Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current state detection systems for folding screens require multiple devices, leading to high costs and increased space, which contradicts the design objective of a light and thin machine, resulting in a poor user experience.
Innovation Solution
A state detection apparatus using a connection assembly with a first and second component that are electrically conductively coupled or decoupled based on the folding screen's motion state, and a detection assembly to determine the screen's state through electrical conduction or disconnection, reducing the number of components and complexity.

Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If multiple detection devices are used to detect the state of folding screen, then the detection accuracy is improved, but the device complexity and space occupation increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple detection functions into a single detection device. The detection device includes a first detection component and a second detection component that work together to detect both the first and second states of the folding screen, eliminating the need for separate detection devices for each state.
Solution Approach 2:
The detection device is designed with multi-functionality to perform multiple detection tasks. It can detect different states of the folding screen (first state and second state) using the same detection components, making the detection system universal rather than requiring specialized devices for each state.
2Measurement precision
If multiple detection devices are used to detect the state of folding screen, then the detection accuracy is improved, but the space occupation increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges multiple detection functions into a single compact detection device. The first and second detection components are integrated into one unit that occupies less space than multiple separate devices would require, while still maintaining the ability to detect multiple states accurately.
Solution Approach 2:
The detection components are arranged in a nested or integrated manner within the folding screen structure. The detection device is embedded within the existing structure, minimizing additional space occupation while maintaining detection capabilities.
3Measurement precision
If multiple detection devices are used to detect the state of folding screen, then the detection accuracy is improved, but the cost increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple detection functions into a single detection device, reducing the total number of components that need to be manufactured and assembled. This integration lowers manufacturing costs while maintaining the ability to detect multiple states with high accuracy.
Solution Approach 2:
By designing a universal detection device that can perform multiple detection functions, the patent eliminates the need to manufacture and stock multiple specialized detection devices, thereby reducing overall manufacturing costs while maintaining comprehensive state detection capability.
