Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If multiple optical assemblies are arranged within the optical module to enhance image quality, then optical adjustment precision is improved, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveoptical adjustment precisionVSAvoiddevice complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The optical module is divided into multiple independent optical assemblies, each performing specific optical adjustment functions. Each assembly can be independently controlled and adjusted, allowing precise optical optimization while maintaining manageable complexity through modular architecture.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The guide rod structure serves multiple functions simultaneously: it guides the movement of the auto-focus optical assembly, provides structural support, and maintains positional stability. This multi-functionality reduces the need for additional separate components, thereby managing device complexity while achieving refined optical adjustments.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

2Stability of the object's composition

If a guide rod is used to guide the movement of the auto-focus optical assembly, then structural stability is improved, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvestructural stabilityVSAvoiddevice complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Stability of the object's compositionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The guide rod is designed as a multi-functional component that simultaneously provides movement guidance, structural support, and positional stability for the auto-focus optical assembly. By consolidating these functions into a single component rather than using separate elements for each function, the overall device complexity is managed while achieving enhanced structural stability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

3Adaptability or versatility

If multiple optical assemblies are arranged to achieve wider range optical adjustment, then optical adjustment versatility is improved, but ease of operation deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveoptical adjustment versatilityVSAvoidease of operation
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The optical adjustment system is segmented into multiple independent assemblies, each with dedicated driving mechanisms. This segmentation allows each assembly to be controlled independently through standardized interfaces, making the complex multi-assembly system easier to operate through modular control rather than requiring complex coordinated manipulation of all assemblies simultaneously.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation
