Rotatable Dual-Body Display Structure for Flexible Screen Orientation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional electronic devices have a fixed, integrated host structure that cannot accommodate various user needs for position and attitude adjustments, particularly in scenarios like online classes where flexible display orientations are necessary.
Innovation Solution
The electronic device features a host divided into a first body and a second body, with a display screen rotatably connected to either, allowing for relative rotation and attitude adjustments through rotating shaft mechanisms, enabling the display screen to be positioned and oriented in multiple ways to suit different usage scenarios.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the host is designed as an integrated fixed structure, then the device structure is simple and easy to manufacture, but it cannot accommodate various user needs for position and attitude adjustments
Solution Approach 1:
The host is divided into a first body and a second body that can rotate relative to each other. The display screen is separately rotatably connected to either body, allowing independent adjustment of the host orientation and screen orientation. This segmentation enables multiple usage scenarios (horizontal/vertical screen, different viewing angles) without requiring a completely different integrated structure for each scenario.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces rotating connections with rotating shaft mechanisms that allow dynamic adjustment of the display screen position and attitude. The first body and second body can rotate relative to each other, and the display screen can rotate independently, transforming the static fixed structure into a dynamic adjustable structure that adapts to various usage needs.
2Adaptability or versatility
If the display screen is fixed to the host, then the structure is stable and simple, but the display orientation cannot be adjusted for different usage scenarios
Solution Approach 1:
The display screen is connected to the host through a rotating connection mechanism rather than a fixed connection. The rotating shaft mechanism allows the display screen to rotate independently from the host, enabling horizontal/vertical orientation switching and angle adjustments while maintaining a relatively simple mechanical connection structure.
3Adaptability or versatility
If the host is divided into multiple rotatable bodies, then various positions and attitudes can be achieved, but the structure becomes more complex
Solution Approach 1:
The host is segmented into a first body and a second body with a rotating connection between them. This segmentation allows the first body to support the display screen while the second body provides additional structural support and rotation capability. The segmentation enables achieving multiple positions and attitudes through relative rotation of the two bodies without requiring an overly complex multi-component mechanism.
Solution Approach 2:
The rotating connection mechanism between the first body and second body serves multiple functions: it allows orientation adjustment, supports weight distribution, and enables various usage scenarios (horizontal/vertical screen, different viewing angles). This multi-functional design reduces the need for separate mechanisms for each function, thereby controlling overall structural complexity.
