Abstract

In this paper, based on the evolution of the functional solution model, a number of different (function-behavior-structure) FBS functional design mapping models are presented. It has found many limitations of the existing function solving model. The reuse of knowledge and mapping of post-redesign are separated. The order of mapping is difficult to judge in the image, cannot be integrated into the innovation redesign stage. The order of mapping is blurry. And the changing environment is not expressed in the image. Therefore, this paper optimizes the design of the FBS mapping model for knowledge reuse, as well as images. An innovative design model S-FES including the above structure or behavior is proposed, which overcomes the above shortcomings and improves the efficiency of the FBS model. The practicality of the new model is illustrated by taking a shoe washing machine as an example.
