Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Strength

If a flat heat dissipation layer is used, then the structure is simple, but the contact surface area is small and adhesive force is weak

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveadhesive forceVSAvoidstructure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
StrengthVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The heat dissipation layer is designed with an uneven pattern including protrusions and recesses instead of a flat surface. This curvature/unevenness increases the contact surface area between the heat dissipation layer and soft magnetic layer, thereby improving adhesive force and heat dissipation efficiency without adding complex separate components

Inventive Principle:
Principle #14Spheroidality (Curvature)

2Productivity

If the soft magnetic layer is placed close to the battery, then the structure is compact, but electromagnetic interference occurs

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecharging efficiencyVSAvoidelectromagnetic interference
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The heat dissipation layer with uneven pattern serves as an intermediary barrier between the soft magnetic layer and the battery. This intermediate structure suppresses electromagnetic interference while maintaining the compact design and high charging efficiency through improved magnetic coupling

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Temperature

If a simple flat structure is used, then manufacturing is easy, but heat dissipation efficiency is low

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveheat dissipation efficiencyVSAvoidmanufacturing complexity
Core Design Contradiction:

Solution Approach 1:

The uneven pattern with protrusions and recesses is formed directly on the heat dissipation layer, increasing the surface area for heat dissipation. This structural modification can be integrated into the existing manufacturing process without requiring additional complex steps or components

Inventive Principle:
Principle #14Spheroidality (Curvature)
