Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing wall mounts for display devices, such as televisions, lack the ability to efficiently adjust to multiple angles and positions within limited spaces, compromising user experience and space utilization.
Innovation Solution
A wall mount with a foldable, multi-segment rotatable supporting member comprising a wall fixing member, adjustable back plate, and rotatable arms that allow for telescopic and rotational adjustments, enabling multi-angle positioning and easy installation without requiring wall penetration.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a traditional fixed wall mount is used, then the installation structure is simple, but the television cannot be adjusted to multiple angles and positions
Solution Approach 1:
The supporting member is divided into multiple segments that can rotate relative to each other around a rotation axis. Each segment can be independently positioned, allowing the television to be adjusted to various angles and orientations while maintaining a manageable structural complexity through modular design
Solution Approach 2:
The wall mount transitions from a fixed structure to a dynamic one with rotatable segments. The supporting member can rotate between different positions around the rotation axis, enabling multi-angle adjustment capability while the mounting plate remains fixed to the wall
2Adaptability or versatility
If a wall mount with multi-segment rotatable supporting member is used, then multi-angle positioning is enabled, but the installation complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The mounting plate is pre-fixed to the wall before attaching the rotatable supporting member segments. This preliminary action simplifies the overall installation process by establishing a stable base first, then sequentially adding the rotatable segments with their connection structures
Solution Approach 2:
The supporting member is segmented into multiple rotatable parts that can be assembled and adjusted independently. This modular segmentation allows for easier manufacturing and installation compared to a monolithic structure, as each segment can be produced and positioned separately
3Ease of operation
If the supporting member is fixed, then the structure is stable, but the television cannot be positioned at various angles
Solution Approach 1:
The supporting member is designed with rotational freedom around a fixed rotation axis. This dynamic design allows the television to be positioned at various angles while the rotation axis itself remains stable and fixed, providing both adjustability and structural stability
Solution Approach 2:
The rotation mechanism merges the fixed mounting plate with the adjustable supporting member. The mounting plate provides stable fixed attachment to the wall, while the supporting member segments can rotate around the shared rotation axis, combining stability with operational flexibility

AI summary
The present discloses a wall mount and a method of installing wall mount. The wall mount includes a metal piece; an adjustable back plate; and a rotatable supporting member movably connected to the metal piece and the adjustable back plate. A combination of the first frame and the metal piece forms a geometric configuration with a hollow space, which defines a first storage space configured to receive the second frame and the third frame in the second state; and a second storage space is defined between a second pivot member and a third pivot member and is configured to receive the third frame when the rotatable supporting member is in the second state, such that in the second state, the third frame is accommodated into the second storage space, and a folded structure formed by the second frame and the third frame is accommodated in the first storage space.
