Detachable Display Mount Structure for Desktop and Wall Use
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional display devices require separate hanging structures when intended for wall mounting, leading to unnecessary costs as users often need to purchase additional components.
Innovation Solution
A display device design featuring a screen, a base, and an adaptable connector that allows the device to be either erected on a plane or directly attached to a wall, enabling versatile mounting options without additional hardware.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a display device is designed with a fixed hanging structure for wall mounting, then wall mounting capability is improved, but device complexity and cost increase
Solution Approach 1:
The base is designed with dual functionality: it can serve as a standing base when placed on a surface, or as a wall mounting base when attached to a wall. The base includes a mounting hole configured to receive a mounting bolt, enabling wall attachment, while also having a bottom surface for placing on surfaces. This multi-functional design eliminates the need for separate hanging structures, reducing device complexity while maintaining adaptability for both desktop and wall mounting scenarios
2Adaptability or versatility
If a display device is designed with a fixed hanging structure for wall mounting, then wall mounting capability is improved, but cost increases
Solution Approach 1:
The base is designed with dual functionality: it can serve as a standing base when placed on a surface, or as a wall mounting base when attached to a wall. The base includes a mounting hole configured to receive a mounting bolt, enabling wall attachment, while also having a bottom surface for placing on surfaces. This multi-functional design eliminates the need for separate hanging structures, reducing device complexity while maintaining adaptability for both desktop and wall mounting scenarios
Solution Approach 2:
The patent merges the functions of a standalone base and a wall mounting bracket into a single integrated base structure. The base combines the support function for the screen with the wall mounting function, eliminating the need for separate hanging structures. This consolidation reduces the quantity of components needed while maintaining both desktop and wall mounting capabilities
3Adaptability or versatility
If an adaptor is included for versatile mounting options, then adaptability is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The mounting system is segmented into detachable components: the base with its integrated mounting hole, the mounting bolt, and the screen. This segmentation allows the base to function independently as either a standing base or a wall mounting base, providing versatility without requiring a complex integrated adaptor structure. The simple hole-bolt mechanism enables wall mounting while keeping the overall device complexity low

AI summary
A display device including a screen, a base and an adaptor is provided. The adaptor can be selectively detached from or connected to the screen and the base. When the base is connected to the screen through the adaptor, the display device is erected on a plane through the base. When the base and the screen are directly connected, the display device is attached to a wall through the base. Thus, the screen and the base can switch between a stand-up mode or a hanging mode through the adaptor.
