Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Temperature

If a heat dissipation film with conductive layer is applied to the display substrate, then heat dissipation performance is improved, but charge distribution uniformity deteriorates causing display shadows

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveheat dissipation performanceVSAvoidcharge distribution uniformity
Core Design Contradiction:
TemperatureVSManufacturing precision

Solution Approach 1:

The conductive layer is segmented by creating pattern recognition holes that penetrate through it, dividing the continuous conductive layer into isolated regions. This segmentation allows different areas to have different charge distribution characteristics, preventing charge accumulation that causes display shadows while maintaining heat dissipation functionality.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The conductive material is extracted from the pattern recognition hole regions, removing the source of charge accumulation in critical areas. By taking out the conductive layer selectively at pattern recognition holes, the invention eliminates the harmful charge distribution uniformity issue while preserving the overall heat dissipation capability of the conductive layer.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

2Temperature

If the pattern recognition region is covered by heat dissipation film, then heat dissipation is improved, but pattern recognition accuracy deteriorates due to interference

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveheat dissipationVSAvoidpattern recognition accuracy
Core Design Contradiction:
TemperatureVSMeasurement precision

Solution Approach 1:

The heat dissipation film is segmented by creating pattern recognition holes that penetrate through the conductive layer and adhesive layer. This segmentation exposes specific regions (pattern recognition regions) where light can pass through to the sensor below, allowing pattern recognition to function accurately while the rest of the film continues to provide heat dissipation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The heat dissipation film material is extracted at the pattern recognition hole locations, removing the interfering material that would block light and sensor operation. This extraction creates clear optical paths for pattern recognition while maintaining the heat dissipation function in the surrounding areas of the film.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

3Measurement precision

If the pattern recognition hole is made larger to improve sensor exposure, then pattern recognition accuracy is improved, but structural stability of the heat dissipation film deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepattern recognition accuracyVSAvoidstructural stability
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSStrength

Solution Approach 1:

The heat dissipation film is designed with local quality variations: the adhesive layer is made thicker at the pattern recognition hole edges to provide local reinforcement and structural support. This localized thickening compensates for the structural weakness created by larger holes, maintaining overall film stability while allowing sufficient hole size for accurate pattern recognition.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality
