Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If comprehensive test equipment and methods are implemented to test safety and reliability under function loss conditions, then measurement precision and reliability are improved, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetesting accuracyVSAvoidequipment complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The test device is designed with multi-functional capabilities to perform various testing operations including position detection, pose detection, function loss condition injection, and result determination through an integrated controller, thereby achieving comprehensive testing without requiring multiple separate equipment systems

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

Solution Approach 2:

The test device acts as an intermediary system between the remote control parking system and the testing environment, providing standardized interfaces for injecting function loss conditions and collecting test data, which simplifies the overall testing architecture while maintaining measurement precision

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Reliability

If a fixed mounted test device is used to record real state data repeatedly, then reliability and reproducibility are improved, but ease of operation decreases due to installation requirements

Engineering Contradiction:
ImprovereproducibilityVSAvoidinstallation convenience
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The test device is pre-configured with integrated sensors and controllers that are mounted in fixed positions within the vehicle before testing begins, allowing immediate and consistent data collection without requiring repeated installation or calibration during different test runs

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

Multiple testing functions including position sensing, pose sensing, and control operations are merged into a single integrated test device that is fixed-mounted in the vehicle, eliminating the need for multiple separate equipment installations while ensuring consistent relative positions for reproducible testing

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

3Ease of operation

If the test device occupies small space inside the vehicle, then ease of operation is improved, but device complexity may increase to achieve compact integration

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinstallation easeVSAvoidintegration complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The test device employs a nested structure where sensors and controllers are integrated within a compact housing that fits within the vehicle's existing infrastructure, with components arranged in hierarchical layers to maximize space utilization while maintaining functional independence

Inventive Principle:
Principle #7Nested doll (Nesting)

Solution Approach 2:

The compact test device is designed as a multi-functional unit that performs position detection, pose detection, and control operations through integrated sensors and controllers, eliminating the need for multiple separate equipment installations and reducing overall spatial requirements

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