Glass-Cover Display Stand Layout for a Floating Look and Stability
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Display devices with stands often have a visible stand that detracts from the aesthetic appearance and creates a sense that the display panel does not float in the air, and there is a need for a design that minimizes stand visibility while ensuring stability on inclined surfaces.
Innovation Solution
A display device design featuring a glass panel with a deco part that does not overlap the display panel, a stand located behind the glass cover, and a non-slip part at the lower end to prevent sliding, along with a cable guide and reflective layer to minimize stand recognition, providing a floating appearance and enhanced stability.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Stability of the object's composition
If the stand is made visible and protrudes to the front of the display panel, then the structural support and stability are improved, but the aesthetic appearance deteriorates and the floating effect is lost
Solution Approach 1:
A transparent glass panel is introduced as an intermediary element between the stand and the viewer. The stand remains structurally functional while the transparent panel mediates its visibility, allowing light to pass through and creating the illusion that the display panel floats in air without compromising support stability
Solution Approach 2:
The stand is covered with a transparent or translucent material that changes its optical properties. When viewed from the front, the transparency minimizes visual recognition of the stand structure, while the material maintains structural integrity and support function
2Shape
If the stand is hidden behind the glass cover, then the aesthetic appearance and floating effect are improved, but the stand visibility and structural clarity worsen
Solution Approach 1:
The stand is covered with a transparent glass panel that changes its visual presence based on lighting conditions and viewing angles. The transparency allows the stand to remain visible for structural clarity while minimizing its visual impact to maintain aesthetic appearance
3Shape
If the deco part extends to the lower end adjacent to the floor surface, then the floating effect is improved, but the risk of sliding on inclined surfaces increases
Solution Approach 1:
The glass panel has different properties at different locations: the upper portion remains transparent to maintain aesthetic appearance and floating effect, while the lower end adjacent to the floor surface incorporates a non-slip part with increased friction to prevent sliding on inclined surfaces
Solution Approach 2:
The friction coefficient of the glass panel is changed at its lower end by adding a non-slip part. This local parameter change increases grip with the floor surface to prevent sliding while maintaining the overall transparent appearance and floating effect of the display device
