Front-Access Display Mounting With Magnetic Alignment Adjustment
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing display fixing apparatuses require a worker to be positioned between the wall and the display, necessitating a significant interval and increased time and complexity for alignment and installation, especially when multiple displays are involved, and require disassembly for repairs or replacements.
Innovation Solution
A display fixing apparatus with an adjustable fastening part and a magnet wheel, allowing the worker to fix the display from the front, featuring a rotating magnet that adjusts the length of the fastening part, enabling precise alignment and easy installation without the need for workers to be between the display and the wall, and allowing for independent adjustment of displays in the X, Y, and Z axes.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If a worker is positioned between the wall and the display for installation, then the display can be fixed to the wall, but a significant interval of 1m must be maintained and the working space is progressively narrowed
Solution Approach 1:
The patent inverts the traditional installation approach by allowing the worker to access and operate the display from the front side rather than requiring access from behind between the display and wall. The fastening apparatus enables alignment and securing operations to be performed from the front, eliminating the need for the worker to position themselves in the narrow space between the display rear surface and the wall.
2Manufacturing precision
If multiple displays are fixed to a wall, then the displays can be installed, but alignment checking requires workers to move in or be placed in the space between displays and wall
Solution Approach 1:
The patent employs a virtual reality (VR) copying system that creates a digital twin of the physical display installation environment. The VR terminal displays virtual images corresponding to the actual positions and alignment states of displays on the wall, allowing workers to check alignment from the front without needing to access the narrow space between displays and wall. The system captures real-time position information and renders it as visual feedback in the VR environment.
3Productivity
If displays are fixed simultaneously using adjacent fastening, then the installation is efficient, but repair or replacement requires disassembly by lengthwise or widthwise units increasing working time
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the fastening system into independent, modular fastening parts, each capable of securing an individual display to the wall. Each fastening part includes independent connection magnets and fastening members that can be operated separately. This modular segmentation allows any single display to be detached and replaced without requiring disassembly of adjacent displays, enabling independent repair while maintaining installation efficiency through the standardized fastening mechanism.
4Ease of operation
If the interval between wall and display is increased, then worker access is improved, but the space with display placed therein is progressively narrowed
Solution Approach 1:
The patent fundamentally changes the worker's access direction by enabling all installation, alignment, and adjustment operations to be performed from the front side of the display. The fastening apparatus is designed with front-accessible components including the VR terminal and control interfaces, eliminating the need for workers to position themselves behind the display in the narrow gap between the display rear surface and wall, thus preserving the available space.
Applied Scientific Principles
This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case
This solution minimizes the space required for installation, reduces the time and effort needed for alignment and repair, and allows for efficient installation in narrow spaces by enabling the worker to attach and adjust displays from the front, improving the efficiency and ease of use in fixing displays to walls.
Implementation Method 1
a magnet wheel including a rotating magnet. The connection magnet may be rotated by the rotating magnet to adjust a length of fastening part
