Switchable Display Stand Hinge for Flexible Mounting Space
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing display devices are not easily movable or mountable in limited spaces, lacking the flexibility to change mounting directions and requiring more space for installation.
Innovation Solution
A display device design featuring a body housing with a display module, a stand with coupling parts and a support part, and a hinge module that allows the stand to be switched between two states, enabling easy movement and mounting in various orientations.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If a display device is designed to be freely movable and easily mountable, then portability and ease of mounting are improved, but the mounting space requirement increases
Solution Approach 1:
The stand incorporates a hinge module that enables dynamic reconfiguration between two states: a first state where the support part is positioned in the rear side direction for wall-mounted installation, and a second state where the support part is positioned in the first direction for desktop placement. This dynamic adaptability allows the same structure to serve multiple mounting scenarios without requiring additional space for different mounting configurations
Solution Approach 2:
The stand structure with the hinge module serves multiple functions: it can be configured for wall mounting via the coupling parts coupled to the body housing, or reconfigured for desktop placement by rotating the hinge module. This multi-functionality eliminates the need for separate mounting hardware for different installation scenarios, thereby optimizing space utilization
2Adaptability or versatility
If a display device is designed to be freely movable, then portability is improved, but structural stability deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The hinge module provides controlled dynamic movement between two fixed states, allowing the stand to transition from a wall-mounted configuration to a desktop configuration. The rotation mechanism maintains structural integrity during transition while enabling adaptability to different mounting environments
Solution Approach 2:
The stand is divided into distinct functional components: coupling parts that attach to the body housing, a hinge module that enables rotation, and a support part that provides stability. This segmentation allows each component to be optimized for its specific function while maintaining overall structural stability during movement between states
