Display Mount Quick-Release Structure to Prevent Tilt and Friction
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing quick disassembly mechanisms for displays suffer from limitations such as increased plastic sliding plate dimensions, exposure during assembly, and improper collisions or tilting due to gaps, leading to friction or shaking issues.
Innovation Solution
A supporting device with a quick-release mechanism featuring a support unit and a carrying module, including a quick-release sliding member with elastic members and positioning members, allowing the carrying module to be pivoted and buckled onto a display, with the sliding member transforming between positions to facilitate easy attachment and detachment.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If the limiting pins are fixed directly to the main connecting plate below the accommodation grooves, then the quick release function is achieved, but the plastic sliding plate dimension must be increased and it becomes exposed during assembly
Solution Approach 1:
The patent relocates the limiting pins from a vertical arrangement (below accommodation grooves) to a horizontal arrangement (at both ends of the sliding groove covering part). This dimensional change allows the plastic sliding plate to be smaller while still achieving the quick release function, as the pins now constrain movement at the extremes of the groove rather than requiring a large plate to accommodate vertical pin movement.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces the sliding groove covering part as an intermediary component that houses the limiting pins at its ends. This mediator allows the pins to function without being directly attached to the main connecting plate below the grooves, enabling a more compact plastic sliding plate design while maintaining the quick release mechanism's functionality.
2Ease of operation
If the plastic sliding plate is disposed on one side of the main connecting plate away from the plastic rear cover, then the quick release mechanism operates, but improper collision may occur during assembly and friction with the back shell may occur
Solution Approach 1:
Instead of placing the plastic sliding plate on one side of the main connecting plate (away from the rear cover), the patent positions it at the center, spanning across the accommodation grooves. This inverted positioning approach ensures the sliding plate remains centrally aligned with the display's recess, preventing collisions and friction with the back shell while maintaining quick release functionality.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent designs the sliding groove covering part with limiting pins positioned at its ends before assembly occurs. This preliminary positioning ensures that during assembly, the limiting pins guide the plastic sliding plate into correct alignment within the recess, preventing improper collisions and friction with surrounding components.
3Ease of operation
If a specific gap is required between the plastic sliding plate and the back shell, then the quick release mechanism functions, but the plastic sliding plate may be tilted or shake improperly
Solution Approach 1:
The patent changes the positional parameter of the plastic sliding plate from being offset to one side to being centered within the recess. This parameter change allows for optimized gap distribution on all sides, providing sufficient space for quick release operation while simultaneously improving stability by centering the plate, which reduces tilting and shaking during use.
Applied Scientific Principles
This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case
The device ensures secure attachment without exposure or friction, preventing collisions and tilting, and allows for easy assembly and disassembly by reducing the size of the quick-release sliding member and maintaining alignment with the display's recess.
Implementation Method 1
two elastic members, two ends of the elastic member respectively abut against the bending pieces and the base portions
Implementation Method 2
when the quick-release sliding member is transformed from the second position to the first position, the elastic members rebound

AI summary
A supporting device for carrying a display on a work surface is provided and comprises: a support unit disposed on the work surface; and a carrying module pivotally connected to the support unit and accommodated on a back surface of the display, the carrying module including: a main plate member having at least two buckling tongue pieces; a quick-release sliding member having at least two buckling blocks and two through slots; two elastic members misaligned with the through slots; two first positioning members and two second positioning members respectively passing through the through slots and fixed to the main plate member; wherein the quick-release sliding member can be transformed between a first position and a second position relative to the main plate member, so that the buckling tongue pieces and the buckling blocks can be buckled on or detached from the display.
