Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If wheel assembly is added to enable moving, then mobility is improved, but vibration increases

Engineering Contradiction:
ImprovemobilityVSAvoidvibration
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSObject-generated harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent converts the harmful vibration generated by wheel movement into a beneficial feature by incorporating vibration-absorbing materials and damping structures within the base and wheel assembly. The kinetic energy from vibration is dissipated through friction and material damping, transforming the harmful effect into heat energy that stabilizes the display device during and after movement.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #22Blessing in disguise (Convert harm into benefit)

2Stability of the object's composition

If weight is added to improve standing stability, then standing stability is improved, but ease of moving deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvestanding stabilityVSAvoidease of moving
Core Design Contradiction:
Stability of the object's compositionVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies segmentation by dividing the weight into multiple modular components distributed throughout the base structure and wheel assembly. This segmented weight distribution lowers the center of gravity for improved stability while allowing individual weight modules to be adjusted or removed to optimize mobility characteristics, resolving the contradiction between standing stability and ease of moving.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation
