Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If shared SIM card services are provided on a service platform, then service availability and accessibility are improved, but service quality becomes uneven due to human and objective factors

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveservice availabilityVSAvoidservice quality

Core Design Contradiction:

Adaptability or versatilityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements a feedback mechanism by collecting operating parameters from SIM card suppliers and request terminals, calculating shared service indexes based on these parameters, and using these indexes to evaluate and compare service quality. This closed-loop feedback system enables continuous monitoring and improvement of service quality while maintaining platform accessibility.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The patent replaces subjective human judgment of service quality with an automated computational system that calculates shared service indexes based on objective operating parameters. This substitution of mechanical/computational evaluation for human assessment eliminates human factor errors and provides consistent, reliable quality measurement across all shared SIM card services.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

2Adaptability or versatility

If users can select from multiple SIM card resources, then service selection flexibility is improved, but difficulty in identifying high-quality services increases

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveservice selection flexibilityVSAvoidservice quality identification

Core Design Contradiction:

Adaptability or versatilityVSDifficulty of detecting and measuring

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces shared service indexes as a visible indicator (analogous to color changes) that clearly distinguishes high-quality services from low-quality ones. These indexes transform abstract service quality into a measurable, comparable metric that users can easily identify and use for selection, solving the difficulty of detecting service quality among multiple options.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #32Color changes

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces shared service indexes as an intermediary between the complex operating parameters and user decision-making. These indexes serve as a simplified mediator that translates multiple technical parameters into a single, easy-to-understand quality metric, enabling users to make informed selections without needing to analyze complex underlying parameters.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Measurement precision

If shared service indexes are calculated based on operating parameters, then service quality measurement precision is improved, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveservice quality measurementVSAvoidsystem complexity

Core Design Contradiction:

Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the complex service quality assessment into distinct components: collecting operating parameters from specific sources (SIM card suppliers and request terminals), calculating shared service indexes through defined formulas, and using these indexes for evaluation. This segmentation transforms a complex monolithic system into manageable modular components, reducing overall system complexity while maintaining measurement precision.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #1Segmentation
