Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Manufacturing precision

If silicon steel sheets are stacked and fixed using traditional methods, then the structure can be assembled, but the alignment precision and structural integrity are insufficient

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvealignment precision of silicon steel sheetsVSAvoidstructural integrity
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSStrength

Solution Approach 1:

Positioning protrusions are pre-formed on the inner surface of the central hole of the first silicon steel sheet before assembly. These protrusions fit into corresponding positioning holes in the second silicon steel sheet, establishing precise alignment beforehand. This preliminary positioning action ensures that when the sheets are stacked, they maintain accurate relative positions without requiring complex adjustment during assembly.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The positioning protrusions are nested within the central hole structure of the first silicon steel sheet, and the protruding portion of the metal base is nested within the positioning hole of the second silicon steel sheet. This nested configuration allows the positioning features to be integrated within the existing structural elements, achieving precise alignment while maintaining a compact design.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #7Nested doll (Nesting)

2Object-affected harmful factors

If traditional fixation methods are used for silicon steel sheets, then assembly can be completed, but noise reduction and vibration damping are insufficient

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvenoise and vibrationVSAvoidstructure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Object-affected harmful factorsVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

An insulation member with damping properties is placed between the first and second silicon steel sheets before final assembly. This insulation member serves as a cushioning element that absorbs vibrations and reduces noise generated during motor operation. By incorporating this cushioning layer in advance, the harmful effects of noise and vibration are mitigated before they can propagate through the structure.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #11Beforehand cushioning (Prior cushioning)

3Reliability

If insulation is provided between silicon steel sheets, then electrical insulation is achieved, but the space for coil winding is reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveelectrical insulationVSAvoidcoil winding space
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSVolume of moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The insulation function is extracted from the coil winding space by placing the insulation member specifically between the silicon steel sheets, rather than within the coil winding area. This separation of insulation function from the coil space ensures that electrical insulation is provided where needed (between conductive silicon steel sheets) without encroaching on the volume available for coil winding.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

4Ease of manufacture

If the metal base structure is simplified, then manufacturing is easier, but positioning accuracy and fixation reliability are reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveassembly easeVSAvoidpositioning accuracy
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSManufacturing precision

Solution Approach 1:

The metal base features an asymmetric design with a central hole that is offset from the geometric center, and positioning protrusions that are strategically placed on the inner surface. The protruding portion extends in a specific direction to engage with the positioning hole. This asymmetric configuration provides precise positioning functionality while maintaining a relatively simple overall structure that is easy to manufacture.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #4Asymmetry
