Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If conventional anti-slip control methods are used, then wheel slip can be reduced, but signal lag and prolonged control periods occur, reducing response speed

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveanti-slip control effectivenessVSAvoidcontrol response time
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary calculations of target motor speed based on optimal slip rate and adhesion coefficient before slip occurs. By pre-establishing the control strategy and having target values ready, the system eliminates signal lag when slip detection occurs, enabling immediate torque adjustment without waiting for complete signal processing chains.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent replaces conventional mechanical/signal-based slip detection and control systems with a direct calculation approach. Instead of relying on mechanical sensors and lengthy signal transmission chains, the system directly calculates optimal slip rate and target motor speed using mathematical relationships between adhesion coefficient, slip rate, and motor parameters, significantly reducing control latency.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

2Stability of the object's composition

If motor torque is adjusted to reduce wheel slip, then vehicle stability is improved, but acceleration performance and deceleration braking capability are affected

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevehicle stabilityVSAvoidacceleration performance
Core Design Contradiction:
Stability of the object's compositionVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The system dynamically changes the optimal slip rate parameter based on the adhesion coefficient of the road surface. By calculating the optimal slip rate as a function of adhesion conditions, the system adjusts motor torque to maintain this optimal slip rate, ensuring maximum traction utilization. This allows the vehicle to achieve both stability and optimal acceleration performance by adapting the slip rate parameter to current road conditions rather than using fixed torque reduction strategies.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes
