[0027] In order to provide a further understanding of the purpose, structure, features, and functions of the present invention, the present invention is described in detail below with reference to the embodiments.

[0028] Certain terms are used throughout the specification and claims to refer to specific components. Those skilled in the art will understand that manufacturers may use different terms to refer to the same component. This specification and claims do not distinguish components by name, but rather by their functional differences. Throughout the specification and claims, the term "including" is open-ended and should be interpreted as meaning "including, but not limited to."

[0029] See also Figures 1 to 2 ,in, Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the display device and its packaging system provided by the utility model; for easy observation, Figure 2The figure is a schematic structural diagram of a display device and its packaging system, showing a partially cutaway back housing and display panel. The display device 10 includes a display panel 10a, a back housing 10b, and a strap fastener 11. The display panel 10a is located on opposite sides of the back housing 10b. In this embodiment, the display panel 10a is a curved display panel 10a. The strap fastener 11 is retractably disposed inside the back housing 10b. The back housing 10b includes a VESA plate mounting slot 12, into which a VESA plate 141 can be mounted, for example, by screws, snap-fit ​​connections, or the like. Preferably, the display device 10 also includes a bracket 14 for supporting the back housing 10b. In this embodiment, the VESA plate 141 is part of the bracket 14. In other embodiments, the VESA plate can be a separate accessory, and the bracket can be mounted to the back housing 10b by connecting to the VESA plate. The present invention is not limited thereto.

[0030] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a first opening H1 and a second opening H2 are formed in the VESA board mounting slot 12, wherein the first opening H1 and the second opening H2 can be independent of each other or can be interconnected. In a preferred embodiment, the first opening H1 and the second opening H2 are opened on the bottom wall 12b of the VESA board mounting slot 12, and the first opening H1 and the second opening H2 are also located at the connection between the side wall and the bottom wall 12b of the VESA board mounting slot 12. Preferably, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the second opening H2 may also extend from the bottom wall 12 b to the side wall of the VESA board mounting slot 12 , but the actual application is not limited thereto.

[0031] The strap fixing member 11 includes a first protrusion 111 and a second protrusion 112. Figure 4 As shown, the strap fastener 11 is mounted on the inner side of the bottom wall 12b of the VESA plate mounting slot 12, and a first protrusion 111 is retractably positioned corresponding to the first opening H1. The first protrusion 111 is configured to be securely engaged with the end opening 22h of the external strap 22, which is larger than the first protrusion 111. The second protrusion 112 is retractably positioned corresponding to the second opening H2, so as to be exposed from the VESA plate mounting slot 12 through the second opening H2. The first and second protrusions 111, 112 are interlocked. In other words, the movement of the second protrusion 112 drives the movement of the first protrusion 111, which can be achieved through a linkage mechanism. In a preferred embodiment, the second protrusion 112 is fixed relative to the first protrusion 111. Furthermore, the second protrusion 112 and the first protrusion 111 are integrally formed.

[0032] The shape and size of the VESA plate match those of the VESA plate mounting slot. When the VESA plate 141 is not installed, the second protrusion 112 is exposed from the second opening H2, i.e., within the VESA plate mounting slot 12. The first protrusion 111 is located within the first opening H1, intersecting the edge of the first opening H1 along the y-direction. The end of the external strap 22 extends through the first opening H1 and moves toward the free end of the first protrusion 111 until the opening 22h fits within the first protrusion 111. This secures the display device 10 within the cushioning packaging material, preventing unintended separation.

[0033] When the VESA plate 141 is installed in the VESA plate mounting slot 12, the VESA plate 141 forces the second protrusion 112 to retract from the second opening H2. This retraction of the second protrusion 112 from the second opening H2 also moves the first protrusion 111, thereby disengaging the end of the external strap 22, which is secured to the first protrusion 111, from the first protrusion 111. Specifically, the first protrusion 111 withdraws in the y-direction or its opposite direction, and the edge of the first opening H1 drives the external strap 22, causing the end opening 22h of the external strap 22 to disengage from the first protrusion 111 and subsequently exit from the first opening H1, thereby releasing the lock on the external strap 22.

[0034] It should be noted that when viewed from the back of the display device 10, the first protrusion 111 is obscured by the bottom wall 12b and cannot be directly seen. The end of the external strap 22 is inserted through the first opening H1 to engage with the first protrusion 111, making it difficult for the user to directly operate the first protrusion 111 to release the engagement with the external strap 22. As such, the external strap 22 automatically releases after the VESA board 141 is installed in the VESA board mounting slot 12, thereby releasing the external strap 22 from securing the display device 10 to the cushioning member 21 in the packaging system. This intuitively guides the user in removing the cushioning member 21 after installing the bracket 14.

