Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If multiple luminescence units are used to emit various beams, then beam generation capability is improved, but costs and power consumption increase
Solution Approach 1:
A single luminescence unit is designed to serve multiple functions by generating a main beam that can be directed differently to create multiple reflected beams. The luminescence unit acts as a universal source that, combined with the reflecting unit, can produce various beam configurations for different applications without requiring separate units for each beam type.
Solution Approach 2:
The reflecting unit serves as an intermediary component that takes the main beam from the luminescence unit and redirects it to create additional reflected beams. This mediator allows one luminescence unit to effectively become multiple beam sources by manipulating the light path through reflection, thereby reducing the need for multiple direct luminescence units.
2Adaptability or versatility
If multiple luminescence units are used to emit various beams, then beam generation capability is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system employs a universal luminescence unit that can generate multiple beam types through its interaction with the reflecting unit. This multi-functional approach consolidates what would otherwise require multiple specialized units, thereby maintaining high adaptability while significantly reducing device complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The reflecting unit is merged with the luminescence unit to create an integrated beam generation system. By combining the light source and light manipulation components into a unified structure, the system achieves multiple beam generation capabilities without the complexity of separate units, as the reflecting unit workS in conjunction with the single luminescence unit to produce various beam configurations.
3Use of energy by stationary object
If a single luminescence unit is used with a reflecting unit, then costs and power consumption are reduced, but beam dimension adjustability must be maintained
Solution Approach 1:
The reflecting unit is designed with adjustable parameters such as the angle of reflection and the position of reflective surfaces. This dynamic adjustability allows the system to modify beam dimensions and directions in real-time, maintaining versatility despite using only a single luminescence unit. The dynamic properties of the reflecting unit compensate for the reduced number of light sources.
Solution Approach 2:
The system maintains beam dimension adjustability by changing parameters of the reflecting unit, such as the reflection angle, distance from the luminescence unit, and orientation of reflective surfaces. By varying these parameters, the system can generate beams of different dimensions and directions, ensuring adaptability while using a single luminescence unit to reduce power consumption and costs.
