Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional display devices, such as liquid crystal televisions, are fixedly mounted, leading to restricted viewing angles and distances, resulting in a 'dead zone' where optimal viewing is not possible, especially in indoor environments.

Innovation Solution

A display device base with a first horizontal displacement mechanism, a second horizontal displacement mechanism, and a rotation mechanism, equipped with guiding rails, sliding blocks, and driving mechanisms, allows the display device to move in two horizontal directions and rotate, ensuring it remains facing the user by using sensors to collect location information.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of manufacture

If the display device is fixedly mounted on the wall, then the installation is simple and convenient, but the viewing range and angle are restricted, creating dead zones

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinstallation simplicityVSAvoidviewing range
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The display device base incorporates horizontal displacement mechanisms and rotation mechanisms that enable the display device to dynamically adjust its position and orientation. The first and second sliding blocks can move along guiding rails in horizontal directions, and the rotation mechanism allows angular adjustment, transforming the fixed mounting into a dynamic positioning system that adapts to different viewing positions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The base structure is segmented into multiple independent displacement and rotation mechanisms. The first horizontal displacement mechanism and second horizontal displacement mechanism operate independently, allowing the display device to achieve complex positioning through coordinated movement of separate modules, thereby expanding viewing coverage while maintaining installation simplicity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Device complexity

If the display device is fixedly mounted, then the structure is simple, but the viewing angle is limited to a specific range

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvestructure simplicityVSAvoidviewing angle range
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The base includes rotation mechanisms with rotating shafts that enable the display device to rotate around vertical axes, and sliding mechanisms that allow horizontal movement. These dynamic components add minimal structural complexity while dramatically expanding the viewing angle range from a fixed direction to multiple directions covering large angular ranges.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The displacement and rotation mechanisms are nested within the base structure. The first sliding block moves along the first guiding rail, the second sliding block moves along the second guiding rail, and the rotation mechanism is integrated within the base assembly, creating a compact nested structure that maintains simplicity while enabling multi-degree-of-freedom movement.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #7Nested doll (Nesting)

3Ease of operation

If the display device is fixedly mounted, then the mounting method is convenient, but there are dead zones where optimal viewing is not possible

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemounting convenienceVSAvoidviewing coverage
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The base incorporates sensors that automatically detect the user's position and the controller automatically controls the displacement and rotation mechanisms to adjust the display device's orientation towards the user. This self-service functionality eliminates the need for manual positioning while expanding viewing coverage to eliminate dead zones.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The automatic adjustment system dynamically repositions the display device based on real-time sensor feedback. The first and second sliding blocks move horizontally, and the rotation mechanism adjusts the viewing angle automatically, transforming the static fixed mounting into a dynamic system that actively adapts to user position, thereby eliminating dead zones while maintaining ease of operation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics
