Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Device complexity
If traditional mechanical sighting devices are used, then the sighting can be accomplished with simple structure, but the mechanical parts wear out causing unquantifiable deviation and reduced accuracy
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces the traditional mechanical sighting system with a photoelectric sighting system that uses optical lenses, photoelectric sensors, and digital processing. The sighting line and target image are formed optically and displayed electronically, eliminating mechanical adjustment parts that wear out, thus resolving the contradiction between simple structure and long-term reliability.
2Measurement precision
If photoelectric sighting system is used, then the sighting accuracy is improved, but the system becomes large-sized and complex requiring multiple sensor accessories
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the field-of-view acquisition unit, display unit, and sighting circuit unit into an integrated photoelectric sighting system with a unified shell structure. This consolidation achieves accurate sighting while reducing overall system complexity compared to separate mechanical and optical components.
Solution Approach 2:
The photoelectric sighting system performs multiple functions including field-of-view acquisition, image processing, sighting line generation, and display within a single integrated device, eliminating the need for multiple separate sensor accessories and reducing system complexity.
3Measurement precision
If multiple environmental sensors are added to photoelectric sighting system, then the environmental factor measurement is improved, but the device complexity and size increase
Solution Approach 1:
The photoelectric sighting system uses its own optical components and photoelectric sensors to acquire and process environmental visual information directly, without requiring external environmental sensors. The system serves itself by utilizing the same optical path for both sighting and environmental assessment.
