Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Stability of the object's composition
If password protection is implemented to prevent accidental parameter changes, then parameter stability is improved, but the ability to handle erroneous parameters is not enhanced
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a feedback mechanism where the analysis device transmits parameter registration information to the management device, which then provides feedback by transmitting determination results about parameter appropriateness. This closed-loop feedback system allows the system to not only prevent accidental changes through password protection but also to identify and correct erroneous parameters by comparing registered parameters against stored reference information, thereby simultaneously achieving parameter stability and error handling capability.
2Ease of operation
If measurement parameters can be freely registered and changed for user convenience, then ease of operation is improved, but measurement accuracy deteriorates due to operation mistakes and lack of knowledge
Solution Approach 1:
The system maintains ease of operation by allowing free parameter registration and change, while simultaneously ensuring measurement accuracy through automated feedback. The management device receives parameter registration information, determines appropriateness by comparing with stored reference parameters, and transmits determination results back to the analysis device. This feedback loop enables users to operate conveniently while the system automatically prevents inaccurate measurements by identifying erroneous parameters.
Solution Approach 2:
The management device serves as an intermediary between the user's parameter registration actions and the analysis device's measurement operations. It receives parameter information from the analysis device, compares it against stored reference information, determines appropriateness, and provides feedback. This intermediary role allows user convenience to be maintained while ensuring measurement accuracy through automated parameter validation.
3Reliability
If parameter changes are restricted through password requirements, then parameter reliability is improved, but operational efficiency deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The system improves parameter reliability through automated feedback mechanisms rather than relying solely on password restrictions. The management device automatically receives parameter registration information, determines appropriateness by comparing with reference data, and provides feedback to the analysis device. This automated process maintains parameter reliability while improving operational efficiency by eliminating the need for manual password verification for every parameter change.
Solution Approach 2:
The management device performs self-service by automatically determining the appropriateness of registered parameters through comparison with stored reference information. This self-service capability eliminates the need for manual intervention or password verification, thereby maintaining parameter reliability while significantly improving operational efficiency. The system serves itself by automatically validating and feedback on parameter registrations.
