Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Duration of action of stationary object
If conventional electric bulbs or fluorescent lamps are used, then the lighting apparatus can provide illumination, but the lifespan is short and illuminance decreases over time requiring frequent replacement
Solution Approach 1:
The lighting apparatus is divided into multiple independent LED modules, each with its own substrate containing light emitting devices and driving driver. This segmentation allows individual modules to be replaced without affecting the entire system, extending the effective lifespan and maintaining reliability through modular replacement rather than complete system replacement.
2Duration of action of stationary object
If LED lighting apparatus is used, then lifespan is extended and electro-optic conversion efficiency is improved, but the shape is limited by spatial structure constraints
Solution Approach 1:
The lighting apparatus is divided into multiple independent LED modules that can be separately installed and configured. Each module contains a substrate with light emitting devices and driving driver, allowing the modules to be arranged in various configurations to adapt to different spatial requirements while maintaining the benefits of LED technology.
Solution Approach 2:
The standardized module design with main base, extension parts, and auxiliary bases creates a universal unit that can be applied in multiple spatial configurations and installation scenarios. This multi-functional module can adapt to different spaces and mounting requirements, increasing the versatility of LED lighting applications.
3Adaptability or versatility
If a modular design with extension parts and auxiliary bases is used, then spatial adaptability and flexibility of installation are improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The case is segmented into functional components (main base, extension parts, auxiliary bases) that provide adaptability while maintaining modular simplicity. Each component has a specific function, allowing flexibility in configuration without requiring complex integrated designs.
Solution Approach 2:
The auxiliary bases extend from the extension parts toward the center of the main base, creating a nested structural arrangement. This nesting approach allows multiple functional elements to be integrated in a compact manner, providing spatial adaptability while controlling overall structural complexity through hierarchical organization.
