Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional display devices with LEDs require additional backlights, making them less compact and less efficient in terms of optical performance compared to LCDs, and they lack the flexibility to alter aspect ratios and scale for large displays.

Innovation Solution

A compact light emitting device package is developed, featuring flip-chip structured light emitting chips with integrated wirings and electrode pads, covered by a translucent molding member that includes a metal layer, colored lower layer, and partition structure, allowing for efficient light emission and easy mounting without the need for a PCB or lead-frame, enabling flexible display configurations.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Illumination intensity

If conventional display devices use additional backlights, then illumination intensity is improved, but device complexity and volume increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveillumination intensityVSAvoiddevice complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Illumination intensityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent combines the backlight unit and display panel into a single integrated structure. The light emitting chips are mounted directly on the lower surface of the molding member, eliminating the need for separate backlight components and reducing overall device complexity while maintaining illumination intensity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The molding member serves multiple functions: it protects the light emitting chips, provides structural support, and acts as the illumination source itself. This multi-functionality reduces the number of separate components needed, thereby reducing device complexity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

2Illumination intensity

If conventional display devices use additional backlights, then illumination intensity is improved, but volume of moving object increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveillumination intensityVSAvoidvolume of moving object
Core Design Contradiction:
Illumination intensityVSVolume of moving object

Solution Approach 1:

By integrating the backlight function into the display panel structure itself, the patent eliminates the need for separate backlight housing and components, significantly reducing the overall volume of the display device while maintaining adequate illumination intensity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The light emitting chips are nested within the molding member structure, with the wiring embedded in the lower surface. This nested arrangement maximizes space utilization and minimizes the overall volume of the display device

Inventive Principle:
Principle #7Nested doll (Nesting)

3Illumination intensity

If conventional display devices use additional backlights, then illumination intensity is improved, but manufacturing precision requirements increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveillumination intensityVSAvoidmanufacturing precision
Core Design Contradiction:
Illumination intensityVSManufacturing precision

Solution Approach 1:

The wiring is embedded in the lower surface of the molding member during the molding process itself, rather than being added separately afterward. This preliminary action reduces the number of subsequent assembly steps and lowers the precision requirements for later manufacturing operations

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent uses a flip-chip mounting technique where the light emitting chips are inverted and mounted directly onto the wiring. This changes the mounting parameters and allows for more tolerant alignment specifications compared to traditional wire-bonding methods, reducing manufacturing precision requirements

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes
