Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of manufacture
If the flexible display screen is kept in a fixed shape, then the structure is simple and easy to manufacture, but the visual experience is poor and causes aesthetic fatigue
Solution Approach 1:
The display screen transitions from a static fixed shape to a dynamic configurable shape. The screen can be bent to different curvature radii and maintained in multiple shapes through the adsorption device, allowing it to adapt to different display scenarios and user preferences while maintaining manufacturing simplicity
Solution Approach 2:
The shape parameters of the display screen are made changeable. By adjusting the bending curvature radius and using the adsorption device to maintain different shapes, the screen can present various curved forms without changing its physical structure, thus improving visual experience while keeping the manufacturing process simple
2Adaptability or versatility
If the flexible display screen is made bendable and configurable, then the visual experience is improved, but the device complexity increases due to additional mechanisms
Solution Approach 1:
The device is divided into independent functional modules: the flexible display screen module, the housing module, and the adsorption device module. This segmentation allows each module to perform its specific function independently, simplifying the overall system while achieving shape changeability
Solution Approach 2:
The adsorption device acts as an intermediary between the user and the display screen. It provides the necessary support and adsorption force to maintain the screen in bent positions without requiring complex mechanical structures directly integrated with the screen, thus reducing overall device complexity
3Area of moving object
If the flexible display screen is unrolled and extended, then the display area is increased, but the screen is more vulnerable to damage
Solution Approach 1:
The housing is designed with an opening that allows the flexible display screen to extend outward. This flexible shell structure provides protection when the screen is retracted while allowing full display area when extended, balancing protection and display area requirements
Solution Approach 2:
The adsorption device provides beforehand support to the extended screen, preventing accidental damage by maintaining stable positioning. The housing structure also provides a protective boundary that cushions the screen during extension and retraction operations

Function Achieved in This Case
Enables the flexible display screen to present various curved shapes, providing a dynamic aesthetic experience while being protected and portable, with improved usability and reduced risk of damage.
Implementation Method 1
an adsorption device, the adsorption device including a display screen adsorption plate located outside the housing, and the display screen adsorption plate has an adsorption surface, so that when the flexible display screen is in an unrolled state, the adsorption device adsorbs the flexible display screen so as to enable the fitting surface to be attached to the adsorption surface
Implementation Method 2
a driving device installed in the accommodating space, and the driving device is configured to drive the reel to rotate around its own axis to drive the flexible display screen to be rolled or unrolled
