Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If traditional multimeter is used for two-point measurement, then measurement simplicity is maintained, but detection time increases significantly and multi-point wiring relationship cannot be determined efficiently
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the wiring detection process into multiple parallel measurement channels, each capable of independently measuring wiring relationships between different terminal pairs simultaneously. This segmentation allows the system to detect multiple wiring relationships in parallel rather than sequentially, dramatically reducing total detection time while maintaining the simplicity of each individual measurement operation.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent transitions from traditional sequential two-point measurement to a multi-dimensional parallel measurement approach. By introducing multiple measurement channels and simultaneous detection capabilities, the system adds temporal and spatial dimensions to the measurement process, enabling concurrent detection of multiple wiring relationships without compromising operational simplicity.
2Reliability
If traditional sensor is used to detect terminal connections, then detection capability is maintained, but direction of signals cannot be identified and digital docking cannot be achieved
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements feedback mechanisms in the form of directed signal transmission and response detection. The system sends test signals through controlled paths and detects responses at specific locations, creating a feedback loop that reveals signal directionality. This allows the system to not only detect connections but also determine the direction of signal flow and identify terminal relationships with directional information.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces intermediary signal processing components that act as mediators between the test signal source and the terminal under test. These intermediaries include signal generators, switches, and detectors that facilitate directed signal transmission and enable the system to extract directional information from the signal paths, thereby achieving digital docking capability.
3Measurement precision
If all terminals are measured sequentially using traditional methods, then complete wiring relationship can be determined, but the process becomes time-consuming and inefficient
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges multiple measurement operations into parallel concurrent processes. By combining multiple measurement channels and enabling simultaneous detection of different terminal pairs, the system consolidates what would traditionally be sequential measurements into a single parallel detection cycle. This merging dramatically increases detection efficiency while maintaining complete wiring relationship determination through comprehensive multi-point measurement.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent ensures continuous useful action by maintaining multiple active measurement channels that operate simultaneously without interruption. Rather than completing one measurement before starting the next, the system continues detecting multiple wiring relationships in parallel, eliminating idle time and maximizing detection throughput while preserving measurement precision through continuous multi-point monitoring.
