Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If a sun visor eye wear holder is designed with multiple pockets and straps to securely store domestic articles, then the storage capacity and security are improved, but the device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvestorage securityVSAvoidstructure complexity

Core Design Contradiction:

ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The holder is divided into multiple pockets (first pocket, second pocket, third pocket) that can be independently configured, allowing secure storage of multiple different articles while maintaining a relatively simple overall structure

Inventive Principle:

Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The holder serves multiple functions: storing eyeglasses, sunglasses, and other domestic articles simultaneously through its multiple pockets, while the adjustable straps provide universal attachment to various sun visor configurations

Inventive Principle:

Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

2Reliability

If the holder uses multiple straps forming loops to attach to the sun visor, then the attachment reliability is improved, but the ease of operation deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveattachment reliabilityVSAvoidinstallation ease

Core Design Contradiction:

ReliabilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The straps are designed as adjustable loops that can be easily configured and tightened, providing reliable attachment while maintaining ease of installation and removal through dynamic adjustment rather than fixed rigid connections

Inventive Principle:

Principle #15Dynamics

3Adaptability or versatility

If the holder is designed with a panel and multiple pockets for storing various domestic articles, then the versatility is improved, but the device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvestorage versatilityVSAvoidcomponent quantity

Core Design Contradiction:

Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

Inventive Principle:

Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

Multiple functional elements (pockets, straps, panel) are merged into a single integrated holder unit that attaches to the sun visor, providing versatile storage capabilities without requiring multiple separate devices

Inventive Principle:

Principle #5Merging (Combining)
