Flat Panel Display Package Member Reinforcing Pad Shock Absorption
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing package members for flat panel display apparatuses lack sufficient strength in the front-to-rear direction, making them inadequate for effectively protecting the devices from external shocks and forces.
Innovation Solution
A package member design that includes first and second cushioning members coupled to the ends of the flat panel display apparatus, with a reinforcing pad formed from a plate-shaped member, supported by both cushioning members to enhance strength and absorb shocks, and a package box to enclose the apparatus.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Strength
If only cushioning members are used to package the flat panel display apparatus, then the structure remains simple, but the strength in the front-to-rear direction is insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple protective elements (first cushioning member, second cushioning member, and reinforcing pad) into an integrated package structure. The reinforcing pad is positioned between the two cushioning members to work together, creating a composite protective system that provides sufficient strength in the front-to-rear direction while maintaining reasonable structural simplicity.
2Reliability
If a reinforcing pad is added between cushioning members, then protection against external shocks is enhanced, but the package structure becomes more complex
Solution Approach 1:
The reinforcing pad is pre-positioned between the first and second cushioning members before the flat panel display apparatus is packaged. This beforehand cushioning arrangement ensures that the reinforcing structure is already in place to absorb and distribute external shocks, enhancing reliability without requiring complex assembly procedures during packaging.
3Object-affected harmful factors
If cushioning members are coupled to both ends of the display apparatus, then shock absorption is improved, but the structural stability in the front-to-rear direction remains insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
The package structure employs a composite arrangement combining soft cushioning members with a rigid reinforcing pad. The cushioning members provide shock absorption through their deformable material properties, while the reinforcing pad contributes structural stability through its rigid plate-shaped structure. This composite configuration addresses both shock absorption and structural stability requirements simultaneously.
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 solution provides enhanced protection against external shocks and forces by interposing a reinforcing pad between the cushioning members, thereby increasing the package member's strength and ensuring safer storage of the flat panel display apparatus.
Implementation Method 1
a reinforcing pad formed of a plate-shaped member and having one end supported by the first cushioning member and the other end supported by the second cushioning member to cover a space between the first cushioning member and the second cushioning member

AI summary
A package member includes a first cushioning member coupled to one end of a flat panel display apparatus, and a second cushioning member coupled to the other end of the flat panel display apparatus. The package member further includes a reinforcing pad formed of a plate-shaped member and having both ends supported by the first cushioning member and the second cushioning member. The reinforcing member increases the strength of the first and second cushioning members, enabling more safe protection of the flat panel display apparatus packaged in the package member.
