Solution Overview

Problem

Existing computer systems face issues with cable management and accidental unplugging due to cabling disorders, leading to instability and safety concerns in office environments.

Innovation Solution

A computer system design featuring a display stand with a bottom plate and vertical section, where an electronic computer device is securely mounted using a mounting bracket that overlaps the device's housing, providing support from both the vertical section and bottom plate, and optionally using fixation pins or elastic elements for stable and tool-free installation.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If the electronic computer device is connected via cables to the display, then video and audio data can be transferred, but cable disorder and accidental unplugging occur leading to instability

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveconnection stabilityVSAvoidcable spaghetti and accidental unplugging
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSObject-generated harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts the computer device from its traditional separate placement and integrates it directly onto the display stand structure. The mounting bracket removes the need for external cables by providing direct physical and data connection, eliminating cable spaghetti and accidental unplugging issues.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent merges the computer device mounting function with the display stand structure. The mounting bracket is integrated into the stand, combining support and connection functions into a single unified structure, eliminating the need for separate cable management.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

2Ease of operation

If the electronic computer device is placed on a separate surface, then space is required, but this increases device complexity and installation difficulty

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinstallation easeVSAvoidmounting structure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The display stand is designed with multi-functionality, serving both as a support structure for the display and as a mounting platform for the computer device. The mounting bracket provides universal compatibility with standard display stand structures, simplifying installation without requiring additional complex components.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

3Strength

If the mounting bracket overlaps the housing at one side, then support is provided, but moment forces increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemounting support strengthVSAvoidmoment forces
Core Design Contradiction:
StrengthVSForce

Solution Approach 1:

The mounting bracket extends in multiple dimensions to distribute support forces. By overlapping the housing at one side and extending the support structure, the bracket transforms point loads into distributed loads across multiple contact points, reducing moment forces while maintaining mounting strength.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)
