Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If the image acquisition apparatus is installed outdoors to eliminate visual blind spots, then the working capability is improved, but the temperature rise due to direct sunlight exposure increases
Solution Approach 1:
A sunshading part is introduced as an intermediary element between the sunlight and the image acquisition apparatus. This sunshading part blocks direct sunlight from reaching the apparatus, thereby reducing temperature rise while allowing the apparatus to continue functioning outdoors
Solution Approach 2:
An air flow layer is created by spacing the sunshading part away from the upper box body, adding a spatial dimension for heat dissipation. This three-dimensional arrangement allows air circulation between the sunshading part and the apparatus, facilitating passive cooling
2Productivity
If data processing is performed on the acquired pictures to assist machine operation, then the working efficiency is improved, but the heat generation from processing increases
Solution Approach 1:
The heat generated by data processing, which is harmful in itself, is combined with the sunlight heat to create a unified heat dissipation pathway. The air flow layer and heat dissipation holes work together to expel this combined heat, converting the harmful effect into a manageable thermal flow that can be systematically discharged
Solution Approach 2:
The physical state of heat management is changed from internal accumulation to external dissipation. By introducing the air flow layer and heat dissipation holes, the system transitions from passive heat retention to active heat removal, changing the thermal parameters through structural modification
3Object-affected harmful factors
If the sunshading part is placed close to the upper box body to block sunlight, then the shading effect is improved, but the heat transfer from sunlight to the apparatus increases
Solution Approach 1:
The space between the sunshading part and the upper box body is segmented into a distinct air flow layer. This segmentation creates a thermal buffer zone that maintains the shading effect while preventing direct heat transfer to the apparatus
Solution Approach 2:
The air flow layer acts as a thermal intermediary between the sunshading part and the upper box body. This intermediate space allows the sunshading part to block sunlight effectively while the air layer prevents direct thermal conduction to the apparatus
