Solution Overview

Problem

Existing display devices, particularly those with transparent panels, lack a robust and adjustable bracket assembly for secure mounting and positioning, which can lead to instability and potential damage from external forces.

Innovation Solution

A bracket assembly comprising a front and rear bracket system with movable hooks and adjustable coupling mechanisms, allowing fine adjustment of the display device's position and secure attachment to a wall, incorporating heat dissipation features.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If a fixed bracket assembly is used to mount the display device, then the structure is simple and easy to manufacture, but the display device cannot be adjusted for positioning and leveling

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveadjustability of display device positionVSAvoidcomplexity of bracket assembly structure
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The bracket assembly incorporates movable hooks that can slide along the rear bracket's vertical plate, transforming a static fixed mounting structure into a dynamic adjustable system. This allows the display device to be positioned at different heights and angles while maintaining structural simplicity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The bracket assembly is divided into separate functional components: a front bracket for supporting the display device, a rear bracket for wall mounting, and movable hooks for connection. This segmentation allows each component to be optimized independently while providing overall adjustability

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Reliability

If a secure fixed mounting structure is used, then the display device is stable and resistant to external forces, but fine adjustment of position and leveling is difficult

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvestability of display device mountingVSAvoidease of fine adjustment
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The movable hooks can be freely positioned along the rear bracket before being locked into place, enabling fine adjustments for leveling and positioning. Once adjusted, the hooks secure the display device firmly, providing both adjustability and stability

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The bracket assembly allows users to easily adjust the display device position themselves without requiring special tools or complex mechanisms. The movable hooks can be manually positioned and locked by the user, enabling self-service installation and adjustment

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

3Strength

If a simple bracket structure is used, then the manufacturing cost is low and the structure is easy to produce, but the bracket cannot provide adequate support against external forces like tipping

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresistance to external forcesVSAvoidease of manufacturing bracket assembly
Core Design Contradiction:
StrengthVSEase of manufacture

Solution Approach 1:

The bracket is divided into front and rear brackets with distinct functions. The rear bracket provides the primary structural strength for wall mounting and resisting external forces, while the front bracket supports the display device. This segmentation allows each part to be manufactured simply while the combination provides adequate strength

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The movable hooks provide adaptive support that can accommodate different display device weights and configurations. The hooks can be positioned to optimize the leverage and support distribution, enhancing the bracket's resistance to tipping forces without requiring a more complex overall structure

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

4Illumination intensity

If the bracket assembly is designed for transparent display devices, then the aesthetic appearance is improved by maintaining transparency, but the bracket components may be more difficult to detect and align

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetransparency of display deviceVSAvoiddetectability of bracket components
Core Design Contradiction:
Illumination intensityVSDifficulty of detecting and measuring

Solution Approach 1:

The bracket components are segmented into distinct modular parts that can be independently positioned and aligned. The front bracket, rear bracket, and movable hooks can be separately installed, making it easier to detect and align each component during assembly even with transparent displays

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The movable hooks serve as intermediary elements that connect the front and rear brackets. These hooks provide visible reference points and alignment features that facilitate detection and proper positioning of the bracket components relative to each other

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)
