Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If multiple environmental sensors are added to the photoelectric sighting system to quantify environmental information, then the measurement precision of environmental factors is improved, but the device complexity and weight increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveenvironmental information measurementVSAvoidsensor accessories
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts and eliminates the need for multiple environmental sensors by using a simplified ballistics model that does not require environmental parameter inputs. The sighting system achieves accurate shooting without wind velocity sensors, temperature sensors, humidity sensors, and other environmental sensing components, thereby reducing device complexity while maintaining measurement capability through alternative computational methods

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent replaces the sensor-based environmental measurement system with a computational ballistics model that calculates trajectory based on sighting angle and distance alone. This substitution eliminates the mechanical and electronic sensor accessories while achieving the same functional goal of compensating for environmental effects through mathematical modeling of bullet trajectory

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

2Ease of operation

If mechanical adjustment components like knobs are used for calibrating impact point and division center, then the ease of operation is improved, but the reliability deteriorates due to wear and unquantifiable deviation

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecalibration operationVSAvoidsighting accuracy
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent replaces mechanical adjustment knobs and manual calibration mechanisms with an electronic digital calibration system. The sighting system uses electronic sensors to detect the position of impact points and division centers, then performs digital calculations and electronic adjustments to achieve precise alignment. This eliminates mechanical wear, backlash, and unquantifiable deviations associated with manual knob adjustments while maintaining ease of operation through electronic interfaces

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

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements a self-calibrating system that automatically detects and corrects sighting alignment without requiring manual intervention. The system uses electronic sensors to automatically identify the positions of impact points and division centers, calculates the required adjustments, and performs self-correction through electronic actuation, thereby eliminating the need for repeated manual calibration operations that cause mechanical wear

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

3Adaptability or versatility

If a large-sized complex photoelectric sighting system is equipped with multiple sensor accessories, then the adaptability to environmental factors is improved, but the portability and ease of operation worsen

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveenvironmental adaptationVSAvoidportability
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts and removes multiple sensor accessories (wind velocity sensors, temperature sensors, humidity sensors) from the photoelectric sighting system by demonstrating that they are not necessary for achieving accurate shooting. The system achieves environmental adaptability through a simplified ballistics model that uses only essential parameters (sighting angle and distance) combined with computational algorithms that account for environmental effects without requiring direct environmental measurements

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent creates a universal sighting system that adapts to various environmental conditions through a single integrated ballistics model rather than through multiple specialized sensors. The simplified model can handle different environments (wind, temperature, humidity) using a unified computational approach that requires no additional sensors or accessories, thereby maintaining portability and ease of operation while achieving broad environmental adaptability

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