Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If traditional table structure is used, then manufacturing simplicity is maintained, but functional versatility is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple functions (support, energy generation, energy storage, digital control, and various digital modules) into a single table system. The solar chip, storage battery, control chip, and digital modules are integrated into the table structure, allowing one object to perform multiple functions simultaneously.
Solution Approach 2:
The table is designed as a universal platform that can perform both traditional support functions and modern digital functions. The digital modules can be configured for different purposes (lighting, charging, entertainment, etc.), making the table adaptable to various uses beyond its basic function.
2Use of energy by moving object
If solar chip and digital modules are added, then energy functionality is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The control chip acts as an intermediary that manages the interaction between the solar chip, storage battery, and digital modules. It coordinates energy flow and module operation, simplifying the control architecture despite the multiple components involved.
Solution Approach 2:
The solar chip automatically converts solar energy to electrical energy to charge the storage battery without external intervention. The system is designed to autonomously manage its own energy generation and storage, reducing the need for complex external control mechanisms.
