Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If traditional charging methods are used, then charging speed is maintained, but charging current instability causes safety risks and reduced battery life

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecharging safetyVSAvoidcharging control system complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements a feedback mechanism where the neural network model continuously receives real-time charging state data (current, temperature, voltage) and adjusts charging parameters dynamically. The model outputs predicted future states and compares them with safe thresholds, creating a closed-loop control system that stabilizes charging current while maintaining safety without requiring overly complex hardware modifications.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The patent replaces traditional mechanical/electrical charging control systems with an intelligent software-based neural network model. Instead of using complex circuitry and multiple sensors to detect and adjust charging parameters, the system uses a trained neural network that processes charging data and predicts future states, substituting physical control mechanisms with computational intelligence to simplify the overall system architecture.

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

2Stability of the object's composition

If real-time data collection and neural network training are implemented, then charging current stability is improved, but computational requirements and processing time increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecharging current stabilityVSAvoidmodel training time
Core Design Contradiction:
Stability of the object's compositionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent performs preliminary action by training the neural network model offline before actual charging operations. The model is trained using historical charging data to learn patterns and predict future charging states. This pre-training phase separates the computationally intensive learning process from the time-critical charging process, allowing the model to make rapid predictions during actual charging without requiring real-time training, thus maintaining current stability while minimizing time loss.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Reliability

If multiple parameters (current and temperature) are monitored and controlled, then battery safety is enhanced, but system complexity and control difficulty increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvebattery safetyVSAvoidcharging control ease
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges multiple monitoring functions (current detection, temperature sensing, voltage measurement) into a single integrated neural network model. Instead of implementing separate control systems for each parameter, the model receives all charging state data as unified input and generates coordinated control outputs. This consolidation simplifies the control architecture by handling multiple parameters through one intelligent system, making the charging process easier to operate while enhancing safety through comprehensive monitoring.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)
