Solution Overview

Problem

Existing computer stands cannot adjust the height of the laptop placement and are inconvenient to adjust the tilt angle, limiting user comfort and flexibility.

Innovation Solution

A mobile terminal stand with a supporting base, first and second supporting members, and propping components that are rotatably connected and foldable, allowing for adjustable angles and heights to accommodate various devices, featuring extension components and damping layers for stability and tactile feedback.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If the bottom end of the inclined supporting member is adjusted on the base to change tilt angle, then the tilt angle can be adjusted, but the height of laptop placement cannot be adjusted and it is inconvenient for users to use

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetilt angle adjustmentVSAvoidconvenience of adjustment
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies dynamics by making the supporting members rotatable relative to each other through rotary connections. The first supporting member can rotate relative to the base, and the second supporting member can rotate relative to the first supporting member, enabling dynamic adjustment of both height and tilt angle without complex mechanisms

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The patent segments the supporting structure into multiple independent rotatable components (base, first supporting member, second supporting member, propping component). Each segment can be adjusted independently through rotary connections, allowing separate control of height and tilt angle adjustments

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Ease of operation

If the stand structure is made foldable for easy storage and carrying, then portability is improved, but the complexity of the structure increases

Engineering Contradiction:
ImproveportabilityVSAvoidstructural complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges the supporting and propping functions into a single integrated propping component that serves dual purposes. The propping component both supports the laptop and provides the folding mechanism, eliminating the need for separate structures and reducing overall complexity despite adding foldability

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

AI summary

A mobile terminal stand includes a supporting base, a first supporting member, a second supporting member, and a propping component. The supporting base includes a first bottom member and a second bottom member rotatably connected to the first bottom member. The propping component includes a first propping member and a second propping member rotatably connected to the first propping member. Two ends of the first supporting member are respectively rotatably connected to the first bottom member and the second supporting member, and the second supporting member is rotatably connected to the first propping member. The first bottom member, the second bottom member, the first propping member, and the second propping member are all in a long strip shape. The first bottom member and the second bottom member are brought together at both ends in a storage state and unfolded in a use state.
