Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing display mounting apparatuses face challenges in adjusting tilt angles, particularly for large displays, which are laborious and affect connection stability, and often require complex wiring connections that interfere with wall sockets.
Innovation Solution
A display mounting apparatus with tilt angle adjustment brackets featuring a rotatable bracket with X-shaped supporting arms and sliding members, allowing for simultaneous adjustment of tilt angle and distance, maintaining stable center of gravity and preventing wiring interference.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a folding arm with rotating shaft and locking knob is used to adjust tilt angle, then the display tilt angle can be adjusted, but the adjustment process becomes laborious and connection stability deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent employs a dynamic adjustment mechanism where the connecting plate can rotate freely around the rotating shaft without requiring manual locking operations. The foldable supporting arm structure allows smooth transitions between tilted and non-tilted positions through simple manual manipulation, eliminating the need for complex locking knobs and arc hole alignment procedures.
2Volume of moving object
If the mounting apparatus is designed with small thickness to save space, then the distance between display and wall is reduced, but the tilt angle adjustment range is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a foldable supporting arm mechanism that operates in a third dimension, allowing the connecting plate to rotate and extend outward when tilted. This enables large tilt angles while maintaining a compact profile when the supporting arm is folded against the mounting plate, effectively resolving the conflict between thin design and adjustment range.
3Ease of manufacture
If wiring is connected before hanging the display, then wiring can be connected to socket, but the wiring interferes with socket or other plugs when hanging plate is attached
Solution Approach 1:
The patent incorporates a wiring management system that allows users to connect power and signal cables to the display before mounting it on the wall. The mounting plate and supporting structure are designed with sufficient clearance and routing paths that accommodate connected wiring, preventing interference with wall sockets and other plugs during and after installation.

AI summary
A display mounting apparatus includes a mounting plate and at least one tilt angle adjustment bracket including a rotatable bracket. The rotatable bracket adjusts tilt angle and distance between the connecting plate and the supporting frame assembly simultaneously and connects supporting frame assembly and connecting plate. The rotatable bracket includes at least one set of supporting arms which includes a first supporting arm and a second supporting arm which are pivotally connected in an X shape through a pivot, upper and lower ends of the first supporting arm are rotatably connected to supporting frame assembly and connecting plate respectively, upper and lower ends of the second supporting arm are slidably connected to connecting plate and supporting frame assembly. A distance from the upper end of the first supporting arm to the pivot is greater than a distance from the lower end of the first supporting arm to the pivot.
