Display Inspection Device Segmented Switch for Heat Dissipation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing inspection devices for display apparatuses face challenges in preventing damage and burning during the inspection process, particularly due to the design of the opening portion which can lead to overheating and adhesion issues when closing and opening.
Innovation Solution
An inspection device with a stage, an opening/closing module, and an inspection module, where the opening/closing module includes a switch and a switch moving part that rotates to ensure the switch is coplanar with the seating portion, reducing contact and adhesion, and the inspection module applies voltage to detect electrical signals while minimizing overheating.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If the opening portion is closed during inspection, then electrical contact is improved, but burning and overheating of the display apparatus occurs
Solution Approach 1:
The opening portion is divided into multiple segments that can be independently controlled. During inspection, only the necessary segments are closed to establish electrical contact, while other segments remain open to allow heat dissipation, thus preventing burning and overheating while maintaining adequate electrical contact.
Solution Approach 2:
The opening portion transitions from a static closed state to a dynamic state where segments can be selectively opened or closed. During inspection, the system dynamically adjusts which segments are closed based on the specific inspection needs, allowing optimal balance between electrical contact and heat management.
2Measurement precision
If the opening portion is closed during inspection, then electrical contact is improved, but damage during detachment occurs
Solution Approach 1:
The opening portion is segmented to allow selective closure. During detachment, only the segments that were closed during inspection remain closed, while other segments are open, creating gaps that prevent adhesion and facilitate easy, damage-free detachment of the display apparatus.
Solution Approach 2:
The segmented opening portion acts as an intermediary structure that can be in different states. During detachment, the open segments serve as intermediaries that prevent direct contact between the display apparatus and the inspection device, reducing adhesion and preventing damage.
3Measurement precision
If the switch is moved to close the opening portion, then electrical contact is established, but contact area increases causing adhesion
Solution Approach 1:
The switch is designed with segmented contact points that correspond to the segmented opening portion. When closed, only specific segments make contact, minimizing the total contact area and reducing adhesion forces while still establishing the necessary electrical connections for inspection.
