Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing display devices face challenges in on-site installation convenience, accuracy of film-type display module arrangement, unity of image output, minimization of visually unnecessary parts, strong attachment to external surfaces, and protection of connections between display modules and printed circuit boards.
Innovation Solution
A display device configuration featuring a pair of display modules with a supporting member and at least one printed circuit board (PCB) coupled to the supporting member, where the display modules are connected to opposite sides of the PCB, and the supporting member is attached to an external surface with guide surfaces to ensure accurate alignment and secure attachment.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If display modules are installed on site separately, then installation flexibility is improved, but installation convenience and accuracy deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The display device is divided into separate display modules that can be manufactured independently and installed on site separately, providing installation flexibility while maintaining ease of assembly through standardized interfaces
Solution Approach 2:
A supporting member with guide surfaces acts as an intermediary between the display modules and the external surface, facilitating accurate alignment and convenient installation without compromising precision
2Adaptability or versatility
If display modules are arranged separately on site, then installation flexibility is improved, but arrangement accuracy deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The supporting member with guide surfaces serves as a precision intermediary that ensures accurate arrangement of display modules during on-site installation, eliminating alignment errors that would otherwise occur with separate installation
Solution Approach 2:
The guide surfaces are pre-formed on the supporting member to establish precise geometric relationships before display modules are installed, ensuring accurate arrangement without requiring complex on-site measurements
3Area of stationary object
If multiple display modules are used, then image coverage is improved, but image unity deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The supporting member acts as a unifying intermediary that mechanically and optically connects multiple display modules, ensuring their relative positions remain stable and images appear unified across the entire display area
Solution Approach 2:
Multiple display modules are merged into a unified display system through the supporting member, which integrates them structurally and optically to present cohesive images across the combined display area
4Adaptability or versatility
If film-type display modules are attached to external surfaces, then installation flexibility is improved, but attachment strength deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The supporting member serves as a strength-enhancing intermediary between the film-type display modules and the external surface, providing robust mechanical attachment while allowing flexible installation configurations
Solution Approach 2:
The supporting member utilizes composite construction combining rigid structural elements with attachment mechanisms, providing strong attachment to external surfaces while maintaining flexibility in installation arrangements
5Adaptability or versatility
If display modules are connected to PCB, then functionality is improved, but connection protection deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The supporting member acts as a protective intermediary that shields the PCB connections from environmental damage and mechanical stress, ensuring reliable electrical connections while maintaining full display functionality
