Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If existing mobilization devices are used, then specific work machines can be transported, but they are not universally applicable to different work machines

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuniversal applicability to different work machinesVSAvoidcomplexity of adapting to different machines
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The mobilization device is designed with a universal front axle unit that can be attached to different work implements through standardized connection points. The front axle unit includes universal mounting features that accommodate various implement types, while the rear axle unit provides a consistent attachment interface. This multi-functional design allows a single mobilization device to serve multiple work machines without requiring machine-specific customization.

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

Solution Approach 2:

The mobilization device is divided into separable front and rear axle units that can be independently attached and detached. The front axle unit connects to the work implement at a front connection point, while the rear axle unit connects at a rear connection point. This segmentation allows the device to be configured for different implements by simply attaching or detaching the appropriate axle units, reducing the complexity of adapting to different work machines.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Loss of time

If traditional mobilization methods are used, then work machines can be transported, but the process is not quick or easy

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetime required for mobilizationVSAvoidease of attachment and detachment
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of timeVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The front and rear axle units are pre-configured with standardized connection points, mounting brackets, and attachment mechanisms that are ready for quick installation. The connection points include pre-positioned fastening features and alignment elements that eliminate the need for complex field adjustments or custom fabrication, enabling rapid attachment and detachment of the mobilization device to different work implements.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action
