Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of manufacture
If a plate is used to couple PCB and back cover to frame, then coupling is achieved, but weight and cost increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts and eliminates the coupling plate from the assembly, replacing it with pins that directly couple the back cover and PCB to the frame. This removal of the intermediate component reduces weight while maintaining coupling functionality through the pin structure that protrudes from the frame and secures components directly.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent merges the coupling function into the frame structure itself by integrating pins directly into the frame body. Instead of using a separate coupling plate, the frame now performs both structural support and component coupling functions through its integrated pin structure, reducing the number of parts and overall weight.

3Ease of manufacture
If traditional coupling structure is used, then components are secured, but structural rigidity is insufficient for large-screen ultra-thin devices
Solution Approach 1:
The patent transitions from a planar coupling plate to a three-dimensional pin structure that protrudes from the frame. This dimensional change allows the pins to engage with corresponding holes in the back cover and PCB, creating a more rigid spatial connection that resists bending and twisting forces better than a flat plate could provide.
Solution Approach 2:
The frame is constructed using a composite material structure combining a core layer with front and rear skin layers. This composite construction provides enhanced structural rigidity and strength to support the pins and withstand the mechanical stresses of large-screen ultra-thin display devices, while maintaining a thin overall profile.
