The above innovative design opportunity identification and characterization method has the following beneficial effects:

(1) Provide designers with a comprehensive method for identifying and characterizing innovative design opportunities, which includes a complete set of innovation processes including innovation opportunity analysis, problem characterization, and innovation solution formation, guiding designers to complete innovation tasks.

(2) A variety of innovation opportunity analysis tools have been designed. Each tool can complete a corresponding task, giving designers richer innovation opportunity analysis capabilities.

(3) The connection between innovation opportunities and design knowledge is established through design problem representation, which reduces the difficulty for designers to generate innovative solutions.

The above exemplary steps of the embodiments of the present application are described below respectively.

In step S101, in response to a tool selection request, at least one analysis tool is displayed on a human-computer interaction interface, wherein each of the at least one analysis tool includes introduction information of the analysis tool.

In some embodiments, the analysis tool includes: at least one of a demand analysis tool, a problem analysis tool, an opportunity analysis tool, and a resource analysis tool;

The demand analysis tool includes a demand identification tool and a demand conversion tool;

The problem analysis tools include system analysis tools, fault analysis tools, component analysis tools, and cause-and-effect analysis tools;

The opportunity analysis tools include product inspection tools, attribute association tools, ideal system tools, target mining tools, and technology forecasting tools;

Resource analysis tools include the technical forecasting tools described above.

For example, as shown in Figure 2, Figure 2 is an analysis tool diagram provided in an embodiment of the present application. The client initiates a request (the system's initial interface is an introduction to the entire system, and the specific tool interface can only be displayed after the designer initiates a request for tool selection). The computer returns a list of available analysis tools and an introduction to each tool, informing the designer what tool to select under what circumstances. The designer selects one or several of the tools (each tool is used separately) and selects one of the analysis tools.

In step S102, in response to a call request for a target analysis tool among the at least one analysis tool, a functional interface of the target analysis tool is displayed on a human-computer interaction interface, wherein the functional interface is used to input target information.

In step S103, in response to an input operation on the function interface, the input target information is displayed on the function interface.

Here, after receiving the selection request, the system calls the selected tool in the system and returns the functional interface of the relevant tool to the client. According to the input interface provided by the tool component, the relevant information of the electromechanical product is input (each tool has a different interactive interface, and the designer is required to input different types of information in the interactive interface: including market demand information, defect problem information, functional problem information and technical feature information of electromechanical products.

For example, see Figures 3 and 4. Figure 3 is the first functional interface diagram of the demand conversion tool provided by the embodiment of the present application, and Figure 4 is the second functional interface diagram of the demand conversion tool provided by the embodiment of the present application. The designer needs to input the corresponding market demand information, including the market demand name and the demand importance. The tool can automatically push the corresponding engineering feature parameters according to the market demand name (as shown in Figure 3), and automatically calculate the importance of the engineering feature according to the importance of the market demand and its correlation with the engineering feature (if there is a correlation, it is marked with a symbol, and the importance of the correlation is represented by different symbols, for example, a strong correlation is represented by a circle, and a weak correlation is represented by a triangle), (as shown in Figure 4). The designer then judges the conflicts between the engineering features, and these conflicting relationships are innovation opportunities (specifically, click the automatic characterization or conflict characterization button to display the corresponding innovation opportunities).

In step S104, the target information is converted based on a preset processing rule to obtain an innovation opportunity corresponding to the target information, wherein the innovation opportunity represents a direction in which the target product can be improved.

In some embodiments, the innovation opportunity includes at least one sub-item. After obtaining the innovation opportunity corresponding to the target information, the method further includes:

Sorting the at least one sub-item to obtain the at least one sub-item after sorting, wherein the sorting is based on at least one of importance, implementation difficulty, time, cost, and efficiency;

The at least one sorted sub-item is displayed so that the user can select a corresponding sub-item as the innovation opportunity based on the at least one sorted sub-item.

In some embodiments, the converting and processing the target information based on a preset processing rule to obtain the innovation opportunity corresponding to the target information includes:

Matching the target information with a preset engineering feature library in terms of correlation, and returning engineering features whose correlation is greater than a correlation threshold;

The innovation opportunity corresponding to the target information is obtained based on the engineering features.

For example, the corresponding analysis tool converts the input information into relevant innovation opportunities based on preset information conversion methods, importance algorithms and ranking algorithms, and calculates the importance of each innovation opportunity and ranks them.

The tool component converts input information into relevant innovation opportunities based on the designed information conversion method, importance algorithm and ranking algorithm, and calculates the importance of each innovation opportunity and ranks it.

Taking the requirement conversion tool as an example, there are improvements in the information conversion method, which shows that a quick conversion method of requirement information-engineering features has been built.

After the designer inputs the requirement information, the computer matches the requirement information with the constructed engineering feature library and automatically pushes the appropriate engineering features and relevance to the designer.

For example, since the subway is built under urban buildings, its vibration and noise will have a great impact on people's lives and work. The track of the floating slab track can play a good role in shock absorption and noise reduction, and to a certain extent eliminate the impact of the subway passing by. As a key part of the floating slab track, the floating slab isolator plays a key role in the vibration reduction performance of the floating slab track and is a key structure for design and improvement.

