Solution Overview

Problem

Traditional glued advertising panels are cumbersome, require significant physical strength and dexterity, pose health and environmental risks due to glue splashes, and are not easily replaceable or removable, with alternative digital solutions being expensive and fragile.

Innovation Solution

A system comprising a protective panel with a flexible transparent tarpaulin and fixing means that allows for easy insertion and removal of posters without glue, using a device with a fastening member, control device, and force transmission member for vertical displacement, enabling quick and safe installation/uninstallation of posters.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If traditional glued-on posters are used, then posters can be displayed on advertising panels, but the installation process requires significant physical strength and skill, poses health and environmental risks, and is cumbersome

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of poster installationVSAvoidhealth and environmental risks from glue
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The invention extracts and eliminates the harmful adhesive substance from the poster installation system. Instead of using glue to attach posters, the system uses a protective panel with an opening that allows posters to be inserted and held in place by the panel structure itself, removing the need for adhesive and its associated health and environmental risks

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The protective panel serves as an intermediary element between the advertising panel and the poster. It provides a structured opening that facilitates easy poster insertion and removal while protecting the poster from weather, eliminating the need for direct adhesive bonding between the poster and advertising panel

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Productivity

If traditional glued-on posters are used, then posters can be displayed on advertising panels, but the installation process is arduous and time-consuming

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveposter installation speedVSAvoidtime required for poster installation
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments the advertising panel into a protective panel with a specific opening, separating the poster insertion function from the display function. This segmentation allows posters to be quickly inserted through the opening without the time-consuming process of applying adhesive, significantly improving installation productivity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The protective panel is pre-installed on the advertising panel with an opening positioned for easy access. This preliminary preparation eliminates the need for on-site adhesive application and drying time, allowing posters to be rapidly installed by simply inserting them through the pre-positioned opening

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Adaptability or versatility

If traditional glued-on posters are used, then posters can be displayed on advertising panels, but posters are difficult to replace and remove

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of poster replacementVSAvoidcomplexity of installation process
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system transitions from a static adhesive-bonded poster system to a dynamic insertion/removal system. The protective panel's opening allows posters to be easily inserted and removed by simply moving them through the opening, making poster replacement highly adaptable and reversible without complex detachment processes

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

4Reliability

If digital display signs are used instead of glued-on posters, then modern advertising display is achieved, but the cost is high and the system is fragile

Engineering Contradiction:
Improverobustness of advertising systemVSAvoidcost of advertising system
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSEase of manufacture

Solution Approach 1:

The system uses inexpensive, replaceable posters instead of expensive digital display systems. The protective panel provides durability and weather resistance, while the posters themselves can be easily replaced when worn or outdated, offering a cost-effective alternative to fragile and expensive digital signage

Inventive Principle:
Principle #27Cheap short-living objects (Disposable)
