Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Object-affected harmful factors
If a magnetic core is added to reduce electromagnetic noise, then electromagnetic noise reduction is improved, but friction between the braided shield and magnetic core causes abrasion of the braided shield
Solution Approach 1:
A resin layer is introduced as an intermediary substance between the magnetic core and the braided shield. This resin layer prevents direct contact and friction between the magnetic core and the braided shield, eliminating the abrasion problem while maintaining the electromagnetic noise reduction function of the magnetic core.
Solution Approach 2:
The resin layer is applied in advance to the magnetic core before assembling the wire harness. This beforehand cushioning creates a protective barrier that prevents future friction and abrasion between the magnetic core and the braided shield, ensuring long-term reliability.
2Object-affected harmful factors
If the braided shield is used to reduce electromagnetic noise, then electromagnetic noise reduction is improved, but the braided shield undergoes abrasion in vibration environments
Solution Approach 1:
The resin layer serves as a mediator between the magnetic core and the braided shield, preventing direct friction and abrasion. This allows the braided shield to maintain its electromagnetic noise reduction function without undergoing abrasion in vibration environments.
3Device complexity
If the magnetic core and braided shield are in direct contact, then device complexity is reduced, but friction causes shield wire breakage in long-term use
Solution Approach 1:
The resin layer is applied beforehand to the magnetic core, creating a protective cushion that prevents future friction and shield wire breakage. This simple addition extends the duration of shield function without significantly increasing device complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The resin layer is applied in advance to the magnetic core before assembling the wire harness. This beforehand cushioning creates a protective barrier that prevents future friction and abrasion, ensuring long-term reliability.
