Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If glue poured way is used to encapsulate the chamber where locates the lamp-housing and photoelectric sensor in the silica gel finger pad, then the device is sealed and protected, but the manufacturing complexity increases and consistency deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the lamp-housing chamber and photoelectric sensor chamber into a single integrated cavity within the silica gel finger pad. This eliminates the need for separate glue encapsulation processes for multiple chambers, simplifying manufacturing while maintaining the sealing protection that the unified cavity structure provides.
2Volume of moving object
If battery is installed into the battery compartment which is in the inner side of the finger type pulse and blood oxygen measuring device, then the device structure is compact, but battery installation becomes inconvenient and anti-damage capability weakens
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the battery compartment from the main device body by providing a removable battery cover. This allows the battery to be easily accessed and replaced by users without disassembling the entire device, maintaining compactness while significantly improving battery installation convenience and accessibility.
3Stability of the object's composition
If battery compartment structure is used with internal battery installation, then the device structure is integrated, but anti-damage capability and ease of maintenance deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent divides the device into separable modules including a removable battery cover and detachable finger pad. This modular segmentation allows damaged components to be easily replaced without affecting the entire device, improving anti-damage capability and ease of maintenance while preserving overall structural integration through standardized connection interfaces.
