Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If a battery is provided in the pet electronic product to enable normal operation, then the product can function normally, but the product lacks the function of displaying electric quantity, causing sudden power-off during use
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies feedback by introducing a display screen that continuously shows the battery's electric quantity information to the user. The battery management module constantly monitors the battery status and feeds back the electric quantity through the display screen, enabling users to know the remaining power and avoid sudden power-offs by charging in advance.
2Device complexity
If no display function is added to show electric quantity, then the device structure remains simple, but the user cannot monitor battery status and must deal with sudden power-off
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by displaying the battery electric quantity information in advance before the battery is completely depleted. Users can see the remaining power level and take preventive action to charge or replace the battery before sudden power-off occurs, thus maintaining operation continuity without requiring complex backup systems.
3Loss of information
If a display screen and battery management module are added to show electric quantity, then users can monitor battery status, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies multi-functionality by designing the display screen to serve multiple purposes: displaying battery electric quantity, showing operational status, and potentially providing warning indicators. The battery management module not only monitors electric quantity but also manages charging processes and controls power distribution, making the added components perform multiple functions to justify the increased complexity.
