Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If existing robots execute simple tasks, then the device structure remains simple, but the service efficiency and ability to meet user needs deteriorate

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveservice efficiencyVSAvoidtask execution complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments complex tasks into multiple sub-tasks with specific operation actions. Each sub-task is assigned to appropriate apparatuses (gripping or moving), allowing the system to handle complex tasks through coordinated execution of simpler sub-components, thereby improving service efficiency without requiring overwhelming overall system complexity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements dynamic task allocation where the controlling apparatus dynamically assigns sub-tasks to gripping or moving apparatuses based on the operation action type. This dynamic coordination enables the system to adapt to different task requirements, improving productivity while maintaining manageable device complexity through flexible resource allocation

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

2Adaptability or versatility

If robots execute complex tasks, then the ability to meet user needs improves, but the task execution capability and coordination requirements worsen

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetask execution capabilityVSAvoidcoordination complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

Complex tasks are divided into sub-tasks with clearly defined operation actions (e.g., gripping actions assigned to gripping apparatus, moving actions assigned to moving apparatus). This segmentation enables the system to execute diverse complex tasks by coordinating specialized components, enhancing adaptability while keeping coordination manageable through clear task-apparatus mapping

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The controlling apparatus serves multiple functions: it generates sub-tasks, determines apparatus assignments, coordinates execution, and manages interactions. This multi-functionality allows the system to handle various complex tasks with different requirements using a unified control framework, improving versatility without proportionally increasing coordination complexity

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