Solution Overview

Problem

Existing photovoltaic systems face challenges with the routing of wires inside electronic devices, which can damage components, increase device size and cost, and affect electromagnetic compatibility (EMC).

Innovation Solution

A wiring structure that includes a first terminal directly connected to the electronic component within the housing, and a second terminal with a quick-connecting terminal and an electrical connection module. This configuration allows for secure and compact electrical connections between electronic devices or with external circuits, minimizing internal wiring and enhancing EMC.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If wires are routed inside the box, then electrical connection between terminals is achieved, but the wire diameter and support structure occupy layout space increasing device size

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveelectrical connectionVSAvoiddevice size
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSVolume of moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts the wire routing function from the internal box space by providing wires that extend from the box through openings. The wires are routed externally rather than being confined inside the box, thereby freeing up internal space while maintaining electrical connectivity between terminals.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent transitions the wire routing from a two-dimensional internal path to a three-dimensional external path by extending wires through box openings. This dimensional change allows wires to connect terminals without occupying valuable internal layout space, effectively resolving the space constraint.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

2Reliability

If wires are routed inside the box, then electrical connection is established, but support structures are needed to ensure safe distance from components increasing device complexity

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveelectrical connectionVSAvoidsupport structure
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent removes the need for internal support structures by extracting the wire routing to external paths through box openings. Wires are positioned outside the box where they naturally maintain safe distances from sensitive internal components without requiring additional support infrastructure.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The box openings serve as intermediaries that facilitate wire passage from the external environment to internal terminals. This intermediary structure eliminates the need for complex internal support systems by providing a straightforward transmission path for wires through the box walls.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Reliability

If wires are routed inside the box, then electrical connection is achieved, but electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) of electronic devices is affected

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveelectrical connectionVSAvoidEMC
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts wires from the internal box environment to external routing paths. This separation removes potential sources of electromagnetic interference from the sensitive internal electronic components, thereby improving electromagnetic compatibility while preserving electrical connectivity through external wire paths.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

4Power

If wire diameter is large, then current carrying capacity is improved, but more support structure is needed increasing device size and cost

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecurrent carrying capacityVSAvoiddevice size
Core Design Contradiction:
PowerVSVolume of moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts large-diameter wires from the internal box space to external routing paths. This allows the use of thick wires with high current carrying capacity without compromising internal device layout, as the wires traverse externally where they do not constrain internal component placement.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)
