Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Device complexity

If partial overall value is calculated for a partial range of frequencies, then calculation complexity is reduced, but diagnostic accuracy deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecalculation complexityVSAvoiddiagnostic accuracy
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSMeasurement precision

Solution Approach 1:

The frequency range is divided into multiple sub-ranges, and partial overall values are calculated for each sub-range separately. This segmentation allows comprehensive analysis of different frequency components while maintaining manageable calculation complexity for each segment.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces a new dimension of analysis by calculating partial overall values across multiple frequency sub-ranges rather than a single overall value. This multi-dimensional approach enhances diagnostic accuracy by capturing frequency-specific vibration characteristics.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

2Measurement precision

If FFT analysis is performed on entire frequency range, then diagnostic accuracy is improved, but calculation time increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvediagnostic accuracyVSAvoidcalculation time
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The frequency spectrum obtained from FFT analysis is divided into multiple sub-ranges, and partial overall values are calculated for each sub-range. This segmentation reduces the computational burden compared to calculating a single overall value across the entire frequency range, while still maintaining comprehensive diagnostic information.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

Instead of calculating the overall value for the entire frequency range, the patent calculates partial overall values for specific sub-ranges. This partial action approach focuses computational resources on relevant frequency bands, reducing calculation time while preserving diagnostic accuracy for specific vibration components.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #16Partial or excessive action
