Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If existing passenger conveying systems are designed in a linear arrangement with fixed configuration, then the system structure is simple and easy to manufacture, but the system cannot adapt to varying site conditions particularly in terms of length and configuration
Solution Approach 1:
The passenger conveying system is divided into multiple detachable modular devices, each comprising a motion portion and a base portion. These modules can be connected in series to form different lengths and configurations, allowing the system to adapt to various site conditions while maintaining relatively simple individual module designs.
Solution Approach 2:
The system employs detachable connections between modules that allow dynamic reconfiguration. The modular devices can be assembled and disassembled to create different system lengths and arrangements, transforming the system from a fixed configuration to a dynamically adaptable structure.
2Productivity
If existing passenger conveying systems are built with fixed length and configuration, then the manufacturing and installation process is straightforward, but the installation efficiency is low and construction costs increase when site conditions vary
Solution Approach 1:
By segmenting the system into standardized modular devices, the patent enables rapid assembly and disassembly during installation. Each module can be manufactured independently using standardized processes, improving both manufacturing efficiency and installation speed while maintaining ease of manufacture through standardization.
Solution Approach 2:
The system allows changing the overall length and configuration parameters by varying the number and arrangement of modular devices. This enables the same basic module design to be used across different applications, maintaining manufacturing simplicity while achieving high installation efficiency through flexible parameter adjustment.
3Adaptability or versatility
If modularized devices are used with detachable connections, then the system can adapt to different site conditions and improve installation efficiency, but the device structure becomes more complex
Solution Approach 1:
The patent divides the system into standardized modular devices with consistent internal structures. While the overall system becomes more flexible, each individual module maintains a relatively simple and uniform structure, reducing the complexity burden on any single component.
Solution Approach 2:
The modular devices are designed with universal interfaces and standardized structures that can be used in multiple configurations. This multi-functionality allows the same module design to serve various purposes, reducing the need for specialized complex components for different applications.
