Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing mounting devices for flat-screen electronic displays lack precision in post-installation adjustment, often resulting in misalignment due to structural limitations and imprecise fasteners, which detracts from the aesthetic appeal of the installation.
Innovation Solution
A display mount with post-installation adjustment features, including vertically shiftable wall brackets and cross-supports with floating connection structures, allowing for independent vertical and horizontal adjustment of the display's position and orientation, along with tilt-adjustable display interface brackets to align the display perfectly with the mounting surface.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If traditional mounting devices are used with fixed fasteners, then installation is simple, but positioning precision and alignment accuracy deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The mounting device incorporates adjustable carriers that can be repositioned vertically along the wall brackets after installation. This dynamic adjustment capability allows the cross-supports to be precisely aligned with structural elements like ceiling beams or floor joists, resolving the contradiction between simple installation and positioning precision.
Solution Approach 2:
The mounting system is divided into separate adjustable components: wall brackets fixed to the wall, vertically adjustable carriers, and cross-supports that can be independently positioned. This segmentation enables precise post-installation adjustment of each component to achieve optimal alignment while maintaining overall system simplicity.
2Adaptability or versatility
If fasteners are used to secure the mounting device to the wall, then structural stability is achieved, but positioning flexibility and adjustment capability are lost
Solution Approach 1:
The carriers are designed with adjustment mechanisms that allow vertical repositioning along the wall brackets while maintaining secure attachment. This dynamic capability provides positioning flexibility without compromising structural stability, as the fasteners remain in place but the carriers can be adjusted to different heights.
Solution Approach 2:
The carriers act as intermediary components between the fixed wall brackets and the cross-supports. They provide the flexibility for adjustment while the wall brackets maintain structural stability, effectively mediating between the conflicting requirements of stability and adaptability.
3Ease of operation
If the mounting device is rigidly fixed during installation, then structural stability is ensured, but post-installation adjustment capability is eliminated
Solution Approach 1:
The mounting mechanism incorporates adjustable carriers with simple vertical movement capability along the wall brackets. This dynamic feature enables post-installation adjustment of the display position and orientation without requiring complex mechanisms, maintaining ease of operation while adding necessary flexibility.
4Measurement precision
If precise alignment is attempted during initial installation, then alignment accuracy improves, but installation time and difficulty increase
Solution Approach 1:
The wall brackets are installed first in relatively simple positions on the wall, without requiring precise alignment. The carriers are then adjusted vertically to achieve precise alignment of the cross-supports with structural elements. This preliminary action approach separates the rough installation phase from the precision alignment phase, reducing initial installation time while maintaining alignment accuracy.
Solution Approach 2:
The adjustable carriers enable alignment to be achieved after installation rather than during installation. This dynamic adjustment capability allows installers to complete the mounting quickly without precise initial positioning, then make fine adjustments to achieve optimal alignment, significantly reducing installation time while maintaining high alignment accuracy.

AI summary
A display mount with post-installation adjustment features according to embodiments of the present disclosure addresses the above-mentioned needs of the industry. The mount may include two or more wall brackets, each having a vertically shiftable carrier assembly. Cross-supports extend between the carrier assemblies and are received in floating connection structures in the carriers. An electronic display is coupled with the cross-supports. The carrier assembly of each wall bracket is independently vertically shiftable to shift the orientation of the cross-supports, and thereby adjust the vertical position and orientation of the electronic display device coupled with the cross-supports. The electronic display may be coupled to the cross-supports with display interface brackets which are tilt-adjustable to change the tilt position of the display device.