During the design process, there are the requirements shown in Table 1:

Table 1

After the designer inputs the requirement information in Table 1 into the computer, the computer matches the requirement information and pushes the relevant engineering feature parameters to the designer as shown in Table 2:

Table 2

After the computer calculates the importance of all the output innovation opportunities, it sorts them according to the importance and displays them all to the designer. The designer can choose some of the innovation opportunities for subsequent operations based on their importance and his own judgment.

In step S105, a design problem corresponding to the innovation opportunity is obtained based on the innovation opportunity, and a corresponding solution is pushed for the design problem.

In some embodiments, the design problem includes a default design problem and a secondary characterization problem;

The pushing of corresponding solutions for the design problems includes:

Determining the default design problem through the design problem, wherein the default design problem is a problem that can be directly obtained from the design problem;

Determine whether there is a secondary representation problem in the default design problem, and if so, determine the secondary representation problem, and search for a corresponding first knowledge item based on the secondary representation problem, and push a corresponding first solution through the first knowledge item;

If not, search for a corresponding second knowledge item based on the default design problem, and push a corresponding second solution through the second knowledge item.

In some embodiments, the secondary characterization problem includes at least one of a conflict problem, a parameter problem, and a functional problem. The conflict problem represents how to solve the problem that improving a first parameter will deteriorate a second parameter. The parameter problem represents how to solve the problem by changing the parameter. The functional problem represents how to increase or decrease related functions in the product.

The searching for the corresponding first knowledge item based on the secondary representation problem includes:

When the secondary characterization problem is the conflict problem, selecting and marking the corresponding first parameter and the second parameter, thereby determining the conflict problem, and searching for the corresponding first knowledge item based on the conflict problem;

Alternatively, the first knowledge item corresponding to the conflicting question is gradually obtained in the form of questions and answers;

When the secondary characterization problem is the parameter problem, gradually obtaining the first knowledge item corresponding to the parameter problem in the form of questions and answers;

When the secondary representation problem is the functional problem, the corresponding function is selected through a preset functional plug-in to determine the functional problem, and the corresponding first knowledge item is searched based on the functional problem, wherein the functional plug-in includes a functional verb and a functional noun.

Here, since each analysis tool outputs different innovation opportunities, each tool has its own default conversion method for innovation opportunities-design problems, and the default design problem forms are different at this time. Then the computer also provides a representation process for three standard problems, including functional problems, conflict problems, and parameter problems, which can convert different forms of default design problems into three standard types of problems. Examples are as follows:

The first category is default design problems, which can generally be obtained directly.

1. Default design problem.

(1) The innovation opportunities (partial) corresponding to the demand conversion tools are shown in Table 3:

table 3

The corresponding default design questions are:

1. How to eliminate the conflict between maximum vibration and adaptability?

2. How to eliminate the conflict between maximum vibration and limit function?

3. How to eliminate the conflict between maximum vibration and manufacturability?

4. How to eliminate the conflict between maximum noise and manufacturability?

(2) The innovation opportunities (partial) output by the system analysis tool are shown in Table 4:

Table 4

The corresponding default design questions are:

1. How to prevent "steel springs from easily deviating left and right"?

2. How to prevent the "stiffness of the isolator cannot change dynamically"?

3. How to prevent "steel springs absorbing less vibration energy"?

4. How to prevent "inability to achieve multi-layer vibration reduction"?

2. Secondary representation problems (this type of problem often cannot be solved directly).

(1) Conflict issues (e.g., the tool is a conflict matrix).

Selection Guidance: When you want to improve a parameter in the system, but improving this parameter will cause another parameter to decrease, you can define the problem as a conflict problem.

(3) Functional issues

The computer has pre-set functional forms that may exist during the use of electromechanical products. Functional problems are composed of functional verbs + functional nouns.

(3.1) Functional verbs (part):

As shown in Figure 6, functional nouns may include substances, fields, and signals. The secondary directory of substances includes gases, liquids, solids, chemical compounds, mixtures, plasmas, and the like.

Finally, the computer automatically pushes relevant design knowledge based on the selected design problem and obtains a design solution based on this knowledge. (The computer searches the design problem, obtains multiple relevant knowledge items and design cases, sorts them according to the degree of matching, and recommends them to the designer. The designer browses the relevant knowledge or cases and then conducts innovative design to obtain a solution.)

In some embodiments, the method further comprises:

In response to the scoring operation for the solution, scoring at least one scoring item through a preset scoring interface;

Obtaining a comprehensive score of the solution based on the score of the at least one scoring item;

The solution with a comprehensive score greater than the score threshold is taken as the first solution, and the solution with a comprehensive score less than or equal to the score threshold is taken as the second solution;

The probability of pushing the content related to the first solution is increased, and the probability of pushing the content related to the second solution is reduced.

Here, after obtaining the corresponding solution, the solution can be scored, and the user can make corresponding evaluations based on the actual application situation, and the obtained solution can be measured according to the score, so that the machine can learn related content and increase the probability of pushing high-quality content.
