Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If the telematic appliance is installed inside the vehicle compartment and connected to vehicle electronics, then the appliance can collect vehicle information, but the installation becomes lengthy and complicated
Solution Approach 1:
The invention extracts the telematic appliance from the traditional installation location (inside vehicle compartment connected to vehicle electronics) and relocates it to the vehicle battery. This extraction eliminates the need for complex connections to vehicle electronics while maintaining access to necessary information through the battery's electrical system.
Solution Approach 2:
The battery serves as an intermediary mounting point that provides both mechanical support and electrical access. By installing the appliance on the battery, the system uses the battery as a mediator to access vehicle electrical information without requiring direct connection to complex vehicle electronics.
2Reliability
If the telematic appliance is installed inside the vehicle compartment and connected to vehicle electronics, then the appliance can function properly, but labor costs increase
Solution Approach 1:
The invention extracts the appliance from the complex vehicle electronics environment and relocates it to the simpler battery mounting location. This extraction maintains functionality through electrical connection to the battery while dramatically simplifying the installation process and reducing labor requirements.
3Reliability
If the telematic appliance uses traditional installation methods, then it can access vehicle electronics, but the installation procedure becomes complicated
Solution Approach 1:
The battery acts as an intermediary that provides both mechanical mounting and electrical access points. This intermediary approach maintains reliable access to vehicle electrical data while simplifying installation to basic battery mounting procedures that are easier to perform.
