Display Screen Assembly With Decoration Enclosure Shielding
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing smartphones have a low screen-to-body ratio, which negatively impacts user experience due to the large non-display areas and the need for a black-ink edge to shield these areas, reducing aesthetics and functionality.
Innovation Solution
A display screen assembly comprising a cover plate, a display screen, a bracket, and a decoration enclosure, where the display screen is wider than the cover plate, and the decoration enclosure is used to shield the non-display area, reducing the need for a black-ink edge and enhancing the screen-to-body ratio, with the decoration enclosure being joined to the cover plate using adhesive for sealing and protection.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Object-affected harmful factors
If a black-ink edge is used to shield the non-display area of the display screen, then the non-display area is effectively shielded, but the screen-to-body ratio is reduced and aesthetics are compromised
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts the shielding function from the traditional black-ink edge approach and relocates it to a decoration enclosure positioned at the side edge of the cover plate. This separates the shielding function from the display area, allowing the display screen to extend closer to the cover plate edges while the decoration enclosure handles the shielding of non-display areas from the side view.
Solution Approach 2:
Instead of shielding the non-display area from the front view using a black-ink edge, the patent shifts the shielding approach to the side dimension by positioning the decoration enclosure at the side edge of the cover plate. This dimensional shift allows the display screen to occupy more of the front surface area while shielding remains effective from side perspectives.
2Area of stationary object
If the display screen width is increased to improve screen-to-body ratio, then more display area is available, but the cover plate structure becomes insufficient to shield the non-display area
Solution Approach 1:
The decoration enclosure serves multiple functions: it acts as a shield for the non-display area, provides a side edge structure for the device, and contributes to the overall aesthetic design. This multi-functional element replaces the need for the cover plate to perform both structural and shielding functions, enabling the display screen to be wider while maintaining effective shielding.
3Device complexity
If the cover plate edge is positioned at the same level as the display screen edge, then the structure is simplified, but the non-display area cannot be effectively shielded
Solution Approach 1:
The decoration enclosure is nested at the side edge of the cover plate, creating a layered structure where the decoration enclosure provides the shielding function while the cover plate maintains its structural role. This nested arrangement allows both elements to coexist with their respective functions intact, achieving both shielding effectiveness and structural integrity.
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 increases the screen-to-body ratio, enhances product quality, and improves user experience by eliminating or minimizing the black-ink edge, while also providing protection and waterproofing, and improving the ergonomic feel of the device.
