Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The vehicle body control device cannot correctly process control information due to identification information competition between the mounted equipment control device and the vehicle body control device.
Innovation Solution
A mounted equipment information conversion apparatus that converts mounted equipment identification information into vehicle-body-side identification information using a conversion table, ensuring compatibility and correct processing by the vehicle body control device.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If mounted-equipment-side identification information and vehicle-body-side identification information are used independently in各自的 control devices, then each control device can identify its own control information, but identification information competition occurs and the vehicle body control device cannot correctly process the control information
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a conversion apparatus as an intermediary between the mounted equipment control device and the vehicle body control device. This intermediary converts mounted-equipment-side identification information into vehicle-body-side identification information according to a conversion rule, enabling compatible communication between the two systems without direct conflict. The conversion apparatus mediates the identification information exchange, allowing the vehicle body control device to correctly process control information from mounted equipment.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the parameter of identification information by converting mounted-equipment-side identification information into vehicle-body-side identification information. This parameter transformation is performed according to a conversion rule that maps between the two identification systems. By changing the identification information parameter format, the system resolves the competition between different identification schemes while maintaining the ability to uniquely identify control information.
2Reliability
If identification information conversion is implemented between mounted equipment and vehicle body control systems, then correct processing of control information is enabled, but system complexity increases due to the conversion apparatus and conversion rules
Solution Approach 1:
The conversion apparatus serves as a dedicated intermediary component that handles the complexity of identification information conversion. By isolating the conversion logic in a separate apparatus, the complexity is contained and managed centrally rather than being distributed throughout the entire system. This intermediary approach enables correct control information processing while keeping the overall system architecture clear and manageable.
Solution Approach 2:
The conversion rule is established in advance before actual control information exchange occurs. By pre-defining the conversion relationships between mounted-equipment-side and vehicle-body-side identification information, the system avoids the need for complex real-time conversion logic. This preliminary setup of conversion rules simplifies the operational complexity of the system while ensuring reliable information processing.

AI summary
A mounted equipment information conversion apparatus includes: a mounted equipment information acquiring part that acquires, from a mounted equipment control device, mounted equipment information including control information used in the mounted equipment control device controlling a mounted equipment body, and mounted-equipment-side identification information for identifying the control information; and a mounted equipment information converting part that converts the mounted-equipment-side identification information included in the mounted equipment information into vehicle-body-side identification information associated with the mounted-equipment-side identification information, according to a conversion rule in which the vehicle-body-side identification information used in a vehicle body control device controlling a vehicle body connected to the mounted equipment body is associated with the mounted-equipment-side identification information.
