Solution Overview

Problem

Digital signage systems experience screen distortion due to height or level differences between adjacent display panels, leading to gaps and instability.

Innovation Solution

A multi-display device design that adjusts height differences using a combination of fastening brackets, resin coupling, and module holders, allowing for precise alignment and compensation of thickness variations between display modules.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Manufacturing precision

If display panels are installed using conventional fixed mounting methods, then assembly is simple and quick, but screen distortion occurs due to height differences between adjacent panels

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvescreen flatnessVSAvoidmounting structure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The mounting structure uses a nested design where the adjustment mechanism is integrated within the mounting bracket. The bracket contains internal components that allow height adjustment without adding external complexity, enabling precise screen flatness adjustment while maintaining a compact and simple overall structure.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #7Nested doll (Nesting)

Solution Approach 2:

The mounting structure transitions from a fixed rigid design to a dynamic adjustable design. The bracket incorporates movable components that allow height adjustment during installation, enabling the system to adapt to different panel thicknesses and achieve proper screen alignment, thereby resolving the contradiction between simplicity and precision.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

2Manufacturing precision

If adjustable mounting mechanisms are used to compensate for height differences, then screen distortion is reduced, but assembly time and complexity increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepanel alignmentVSAvoidassembly time
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The mounting bracket is pre-configured with adjustment mechanisms and positioning features that enable quick height adjustment during assembly. The preliminary design of the bracket includes integrated adjustment components that eliminate the need for complex post-assembly adjustments, thereby reducing overall assembly time while maintaining precise panel alignment.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The mounting structure allows for quick parameter adjustment (height position) through a simplified mechanism. The bracket can be easily adjusted to different height positions using a user-friendly interface, enabling rapid compensation for panel thickness variations without requiring time-consuming manual adjustments or specialized tools.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Adaptability or versatility

If display modules with different thicknesses are installed, then design flexibility is improved, but maintaining a flat front surface becomes difficult

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemodule thickness variationVSAvoidfront surface flatness
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSShape

Solution Approach 1:

The mounting bracket is designed with localized adjustment capabilities at each mounting position. Each bracket can be independently adjusted to compensate for the specific thickness of the installed display module, allowing the system to accommodate modules with different thicknesses while maintaining overall front surface flatness through localized adaptations.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

4Stability of the object's composition

If permanent adhesive bonding is used to secure display modules, then structural stability is improved, but maintenance and replacement become difficult

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemodule stabilityVSAvoidmodule replaceability
Core Design Contradiction:
Stability of the object's compositionVSEase of repair

Solution Approach 1:

The mounting system divides the connection into two stages: a permanent adhesive bonding phase for initial securing, and a mechanical fastening phase using removable fasteners. This segmentation allows the module to achieve structural stability through adhesive while maintaining replaceability through the mechanical fastening components that can be easily removed for maintenance or replacement.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation
