Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional display apparatuses face issues with damage and instability when a stand is mounted, as they are prone to external forces and overturning, especially during positioning.

Innovation Solution

A display apparatus with a protection member system that includes detachable support and mounting part protection members, along with a stand design featuring a locking and separation preventing mechanism, to securely attach and stabilize the display on a stand, preventing rotation and separation.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If the stand is mounted on the display to enable floor erection, then the display can be positioned upright, but the display becomes vulnerable to external forces and overturning

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvefloor erection capabilityVSAvoidstability against overturning
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The protection member is divided into multiple detachable sections: a first protection member that covers the lower end portion of the display and a second protection member that covers the stand mounting part. This segmentation allows each section to provide specific protective functions while maintaining overall stability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The protection members are installed on the display before the stand is mounted. This preliminary protective action ensures that the display is already protected against external forces and overturning before the stand attachment process begins, preventing damage during assembly.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Ease of manufacture

If the display is laid flat for stand mounting, then the mounting process is simplified, but the display is exposed to external forces that may cause damage

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemounting process simplicityVSAvoidexternal force damage
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The protection members are installed beforehand to cushion and protect the display from external forces during the stand mounting process. The first protection member covers the lower end portion while the second covers the mounting part, creating a protective barrier before any mounting operations occur.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #11Beforehand cushioning (Prior cushioning)

Solution Approach 2:

The protection members function as protective shells that envelop vulnerable portions of the display. These shell-like structures provide physical protection while allowing the display to remain accessible for mounting operations.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #30Flexible shells and thin films

3Object-affected harmful factors

If a single protection member covers the entire display edge, then protection is comprehensive, but the stand mounting part remains exposed during assembly

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveedge protectionVSAvoidstand mounting accessibility
Core Design Contradiction:
Object-affected harmful factorsVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The protection system is segmented into distinct members: the first protection member for the lower end portion and the second protection member for the stand mounting part. This segmentation allows the second member to be detached or positioned to expose the mounting part while the first member continues to protect the lower edge.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The protection members are designed to be detachable and reconfigurable. The second protection member can be detached from the edge during stand mounting to provide access, then reattached afterward. This dynamic configuration allows the system to adapt between protection and accessibility states.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

AI summary

Disclosed is a display apparatus including a display including a stand mounting part, a stand to which the stand mounting part is coupleable to mount the display on the stand, and a protection member comprising a portion that includes a support protection member and is detachably coupleable along an edge of the display so that, when the portion is coupled along the edge of the display, the support protection member covers a lower end portion of the display, and a mounting part protection member that is detachably coupleable along the edge of the display so that, when the mounting part protection member is coupled along the edge of the display, the mounting part protection member covers a portion of the display along which the stand is mountable, wherein the mounting part protection member is separately detachable from along the edge of the display while the portion that includes the support protection member remains coupled along the edge of the display with the support protection member covering the lower end portion of the display, to thereby uncover the portion of the display along which the stand is mountable.
