Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If wire-like transmission members with different covering materials are welded to a sheet member, then the adaptability and versatility of the wiring member is improved, but the welding quality and reliability deteriorate due to material incompatibility
Solution Approach 1:
The sheet member is divided into multiple layers, each layer being made of a specific material that corresponds to the covering material of particular wire-like transmission members. This segmentation allows each wire type to be welded to its compatible layer, resolving the material incompatibility issue while maintaining versatility.
Solution Approach 2:
Different regions (layers) of the sheet member are assigned different material properties to match the specific requirements of different wire-like transmission members. The first layer is configured for welding with first covering material, while the second layer is configured for welding with second covering material, ensuring optimal welding quality for each type.
2Adaptability or versatility
If multiple layers with different materials are used in the sheet member, then the welding compatibility with different wire materials is improved, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
Multiple layers with different materials are combined into a single integrated sheet member structure. This merging approach provides the benefits of material diversity for welding compatibility while maintaining a unified component that can be handled and installed as one piece, thus limiting the increase in complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The multi-layer sheet member serves multiple functions simultaneously: it provides structural support, electrical insulation, and material-specific welding surfaces for different wire types. This multi-functionality reduces the need for separate components, thereby managing complexity while enhancing versatility.
3Strength
If wire-like transmission members are welded to a multi-layer sheet member, then the fixing strength is improved, but the overall thickness increases
Solution Approach 1:
Each wire-like transmission member is welded to only the specific layer required for optimal bonding, rather than penetrating through all layers. This partial action approach ensures sufficient fixing strength for each connection while minimizing the overall thickness increase of the wiring member assembly.
