Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Large-sized display products face challenges in facilitating assembly and maintenance due to complex component interactions and the need for precise alignment and attachment methods.
Innovation Solution
The electronic apparatus incorporates a detachable connector system with a bezel assembly and adaptors that utilize protrusions and clamping portions to securely attach the display module to the base, allowing for easy assembly and disassembly without the need for screws, along with a placement portion for an auxiliary display module that enhances user experience.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Strength
If traditional screw-based attachment methods are used, then the connection strength between display module and base is improved, but the assembly complexity and maintenance difficulty increase
Solution Approach 1:
The attachment system is segmented into separate components: a detachable connector with clamping portions, adaptors with protrusions, and mounting structures. This allows the display module to be divided into separable parts that can be independently assembled and disassembled without requiring complete disassembly of the entire device, thereby reducing assembly complexity while maintaining connection strength.
Solution Approach 2:
A detachable connector serves as an intermediary component between the display module and the base. This mediator includes clamping portions that engage with protrusions on adaptors, providing a reliable mechanical connection without requiring direct screw-fastening between the display module and base, thus simplifying the overall assembly process.
2Stability of the object's composition
If screw-based attachment methods are used, then the structural stability is improved, but the ease of assembly and maintenance deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The attachment system transitions from a static, permanent screw-based connection to a dynamic, reversible detachable connector system. The clamping portions can be engaged and disengaged through simple movements, allowing the display module to be quickly assembled and disassembled while maintaining structural stability during operation. The inclined plates provide a mechanical advantage that enables easy engagement with minimal force.
Solution Approach 2:
The detachable connector design allows for self-aligning and self-latching functionality. The inclined plates guide the protrusions into the clamping portions during assembly, and the clamping portions automatically secure the connection without requiring precise manual alignment or additional fastening operations, thereby improving ease of assembly while maintaining structural stability.
3Adaptability or versatility
If complex component interactions are present, then the functionality is improved, but the difficulty of detection and measurement increases
Solution Approach 1:
While the patent does not explicitly use color indicators, the design principles suggest the use of visual features (such as aligned edges, visible protrusions, and clamping portion positions) that provide clear feedback on assembly status. These visual cues enable easy detection of proper alignment and connection state without requiring complex measurement tools or procedures.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces complex mechanical alignment systems with simpler geometric features. The protrusions and clamping portions are designed with specific geometries that naturally guide alignment during assembly, eliminating the need for precision measurement tools or complex adjustment mechanisms. The mounting rod and mounting pipe provide straightforward vertical alignment references.