[0035] In a preferred embodiment, if Figures 1 to 4 As shown, there can be two second protrusions 112, located on either side of the first protrusion 111. Correspondingly, two second openings H2 are formed in the VESA board mounting slot 12. When the VESA board 141 is installed in the VESA board mounting slot 12, the two second protrusions 112 are simultaneously retracted. This stabilizes the movement of the first protrusion 111.

[0036] In a preferred embodiment, at least one guide groove 113 is formed on the fixing body 11s, and the extension direction of the guide groove 113 is parallel to the moving direction of the strap fixing member 11. At least one protruding column 13 is correspondingly provided on the back shell 10b, and the at least one protruding column 13 is slidably inserted into the at least one guide groove 113, so that the strap fixing member 11 moves along the extension direction of the guide groove 113. Figure 2 and Figure 4 y-direction. For example, the boss 13 can be a column integrally formed with the back shell 10b. Alternatively, at least one corresponding stud 13 can be slidably disposed in the at least one guide slot 113, and the at least one stud 13 is also respectively locked to the back shell 10b, but the present invention is not limited to this. In other embodiments, the number of bosses 13 can also be one, and the boss 13 can also be a prism 13, and its size matches the guide slot 113 to further define the movement direction of the first protrusion 111.

[0037] In a preferred embodiment, the display device 10 further includes at least one elastic member 114, which is used to drive the second protrusion 112 to expose the second opening H2 by its elastic force when the VESA plate 141 is not installed. Figures 3 and 4 As shown, the strap fastener 11 also includes a fastener body 11s, with a first protrusion 111 and a second protrusion 112 respectively fixed to corresponding positions of the fastener body 11s. The at least one elastic member 114 is disposed between the fastener body 11s and the back housing 10b. When the second protrusion 112 is not subjected to external force (e.g., pressure from a VESA plate), the elastic member 114 provides elastic force in the opposite direction along the y-direction to keep the first protrusion 111 stably fixed to the end of the external strap 22. In some embodiments, a guide rod may be provided on the fastener body 11s, and the elastic member 114 may be sleeved on the guide rod to further guide the installation and scaling direction of the elastic member 114. Please refer to Figure 4A connecting portion 10c is protruded from a corresponding position on the back shell 10b, and an elastic member 114 is disposed between the fixing member body 11s and the connecting portion 10c. The connecting portion 10c may be integrally formed with the back shell 10b, or may be fixed to the back shell 10b by screwing, welding, or the like, but the actual application is not limited thereto. In some embodiments, there are two elastic members 114, which are distributed on both sides of the first protrusion 111; in other embodiments, there may be multiple elastic members 114, but the actual application is not limited thereto. In this way, when the external strap 22 is inserted into the first opening H1, the external strap 22 can push the first protrusion 111 in the y direction, compressing the elastic member 114; after the opening 22h is further inserted and aligned with the first protrusion 111, the elastic member 114 rebounds and, through its elastic force, pushes the first protrusion 111 in the opposite direction of the y direction, causing the first protrusion 111 to be engaged with the opening 22h. When the VESA plate 141 is installed in the VESA plate mounting slot 12, the VESA plate 141 pushes the second protrusion 112 in the y-direction, and the first protrusion 111 also moves in the y-direction. After the first protrusion 111 moves a certain distance, the end opening 22h of the external strap 22 disengages from the first protrusion 111 and is withdrawn from the VESA plate mounting slot 12. The surface 111L of the first protrusion 111 on the z-direction side is tilted and contracted at the end to facilitate pushing the first protrusion 111 in the y-direction when the external strap 22 is inserted. The surface of the first protrusion 111 on the opposite side of the z-direction contracts to facilitate the removal of the end opening 22h of the external strap 22 from the first protrusion 111 when the first protrusion 111 is moved into position in the y-direction by the second protrusion 112. In this embodiment, the first and second protrusions 111, 112 are relatively fixed and move in the same direction. Preferably, the second protrusion 112 has a second guide ramp 112L that retracts laterally when the VESA plate 141 is installed and pressed downward. In other embodiments, the first and second protrusions 111, 112 are interlocked, with the movement of the second protrusion 112 driving the first protrusion 111 in the y-direction or its opposite direction. The movement direction of the second protrusion 112 can be the same as or different from that of the first protrusion 111. For example, the second protrusion 112 can move in the z-direction or its opposite direction and retract in the opposite direction of the z-direction when the VESA plate is installed and pressed downward. However, the present invention is not limited to this embodiment. The following example uses the first and second protrusions 111, 112, as an example.

