Flat Panel Display Support Assembly for Stable Angle Adjustment
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing flat panel display support devices using links or arms are structurally weak, especially when supporting heavier displays, and suffer from increased stress due to displacement of the center of gravity during angle adjustments, which can lead to instability.
Innovation Solution
A flat panel display remote-controlled viewing angle adjustment system featuring a support assembly with six rigid rectangular panels connected by hinges, driven by an electrical driving assembly and equipped with angular control mechanisms, including electric stoppers and rotation control mechanisms to minimize center of gravity displacement and distribute load effectively.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of manufacture
If links or arms are used to support the flat panel display, then the structure is simple, but the structural strength is weak when supporting heavier displays
Solution Approach 1:
The support device is divided into multiple rigid panels (first support panel, second support panel, third support panel, fourth support panel) connected by hinges, forming a segmented structure that maintains simplicity while distributing mechanical loads across multiple components, thereby improving overall structural strength for heavier displays
Solution Approach 2:
The patent employs rigid panels with high strength-to-weight ratio materials that combine structural simplicity with enhanced load-bearing capacity, allowing the support device to handle heavier flat panel displays while maintaining an easy-to-manufacture design
2Ease of operation
If the viewing angle is adjusted by rotating the display, then the viewing angle is improved, but the center of gravity displaces away from the mounting surface causing increased stress
Solution Approach 1:
The hinge connection between the first and second support panels allows the second support panel to rotate while maintaining the center of gravity of the flat panel display close to the mounting surface, creating an equipotential condition that minimizes stress on the support structure during viewing angle adjustments
Solution Approach 2:
The second support panel acts as an intermediary element between the mounting surface and the flat panel display, enabling viewing angle adjustment while keeping the display's center of gravity positioned favorably to reduce stress on the first support panel and mounting surface

AI summary
A flat panel display remote-controlled viewing angle adjustment system (1) comprising a support assembly (2) for supporting a flat panel display (9), an electrical driving assembly for driving the support assembly (2), and an angular control assembly attached to the support assembly (2). The adjustable system (1) is configured such that when the electrical driving assembly is started, the flat panel display (9) is rotated about a vertical axis that passes through one of the left side and the right side of the flat panel display (9) and only when the flat panel display (9) returns to zero angle position can it rotate about a vertical axis that passes through the other of the left side and the right side of the flat panel display (9).
