Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If manual adjustment of massage element position is used, then device structure remains simple, but adjustment efficiency and precision are low
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces manual mechanical adjustment with an automated electromechanical system. An electric actuator (motor) drives a shaft that rotates to adjust the tilt angle of the massage module, eliminating the need for manual manipulation of mechanical linkages and achieving automated positioning control.
Solution Approach 2:
The massage device performs self-adjustment through the integrated electric actuator and controller system. The controller automatically controls the actuator to adjust the massage module position based on programmed parameters, allowing the device to adjust itself without continuous manual intervention.
2Adaptability or versatility
If static massage elements are used, then device structure is simple, but functionality and adaptability are limited
Solution Approach 1:
The patent transforms static massage elements into dynamic, adjustable components. The massage module can rotate around its longitudinal axis through the shaft and magnet interaction system, allowing the tilt angle to be changed during operation. This enables the same physical structure to adapt to different massage requirements and positions.
Solution Approach 2:
The massage device is divided into modular components: a base unit, a detachable holder, and a separate massage module. This segmentation allows the massage module to be independently adjusted and repositioned without affecting the entire device structure, enhancing adaptability while maintaining overall structural simplicity.
3Measurement precision
If automatic adjustment mechanism is added, then control precision of tilt angle is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces imprecise mechanical angle adjustment with an electromechanical system controlled by a controller and electric actuator. The controller receives input signals and precisely controls the actuator to achieve accurate tilt angle positioning, overcoming the limitations of purely mechanical adjustment mechanisms.
Solution Approach 2:
The system incorporates feedback control where the controller monitors the position of the massage module and adjusts the electric actuator accordingly. This feedback mechanism ensures precise control of the tilt angle by continuously correcting any deviations from the desired position.
Applied Scientific Principles
This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case
Enables efficient and automatic control of massage element tilt angles, enhancing device functionality and user experience.
Implementation Method 1
the balancing magnet and the body's opposing magnet are placed, so as to ensure that the massage module returns after turning to at least its initial position
Implementation Method 2
the shaft equipped with the opposing magnet is placed, so as to interact with the turning magnet, when turned to a given position, prompting the massage module to rotate around its longitudinal axis toward the shaft's opposing magnet
