enabling position adjustment versatility.
3Manufacturing precision
If multiple leveling pads are provided at different heights, then leveling accuracy improves, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The leveling device is segmented into multiple independent leveling pads, each capable of being adjusted to different heights. Instead of using a single complex adjustable mechanism, the patent divides the leveling function into multiple simple pads with different fixed heights, making each component simple while achieving overall high leveling accuracy through their combination.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent uses multiple simple, potentially replaceable leveling pads with different heights rather than a single complex, expensive adjustable mechanism. These pads can be easily adjusted or replaced as needed, reducing device complexity while maintaining high leveling accuracy. The simplicity of each individual pad compensates for the increased number of components.
