Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If the monitor is installed fixedly near an indoor ceiling or on a building wall, then the installation is stable and secure, but the portability and adjustability of image capture range are limited
Solution Approach 1:
The patent transforms the monitor from a static fixed installation to a dynamic portable device that can be moved and repositioned freely. The wireless multimedia communication device incorporates mobile communication functions and wireless charging capabilities, enabling it to operate without fixed installation while maintaining stability through its self-contained power and communication systems.
2Adaptability or versatility
If the monitor is installed fixedly, then the installation structure is simple, but the image capture range cannot be changed at will
Solution Approach 1:
The wireless multimedia communication device integrates multiple functions including mobile communication (3G/4G), Wi-Fi, wireless charging, and multimedia communication capabilities. This multi-functional design allows the device to adapt to various usage scenarios and locations without requiring complex installation structures, as it can operate independently with built-in power and communication systems.
3Reliability
If the shell module has metal material, then the antenna performance is improved by reducing shielding effect, but heat dissipation becomes more difficult
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies different material properties to different parts of the device. The shell module uses metal material in specific regions where antenna performance is critical to reduce shielding effects, while other parts of the device use materials with good heat dissipation properties. This localized material selection optimizes both antenna performance and heat dissipation without compromising either aspect.
4Ease of operation
If the wireless multimedia communication device operates continuously, then the functionality is always available, but power consumption increases
Solution Approach 1:
The wireless multimedia communication device incorporates wireless charging functionality that enables periodic recharging of the energy storage module. This allows the device to operate in cycles - using power during operation and recharging when placed on a charging base - thereby maintaining continuous functionality while managing power consumption through periodic energy replenishment rather than requiring continuous power supply.
Applied Scientific Principles
This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case
Enables portable, adjustable, and waterproof wireless communication with various communication protocols, reducing power consumption by allowing on-demand operation and forming panorama images from diverse angles, with wireless charging eliminating the need for an external power supply.
Implementation Method 1
an energy storage module installed in the shell module for storing energy, wherein when the wireless module is turned on, the wireless module operates by utilizing the energy
Implementation Method 2
because a shell module of the wireless multimedia communication device has heat emission holes or metal material, the wireless multimedia communication device dissipates heat easily when the wireless multimedia communication device operates
Implementation Method 3
when the wireless multimedia communication device is away from a charging base a predetermined distance, the charging base can execute wireless charging on an energy storage module of the wireless multimedia communication device
Implementation Method 4
because the wireless multimedia communication device has a characteristic similar to tumbler, when the shell module has metal material and the wireless multimedia communication device stands, the present invention can utilize the characteristic similar to tumbler to make an antenna installed in the shell module not be influenced by shielding effect of the shell module
