Innovation Solution

A safety control circuit integrated with an EC5 input module, ignition clip module, relay module, timing control module, high-voltage and low-voltage protection modules, temperature protection modules, error alarm module, and light display module, which provides fast response and high safety for starting vehicles by automatically detecting battery voltage and preventing over/under voltage conditions.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Device complexity

If a simple structure is used in the emergency starting clamp, then the device complexity is reduced, but the safety and response speed deteriorate

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvestructure simplicityVSAvoidsafety
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The control circuit is divided into multiple independent functional modules: voltage detection module, temperature detection module, control module, and protection module. Each module performs a specific function, allowing the system to achieve high reliability through modular design while keeping individual modules simple and manageable.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The voltage detection module and temperature detection module continuously monitor battery voltage and temperature before the starting operation begins. The control module pre-judges whether the battery can be started successfully and prepares the appropriate working mode in advance, ensuring safe operation before actual use.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Device complexity

If a simple structure is used in the emergency starting clamp, then the device complexity is reduced, but the response speed deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvestructure simplicityVSAvoidresponse speed
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSSpeed

Solution Approach 1:

The detection modules continuously monitor voltage and temperature parameters in advance, so when the starting operation is needed, the control module can immediately make a judgment and switch to the appropriate working mode without delay, achieving fast response despite the simple structure.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The control circuit automatically detects battery status and switches working modes without user intervention. The system self-judges whether to enable starting protection or direct starting based on real-time voltage and temperature readings, eliminating manual operation delays.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

3Reliability

If voltage protection modules are added to prevent over/under voltage conditions, then the safety is improved, but the device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
ImprovesafetyVSAvoidcircuit complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The voltage detection function and temperature detection function are merged into a single control circuit system. The control module integrates multiple protection functions (over-voltage protection, under-voltage protection, temperature protection) into one unified circuit design, achieving comprehensive safety without proportionally increasing overall complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The control circuit is designed with multi-functionality, serving both as a detection system and a protection system. The same control module that detects battery status also performs the protection functions, eliminating the need for separate dedicated protection circuits and reducing overall system complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

4Adaptability or versatility

If multiple protection modules are integrated, then the functionality is enriched, but the device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
ImprovefunctionalityVSAvoidcircuit complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

Multiple protection functions (voltage detection, temperature detection, over-voltage protection, under-voltage protection, temperature protection) are merged into a single integrated control circuit. The control module coordinates all these functions within one unified design, enriching functionality while managing complexity through integration.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The control circuit is designed as a universal multi-functional system that can handle various battery conditions (over-voltage, under-voltage, high temperature, low temperature) using the same basic architecture, allowing the system to adapt to different scenarios without requiring separate dedicated circuits for each function.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)
