Fabric Curtain with Flexible LED Light Strips for Interactive Display
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional curtains lack interactive display capabilities, failing to meet the diversified functional requirements of modern consumers beyond simple sunshade and heat insulation.
Innovation Solution
A combined fabric curtain with interactive display is developed, incorporating a curtain body made of light-transmitting fabrics and flexible LED light strips, controlled by a system to form preset patterns.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If conventional curtains are used for sunshade and heat insulation, then basic functional requirements are met, but interactive display capabilities and diversified functionality are lacking
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges conventional curtain structure with LED light strip technology to create a combined fabric curtain. The LED light strips are integrated into the curtain body, combining lighting/display functionality with the traditional sunshade and heat insulation functions of curtains, thereby achieving diversified functionality without requiring separate devices
Solution Approach 2:
The combined fabric curtain achieves multi-functionality by incorporating LED light strips that can display various patterns, colors, and animations while maintaining the original curtain functions of sunshade and heat insulation. The control system enables the curtain to perform multiple functions including decorative lighting, information display, and ambient atmosphere creation
2Adaptability or versatility
If LED light strips are added to curtains for interactive display, then decorative functionality and user experience are enhanced, but structure complexity and manufacturing difficulty increase
Solution Approach 1:
The curtain is divided into functional layers including a first fabric base layer and a second fabric covering layer, with LED light strips installed in the space between them. This segmentation allows independent manufacturing and assembly of different components, facilitating easier production and maintenance
Solution Approach 2:
The patent uses flexible LED light strips that can be bent and shaped to fit the curtain structure. These flexible light strips are installed within the fabric layers, allowing easy integration into the curtain without requiring rigid structures or complex mounting mechanisms
3Adaptability or versatility
If flexible LED light strips are integrated into the curtain body, then interactive display patterns are achieved, but the curtain structure becomes more complex with multiple layers and components
Solution Approach 1:
The LED light strips are nested within the curtain structure, specifically installed in the space between the first fabric base layer and the second fabric covering layer. This nesting approach integrates the lighting components within the existing curtain structure rather than adding external elements, minimizing structural complexity
Solution Approach 2:
The patent utilizes the vertical dimension of the curtain by spacing the first and second fabric layers apart to create a three-dimensional space for housing LED light strips. This allows the light strips to be embedded within the curtain thickness rather than attached to the surface, maintaining a sleek appearance while enabling interactive display functionality
Applied Scientific Principles
This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case
Enhances user experience through customizable light patterns, offering decorative functionality and versatility for indoor and outdoor use.
Implementation Method 1
The flexible LED light strips are fixedly installed in the limiting passages and are electrically connected to the control system. The control system controls the plurality of flexible LED light strips to interact and cooperate with each other to emit light to form preset patterns.
Implementation Method 2
The curtain body includes a first fabric base layer and a second fabric covering layer, the first fabric base layer and the second fabric covering layer are both made of light-transmitting fabrics

AI summary
Some embodiments of the disclosure relate to the technical field of circuits and disclose a combined fabric curtain with interactive display, including a curtain body and further including a control system and a plurality of flexible LED light strips. The curtain body includes a first fabric base layer and a second fabric covering layer; the control system controls the plurality of flexible LED light strips to interact and cooperate with each other to emit light to form preset patterns. The present disclosure may improve the structure of a conventional curtain and combine the conventional curtain with the flexible LED light strips to form the combined curtain with interactive display. As a result, the function of the curtain is no longer limited to sunshade and heat insulation, and the curtain may also have a decorative function and may form preset patterns by controlling the light strips as needed.
