Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If manual cleaning operation is used, then cleaning operation can be performed with acceptable cleaning effects, but cleaning efficiency is low and secondary pollution occurs
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces manual mechanical cleaning operations with an automated cleaning apparatus that uses magnetic attraction forces. The cleaning mechanism is connected to the robot arm through adaptor mechanisms involving locking sleeves and connecting rods, enabling automatic cleaning without human contact with the platform, thereby eliminating secondary pollution from operator impurities while maintaining cleaning effectiveness.
2Productivity
If manual cleaning operation is used, then cleaning operation can be performed, but cleaning range is smaller and cleaning efficiency is low
Solution Approach 1:
The cleaning apparatus is designed to be self-operating through automated control systems. The robot arm automatically positions and maneuvers the cleaning mechanism across the platform surface, and the adaptor mechanisms with locking sleeves and connecting rods enable automatic engagement and disengagement, eliminating the need for complex manual operations and expanding the cleaning coverage area.
3Productivity
If automatic cleaning equipment is developed, then cleaning efficiency can be improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The cleaning apparatus is divided into modular components: a robot arm for positioning, adaptor mechanisms with locking sleeves and connecting rods for connection, and a cleaning mechanism for actual cleaning. This segmentation allows each component to perform its specific function independently, simplifying the overall system design while maintaining high cleaning efficiency and enabling easy maintenance and replacement of individual modules.
