Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Strength
If a protective case is added to the electronic device, then the device protection and support functionality are improved, but the magnetic alignment between the device and wireless charging device is disrupted
Solution Approach 1:
The protective case is segmented into a housing and a detachable magnetic assembly. The magnetic assembly can be separated from the housing, allowing users to remove it when wireless charging is needed, thus eliminating magnetic interference while maintaining protection when the assembly is attached.
Solution Approach 2:
The magnetic alignment member is extracted as a separate detachable component from the protective case housing. This allows the magnetic assembly to be removed when it interferes with wireless charging, while the housing remains as protective coverage.
2Reliability
If the magnetic alignment member is fixedly connected to the case, then the magnetic alignment is maintained, but the case cannot provide flexible support positioning
Solution Approach 1:
The support member is designed with rotational capability relative to the housing, transforming it from a static fixed component to a dynamic adjustable component. This allows the support member to rotate to different angles and positions, providing flexible support positioning while maintaining magnetic alignment functionality when needed.
3Adaptability or versatility
If the support member is made movable to provide flexible positioning, then the adaptability is improved, but the structural complexity of the case increases
Solution Approach 1:
The magnetic alignment member and support member are merged into a single integrated magnetic assembly. This combination allows the support functionality and magnetic alignment to work together through a unified structure, reducing the number of separate components and simplifying the overall case structure despite the added movement capability.
