Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If the volume balance method is used to detect falling depth, then the detection cost is low, but the accuracy is low and stone distribution cannot be judged
Solution Approach 1:
The gravity ball contains its own signal collecting and transmitting apparatus, allowing it to autonomously detect and report its position and surrounding conditions without requiring external complex detection equipment. This self-service capability enables accurate falling depth measurement while keeping the overall system simple.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces complex external mechanical detection systems with electronic sensors and wireless communication embedded in the gravity ball. The signal collecting and transmitting apparatus uses electronic fields rather than mechanical means to detect and communicate position data, simplifying the overall system while improving accuracy.
2Measurement precision
If the drilling detection method is used, then the detection accuracy is improved, but the cost increases and time consumption increases
Solution Approach 1:
The gravity ball is equipped with sensors and transmitting apparatus before being thrown, so that detection can begin immediately upon deployment. This preliminary preparation eliminates the need for time-consuming post-deployment setup required by drilling methods, enabling real-time monitoring of falling depth.
Solution Approach 2:
The signal collecting and transmitting apparatus operates continuously throughout the falling process, providing uninterrupted real-time data on the gravity ball's position and the stone distribution. This continuous monitoring eliminates the intermittent nature of drilling detection, significantly reducing total detection time.
3Adaptability or versatility
If the ground penetrating radar method is used, then the detection capability is improved, but the instrument cost increases and ease of operation decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The gravity ball autonomously performs detection functions through its embedded sensors and transmitting apparatus, eliminating the need for operators to manage complex external radar equipment. This self-service approach maintains high detection capability while dramatically improving ease of operation.
Solution Approach 2:
The signal collecting and transmitting apparatus serves multiple functions: detecting the gravity ball's position, monitoring stone distribution, and communicating data wirelessly. This multi-functionality replaces the need for specialized radar equipment, reducing cost and simplifying operation while maintaining versatile detection capability.
4Measurement precision
If multiple detection methods are used to improve accuracy, then the measurement precision improves, but the device complexity and cost increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple detection functions (position sensing, stone distribution monitoring, wireless communication) into a single integrated gravity ball system. This merging of functions achieves high measurement precision through multiple sensors while avoiding the complexity of coordinating separate detection systems.
Solution Approach 2:
The signal collecting and transmitting apparatus serves as a universal platform that handles multiple detection and communication tasks simultaneously. This multi-functional design achieves the accuracy benefits of multiple detection methods without requiring multiple separate systems, thereby reducing overall complexity.