[0038] Preferably, the second protrusion 112 may also be provided with a snap-fitting groove (not shown) adjacent to and exposed on the bottom wall 12b of the VESA board mounting slot 12. This snap-fitting groove mates with the VESA board 141. During the downward installation of the VESA board 141, the second guide ramp 112L of the second protrusion 112 abuts the VESA board 141 and moves in the y-direction until the VESA board 141 bottoms out and abuts the bottom wall 12b of the VESA board mounting slot 12. The snap-fitting groove aligns with the edge of the VESA board 141 and rebounds to engage the edge. In other words, the second protrusion 112 also serves to snap-fit ​​and secure the VESA board 141. A third opening H3 may also be defined in the back housing 10b. The third opening H3 may be positioned corresponding to the portion of the outer housing 10b where the external strap 22 passes around. A shifting block 115 may also be fixed to the fixing body 11s, exposed through the third opening H3. For ease of understanding, the third opening H3 and the shift block 115 are Figure 3 After the external strap 22 is unlocked, the lever 115 is exposed. The user can operate the lever 115 to move the strap fastener 11 in the y-direction, thereby releasing the second protrusion 112 from securing the VESA plate 141, thereby removing the bracket 14 and facilitating replacement of the bracket 14. However, when the external strap 22 secures the display device 10 and the cushioning member 21, the lever is obscured by the external strap 22, preventing the user from operating the lever to loosen the external strap 22.

[0039] In a preferred embodiment, the display device 10 further includes a pair of strap fixing members 11, which are respectively located at two opposite sides of the VESA plate mounting slot 12. Figures 3 and 4 The first protrusions 111 of the pair of strap fixing members 11 are respectively used to clamp and fix the openings 22h at the two opposite ends of the external strap 22. In this embodiment, the strap fixing members 11 are respectively arranged on both sides of the display device 10 along the y direction; in other embodiments, the strap fixing members 11 can also be arranged on both sides of the display device 10 relative to the x direction, but the actual application is not limited to this. It should be noted that the above description of the direction of the strap fixing member 11 is based on Figures 3 and 4 Taking the upper side strap fixing member 11 in the y direction as an example, Figures 3 and 4 The moving direction of the lower side strap fixing part 11 not shown in the figure should be opposite to it.

[0040] The present invention also provides a display device packaging system, comprising a cushioning member 21, an external strap 22, and the display device 20 described above. The cushioning member 21 corresponds to the shape of the curved display panel 10a and is used to provide cushioning for the curved display panel 10a. Specifically, the cushioning member 21 has a curved surface and a convex arch shape, providing sufficient load-bearing capacity for the curved display panel 10a and preventing deformation or damage. The cushioning member 21 is made of materials such as foam or corrugated paper. At least one end of the external strap 22 has an opening 22h. In this embodiment, the external strap 22 passes through the cushioning member 21 so that the opening 22h at its end is secured to the strap fastener 11 of the back housing 10b. This allows the display device 10 to remain stably secured to the cushioning member 21 even after the packaging material on the corresponding side of the back housing 10b is removed. In other embodiments, the external strap 22 may be passed through the cushioning member 21 so that the opening 22h at its end is secured to the strap fastener 11 of the back housing 10b. This is not a limitation of the present invention. The external strap 22 is made of a flexible material such as Mylar or nylon, but its practical application is not limited to this. Furthermore, the ends of the external strap 22 may be reinforced with a hard material to facilitate insertion and locking, and removal when unlocked.

[0041] In summary, embodiments of the present invention provide a display device and packaging system thereof. The display device includes a back housing and a strap fastener, which is retractably mounted on the inner side of the back housing. The back housing includes a VESA plate mounting slot, which is formed with a first opening and a second opening. The strap fastener includes a first protrusion and a second protrusion. The first protrusion is retractably mounted in the first opening and is used to engage and secure an external strap. The second protrusion is retractably mounted in the second opening, so as to be exposed from the second opening to the VESA plate mounting slot. The first and second protrusions are interlockingly mounted. When the VESA plate is not mounted, the second protrusion is exposed from the second opening, while the first protrusion is located within the first opening. The end of the external strap extends through the first opening and moves toward the free end of the first protrusion until the opening at the end of the external strap fits into the first protrusion, thereby securing the display device in the cushioning packaging material. When the VESA plate is installed in the VESA plate mounting slot, the VESA plate drives the second protrusion to retract from the second opening, thereby driving the first protrusion to move, thereby disengaging the external strap from the first protrusion, guiding the user to hold the bracket to take out the display device for use after the VESA plate is installed.

[0042] The present invention has been described with reference to the above embodiments. However, these embodiments are merely exemplary embodiments of the present invention. It should be noted that the disclosed embodiments do not limit the scope of the present invention.
