Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If manual operation is used for ultrasonic-resilience testing, then the testing process is simple, but the testing data accuracy is poor due to human factor influences
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces manual mechanical operation with an automated control system that coordinates the resiliometer and ultrasonic testing device. The control mechanism automatically controls the resiliometer to strike the test sample and synchronizes ultrasonic testing, eliminating human factor influences on measurement accuracy while maintaining operational simplicity through automation.
2Reliability
If manual operation is used for resiliometer, then the device structure is simple, but the resilience energy disperses due to material vibration or movement
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by using the fixing mechanism to secure the test sample before resilience testing begins. The rotary lifting platform positions and stabilizes the sample in advance, preventing vibration or movement during the resilience energy impact, ensuring reliable testing completion.
3Measurement precision
If ultrasonic probe is used for platy ceramic testing, then the testing method is non-destructive, but the testing waveform is unstable due to contact area and angle limitations
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies dynamics by making the ultrasonic probe position adjustable through the rotary lifting platform and coordinated control system. The system can dynamically adjust the probe's contact area and angle on the platy ceramic surface, optimizing the ultrasonic testing waveform stability while maintaining ease of operation through automated positioning.

AI summary
An ultrasonic-resilience value testing apparatus for an inorganic non-metal plate, including: a fixing mechanism, a testing mechanism and a control mechanism. The fixing mechanism is for carrying and fixing an inorganic non-metal plate to be tested; the testing mechanism is for performing ultrasonic-resilience value testing on the inorganic non-metal plate fixed on the fixing mechanism; and the control mechanism is in communication connection to the fixing mechanism and the testing mechanism, and is for controlling the fixing mechanism and the testing mechanism to run. By setting the fixing mechanism, problems such as slipping, angle deviation, vibration or movement and damage to the test sample are avoided. By setting the testing mechanism for the resilience value testing, the phenomenon that the relevant mechanical properties of the test sample cannot be accurately reflected since a resilience angle, a velocity and the like are affected by human factors, is improved.
