Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of manufacture

If air cooling device is used for CPU heat dissipation, then the structure is simple and easy to implement, but the heat dissipation performance is insufficient for modern high-speed CPUs and generates loud noise

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of implementationVSAvoidheat dissipation performance
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies hydraulic principles by using liquid cooling instead of air cooling. The liquid cooling system circulates coolant through pipes and heat exchange components to efficiently remove heat from the CPU, resolving the insufficient heat dissipation performance of air cooling while maintaining system reliability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #29Pneumatics and hydraulics

Solution Approach 2:

The patent replaces the mechanical air cooling system (fan and heat sink) with a liquid circulation system. This substitution eliminates the need for high-speed rotating fans that generate noise, while providing superior heat dissipation capacity for modern high-speed CPUs.

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

2Reliability

If liquid cooling system is implemented, then heat dissipation performance is improved and noise is reduced, but the device complexity increases due to multiple connecting structures and flow channels

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveheat dissipation performanceVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:

Solution Approach 1:

The liquid cooling system is divided into modular components including a pump unit with integrated connecting structures, separate liquid storage tanks, and distinct flow channels. This segmentation allows for easier assembly, maintenance, and troubleshooting while maintaining overall system performance.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The pump unit is designed with multiple connecting structures that can accommodate different configurations and connection types. The same pump body can serve multiple functions including fluid circulation, pressure regulation, and integration with various cooling components, thereby reducing overall system complexity.

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

Solution Approach 1:

The pump is integrated directly with the liquid storage tank, combining two separate components into one unified unit. This merging eliminates the need for separate mounting brackets and additional connection hardware, significantly simplifying installation while maintaining full fluid circulation capability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The pump and storage tank are designed with aligned connection ports and standardized interfaces at the same level, creating an equipotential installation configuration. This design allows for straightforward connection without requiring complex positioning or additional adjustment mechanisms, enhancing installation ease.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #12Equipotentiality
