Adjustable Wall Mount Structure for Flat-Panel Display Height
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing wall mounting solutions for flat-panel displays lack adjustable mounting height and have complex designs that increase manufacturing costs.
Innovation Solution
A wall mounting apparatus with a base and detachable wall mounting pieces and racks, allowing for multiple adjustable mounting heights through a unique through-hole and flange configuration, enabling flexible adjustment and simplified design.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a wall rack and wall mounting piece structure is used to mount the display on the wall, then the display can be securely mounted, but the mounting height cannot be adjusted and the design becomes complex
Solution Approach 1:
The wall mounting apparatus is divided into separate modular components: a base unit with positioning holes and detachable wall mounting pieces. Each positioning hole can independently accept a wall mounting piece, allowing the wall rack to be mounted at different height combinations. This segmentation enables height adjustment while keeping each individual component simple in design.
Solution Approach 2:
The wall mounting pieces are designed to be detachably connected to the base, allowing dynamic reconfiguration of the mounting height. Users can remove and reposition wall mounting pieces between different positioning holes to adjust the display height according to different needs, transforming a static mounting structure into a dynamic, adjustable system.
2Reliability
If a wall rack with multiple screw holes is used to secure the display, then the mounting is secure, but the screw heads become visible and affect aesthetics
Solution Approach 1:
The wall mounting pieces are designed with flanges that extend beyond the wall rack mounting surface. These flanges cover the screw heads and mounting holes from the front view, effectively extracting the visible fastening elements from the aesthetic field while maintaining their structural function for secure mounting.
Solution Approach 2:
The flange structure acts as an intermediary element between the wall rack and the wall mounting pieces. It provides a cosmetic cover that hides the fastening hardware while still allowing the mechanical connection to function properly, thus mediating between aesthetic requirements and mounting security.
3Ease of operation
If a fixed wall mounting piece is used, then the structure is simple, but the mounting height cannot be adjusted after installation
Solution Approach 1:
The base unit with multiple positioning holes serves multiple functions: it provides both structural support and height adjustment capability. The same base can accommodate wall mounting pieces at different positions and combinations, making it a universal mounting solution for various display heights without requiring multiple different base designs, thus controlling manufacturing costs.
Solution Approach 2:
The system allows adjustment of the mounting height parameter by changing the position of wall mounting pieces on the base. Instead of manufacturing different fixed-height mounting structures, the same base structure is used with variable positioning, achieving height adjustment through parameter change rather than structural redesign.
