Reconfigurable Display Support Structure for Stable Flexible Placement
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
There is a need for a supporting body that can aesthetically and stably support large, thin display units, allowing for flexible installation options based on user preference and environment, as existing solutions do not offer sufficient adaptability or aesthetics.
Innovation Solution
A supporting body comprising a first and second supporting unit, detachably attached to the display unit, which can be rearranged to select between two installation states, allowing the display unit to stand on a placement surface with varying support configurations, including different mounting positions and attitudes of the supporting units to optimize stability and aesthetics.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a single fixed supporting unit is used, then the structure is simple, but the adaptability to different installation environments and user preferences is poor
Solution Approach 1:
The supporting body is divided into multiple detachable supporting units (first supporting unit and second supporting unit) that can be independently positioned and configured. Each supporting unit can be detached and repositioned to different locations on the display unit, enabling adaptation to various installation environments and user preferences without requiring a completely different support structure for each scenario.
2Adaptability or versatility
If multiple different supporting units are provided for different positions, then the adaptability is improved, but the quantity of components increases
Solution Approach 1:
The first supporting unit and the second supporting unit are designed as interchangeable components that can perform the same supporting function at different positions on the display unit. Each supporting unit is universally applicable to multiple mounting locations, allowing the system to achieve multiple installation configurations using a limited set of identical or similar components rather than requiring unique components for each position.
3Ease of operation
If the supporting units are fixed in position, then the manufacturing is simple, but the ease of operation for reconfiguration is poor
Solution Approach 1:
The supporting units are designed with detachable connections that allow them to be easily removed and repositioned from fixed locations. The mounting mechanism enables dynamic reconfiguration where supporting units can be detached from one position and attached to another position on the display unit, providing operational flexibility while maintaining secure attachment during use.

AI summary
There is provided a supporting body that is able to select a form of support to a display unit in accordance with a user's purpose or preference, an installation environment, or the like. The supporting body supports the display unit, and includes a first supporting unit and a second supporting unit that are detachably provided on the display unit, and a first form and a second form are configured to be selectable. In the first form, the first supporting unit is mounted at a first position of the display unit and the second supporting unit is mounted at a second position of the display unit. In the second form, the second supporting unit is mounted at the first position or a third position of the display unit, and the first supporting unit is mounted at the second position or a fourth position of the display unit.
