Solution Overview

Problem

Display devices are susceptible to abnormalities due to excessive temperature rise and vibrations caused by external light and environmental factors, which can damage the image display unit.

Innovation Solution

Incorporating a heat insulating part between the display back surface and the case opposing surface that elastically deforms to prevent heat transfer and absorbs vibrations, while a heat dissipating part dissipates heat to the outside, thereby stabilizing the display unit.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Stability of the object's composition

If the display unit is directly fixed to the case opposing surface, then the structural stability is improved, but heat transfer from the display case to the image display unit increases causing temperature rise abnormalities

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvestructural stabilityVSAvoiddisplay unit temperature
Core Design Contradiction:
Stability of the object's compositionVSTemperature

Solution Approach 1:

A heat insulating part is introduced as an intermediary component between the display case and the image display unit. This heat insulating part has heat insulating properties that prevent heat transfer from the display case to the image display unit, while still allowing the display unit to be fixed to the case opposing surface. The heat insulating part thus mediates between the structural stability requirement and the temperature control requirement.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Stability of the object's composition

If the display unit is rigidly fixed to the case, then the mounting stability is improved, but vibration transmission from the case to the display unit increases causing display abnormalities

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemounting stabilityVSAvoidvibration transmission
Core Design Contradiction:
Stability of the object's compositionVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The heat insulating part is designed with flexible properties that allow it to deform elastically in response to vibrations transmitted from the display case. This flexibility enables the heat insulating part to absorb and dampen vibration energy, preventing rigid transmission of vibrations to the image display unit while maintaining mounting stability. The flexible nature of the heat insulating part thus resolves the contradiction between stable mounting and vibration isolation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #30Flexible shells and thin films

3Temperature

If a thick heat insulating layer is added to prevent heat transfer, then the temperature control is improved, but the device thickness increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveheat insulation performanceVSAvoiddevice thickness
Core Design Contradiction:
TemperatureVSLength of stationary object

Solution Approach 1:

The heat insulating part is made of a composite material or structure that provides high heat insulation performance per unit thickness. This allows the heat insulating part to effectively prevent heat transfer from the display case to the image display unit while maintaining a relatively thin profile, thus avoiding significant increase in device thickness. The use of high-performance heat insulating materials resolves the contradiction between heat insulation effectiveness and device compactness.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #40Composite materials

AI summary

A display device includes an image display unit, a display case, and a heat insulating part. The image display unit has a display surface that displays an image and a display back surface opposite to the display surface. The display case has a case opposing surface opposing the display back surface and covering the display back surface. The heat insulating part is disposed between the display back surface and the case opposing surface to restrict heat from transferring from the display case to the image display unit. The heat insulating part being elastically deformed or flexibly stretched and deformed in accordance with a relative displacement of the image display unit with respect to the display case. The image display unit is fixed to the case opposing surface through the heat insulating part.
