Display Shading Shelter With Integrated Color Assessment Lighting
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional shading solutions for displays, such as gaming displays, either block ambient light completely, leading to dark environments, or allow ambient light to affect image quality, making it inconvenient to check objects or read documents without moving away from the display.
Innovation Solution
A shading apparatus with an integrated illumination function, comprising a shelter and a color assessment light module, allowing the module to be positioned inside or outside the shelter, providing adjustable lighting for color matching operations without affecting the appearance or functionality of the apparatus.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If a shelter is installed to block ambient light, then image quality is improved, but user convenience deteriorates because users must move away to check objects or read documents
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines the shelter structure with an illumination module into an integrated shading apparatus. The illumination module is embedded within the shelter, allowing the shelter to simultaneously provide light blocking and localized illumination functions. This merging resolves the contradiction by enabling users to check objects or read documents directly at the display location without moving away, while still maintaining the light-blocking capability for image quality.
Solution Approach 2:
The shelter is transformed from a single-function light-blocking structure into a multi-functional apparatus that combines both shading and illumination capabilities. The illumination module can be activated when users need to check objects or read documents, and deactivated when high image quality is needed. This universality allows the same structure to serve multiple purposes, resolving the contradiction between image quality and user convenience.
2Illumination intensity
If external illumination apparatus is used to provide lighting for color assessment, then illumination function is achieved, but device complexity increases and placement space is required
Solution Approach 1:
The illumination module is integrated directly into the shelter structure, merging two separate devices (shelter and external illumination apparatus) into one unified shading apparatus. This eliminates the need for separate external illumination devices, reducing overall device complexity and eliminating the need for additional placement space for separate illumination apparatus.
Solution Approach 2:
The illumination module is nested within the shelter structure, with the illumination holder positioned to allow light emission through the shelter opening. This nesting arrangement allows the illumination function to be embedded within the existing shelter volume, eliminating the need for external illumination devices and reducing overall system complexity.
3Adaptability or versatility
If the color assessment light module is disposed outside the shelter, then assembly flexibility is improved, but placement space increases
Solution Approach 1:
The illumination holder and color assessment light module are designed to be insertable into the shelter through the opening, allowing the module to be positioned either inside or outside the shelter based on assembly requirements. When inserted, the module occupies space within the shelter volume rather than requiring external placement space, thus reducing the overall footprint while maintaining assembly flexibility.

AI summary
A shading apparatus with an illumination function is applied to a display panel. The shading apparatus includes a shelter and a color assessment light module. The shelter is disposed on the display panel, and includes a top member, a first lateral member, a second lateral member and a first assembling component. The top member is disposed on an upper side of the display panel. The second lateral member is relative to the first lateral member. The first assembling component is disposed on the top member. The color assessment light module is disposed on the shelter, and includes a supporting component, a second assembling component and an illumination holder. The supporting component includes an accommodating portion, a connecting portion and a positioning portion. The second assembling component is detachably disposed on the accommodating portion and assembled with the first assembling component. The illumination holder is rotatably disposed on the connecting portion.
