示意圖
Also known as schematic diagram, schematic drawing
A schematic, or schematic diagram, is a designed representation of the elements of a system using abstract, graphic symbols rather than realistic pictures. A schematic usually omits all details that are not relevant to the key information the schematic is intended to convey, and may include oversimplified elements in order to make this essential meaning easier to grasp, as well as additional organization of the information.

示意图（schematic）又称原理图（schematic diagram），是用抽象的图形符号而非写实的图片表示系统、设备的及其组件相互关系的简图（图解）。 示意图通常省略所有与关键信息无关的细节，为了使本质意义易于理解，它可能过度简化某些元素。 例如，地铁线路图用一个点表示地铁站，这个点看起来并不像真正的地铁站。这是为了让乘客理解关键信息，不被多余的视觉细节干扰。化学过程的示意图用符号表示系统中容器、管、阀、泵等设备，而不去细致描绘它们，这样才突出了每个元素的功能与其间的联系。电路图中符号的排布与电路实际的样子并不相似，却能表现电路的工作原理。
