Movable Display Cover Assembly With Rotator to Prevent Bending
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing display devices face issues with cover bending, friction, noise, and operability due to contact between the cover and rotator, which affects the functionality and durability of the display panel.
Innovation Solution
A display device design incorporating a frame, cover assembly, bar, and rotator system that allows the cover to move relative to the frame, minimizing friction and noise while preventing bending, and improving operability.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If the cover assembly is movably coupled to the frame to enable opening and closing, then the operability is improved, but the cover may bend during movement
Solution Approach 1:
The rotator acts as an intermediary component between the cover assembly and the bar. It transfers the movement force from the cover to the bar while preventing direct contact that would cause bending. The rotator's cylindrical shape allows smooth rotational movement, enabling the cover to open and close without bending deformations.
2Stability of the object's composition
If the cover assembly contacts the rotator to prevent bending, then the structural stability is improved, but friction and noise increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces direct sliding contact with rotational contact. Instead of the cover sliding against the bar (which creates high friction and noise), the cover rotates the rotator, which then moves along the bar. This substitution of mechanical interaction mode significantly reduces friction and noise while maintaining the bending prevention function.
3Strength
If the bar is fixed to the frame to provide structural support, then the strength is improved, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The bar serves multiple functions: it provides structural support to prevent cover bending, acts as a guide for the rotator's movement, and serves as a mounting structure for the rotator. By making the bar multi-functional, the patent avoids adding separate components for each function, thereby maintaining simplicity while achieving strength and support.
