Multi-sided Display Panel Bending Assembly
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing multi-sided light-emitting display apparatuses require complex assembly processes and multiple components, making them costly and difficult to manufacture.
Innovation Solution
A multi-sided light-emitting display apparatus is designed using only two display panels, where the edge areas of each panel are bent and assembled to form a multi-sided structure, simplifying the assembly process.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of manufacture
If multiple components and complex assembly processes are used to create multi-sided light-emitting display apparatuses, then the display functionality is achieved, but the manufacturing complexity and cost increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the first and second display panels into a single integrated structure where the edge areas are bent and assembled to form a multi-sided configuration. This combining of multiple panels into one unified apparatus reduces the number of separate components and simplifies the assembly process while maintaining multi-sided display functionality.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent divides each display panel into distinct functional areas: a display area and edge areas. The edge areas are specifically designed to be bent and assembled with adjacent panels, while the display areas maintain their light-emitting functionality. This segmentation allows for simplified manufacturing of individual components that can be easily assembled into the final multi-sided structure.
2Adaptability or versatility
If multiple components are used to achieve multi-sided display functionality, then the display capability is improved, but the manufacturing cost increases
Solution Approach 1:
The edge areas of the display panels serve multiple functions: they provide structural support for bending, enable the multi-sided configuration through assembly, and maintain compatibility with the display areas. This multi-functionality reduces the need for separate components and lowers manufacturing costs while achieving multi-sided display capability.

AI summary
A multi-sided light-emitting display apparatus includes a first display panel including a first display area, and a 1-1 edge area and a 1-2 edge area on opposite sides of the first display area, and a second display panel including a second display area, and a 2-1 edge area and a 2-2 edge area on opposite sides of the second display area. The second display panel is assembled with the first display panel with the 1-1 edge area and the 1-2 edge area being bent toward the second display area, and the 2-1 edge area and the 2-2 edge area being bent toward the first display area.
