Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the electric power unit is designed to be compact for mounting on various working machines, then the mounting versatility is improved, but the space for accommodating all necessary components becomes limited
Solution Approach 1:
The electric power unit is divided into a motor unit and a separate electrical equipment unit. The motor unit can be mounted on the working machine independently, while the electrical equipment unit can be attached or detached as needed. This segmentation allows the motor unit to be compact for versatile mounting, while the separate electrical equipment provides necessary functionality without constraining the overall compactness.
Solution Approach 2:
The motor unit is designed with universal mounting capabilities that can accommodate different working machines. By separating the motor unit from the electrical equipment, the motor unit becomes a universal platform that can be adapted to various applications, while the electrical equipment can be configured according to specific machine requirements.
2Device complexity
If the electrical equipment is integrated with the motor in a single unit, then the structure is simplified, but the mounting flexibility and adaptability to different working machines is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The system is segmented into a motor unit and an electrical equipment unit that can be separately mounted or integrated. This allows the motor unit to maintain simple universal mounting characteristics while the electrical equipment can be attached to create integrated configurations when needed, providing both simplicity and flexibility.
Solution Approach 2:
The configuration of the electric power unit is made dynamic rather than fixed. The electrical equipment can be attached to or detached from the motor unit depending on the specific application requirements, allowing the system to adapt its degree of integration based on mounting flexibility needs versus structural simplicity preferences.
3Adaptability or versatility
If the motor and electrical equipment are mounted separately on the working machine, then the mounting flexibility is improved, but the vibration transmission between components increases
Solution Approach 1:
When the electrical equipment is attached to the motor unit, an intermediary mounting structure is used that provides vibration isolation. This intermediary connection allows the components to be mounted separately for flexibility while incorporating vibration-reducing elements that prevent direct vibration transmission between the motor and electrical equipment.
