Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the rotation angle is increased to improve user experience, then the rotation scope is expanded, but the wiring will be frayed and twisted off causing damage to the electronic device
Solution Approach 1:
The electrical connection is segmented into multiple independent conductors within the wiring harness, allowing each conductor to move independently during rotation. This segmentation prevents the wiring from twisting off as a unified structure, enabling greater rotation scope while maintaining reliability.
Solution Approach 2:
The wiring harness is designed with flexible insulation layers and protective sheaths that can bend and flex without breaking. These flexible structures allow the wiring to accommodate large rotation angles while preventing fraying and damage, resolving the contradiction between rotation scope and wiring durability.
2Adaptability or versatility
If the wiring is made more flexible to allow greater rotation, then the rotation angle is increased, but the electrical connection stability may be compromised
Solution Approach 1:
The electrical connection system is designed to be dynamic rather than rigid, allowing the wiring harness to adapt its configuration during rotation. The flexible conductors can dynamically adjust their position and orientation while maintaining continuous electrical contact, ensuring both rotation capability and connection stability.
Solution Approach 2:
Multiple electrical conductors are merged into a unified wiring harness structure with common insulation and protection layers. This merging provides both flexibility for rotation and structural stability for maintaining electrical connections, resolving the contradiction between rotation angle and connection stability.
3Reliability
If a rigid wiring structure is used to maintain electrical connection stability, then the electrical connection is reliable, but the rotation angle is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The wiring harness employs flexible insulation shells and protective films that maintain structural integrity while allowing bending and rotation. These flexible protective layers enable the wiring to achieve both reliability through maintained connection and adaptability through increased rotation angle.
Solution Approach 2:
The wiring structure uses composite materials combining conductive cores with flexible insulating and protective layers. This composite construction provides both the electrical reliability of stable conductors and the mechanical flexibility needed for large rotation angles, resolving the contradiction between reliability and adaptability.
