Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If infrared physiotherapy equipment is used, then therapeutic effect is achieved, but the equipment is large in size and not portable
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts the therapeutic function from bulky infrared physiotherapy equipment by developing a terahertz material that can be integrated into wearable products. The material itself generates terahertz waves when heated, eliminating the need for large external equipment while maintaining therapeutic effectiveness.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces the mechanical/infrared heating system with a terahertz wave generation system. By using specific materials (CaCO3, SiO2, Al2O3, Fe2O3, ochre, zinc oxide, selenium, germanium, rare earth palladium, and SiOx) that generate terahertz waves when heated, the system transitions from conventional infrared therapy to terahertz therapy, achieving portability without sacrificing therapeutic effect.
2Ease of operation
If disposable adhesive tapes are used, then convenience is improved, but they cause allergies and pollute the environment
Solution Approach 1:
The patent enables recovery and reuse of the therapeutic material. The terahertz material can be heated and reused multiple times, eliminating the need for disposable adhesive tapes. This reduces waste and environmental pollution while maintaining convenience through reusable wearable products.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent uses a composite material formulation combining CaCO3, SiO2, Al2O3, Fe2O3, ochre, zinc oxide, selenium, germanium, rare earth palladium, and SiOx. This composite material provides both therapeutic functionality and safety for continuous use, replacing harmful disposable adhesives with a benign, reusable material system.
3Ease of operation
If conventional adhesive tapes are used continuously, then convenience is maintained, but therapeutic effect is almost none
Solution Approach 1:
The patent changes the fundamental parameter of therapeutic action from passive adhesive contact to active terahertz wave generation. By heating the composite material to generate terahertz waves, the system provides genuine therapeutic effect during continuous wear, unlike conventional tapes that only provide mechanical adhesion without therapeutic functionality.
