Existing liquid-crystal display devices face challenges with heat dissipation and image quality due to potential light interference between the transparent heat-transfer member and the liquid-crystal panel, which affects the uniformity and clarity of the display.
Innovation Solution
Incorporating a light-diffusion structure between the liquid-crystal panel and the heat-transfer member, which prevents close contact and reduces light interference, while maintaining effective heat dissipation through a heat sink and heat-transmissive materials.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Temperature
If the transparent member contacts the transmissive surface of the liquid-crystal panel for heat transfer, then heat dissipation is improved, but light interference occurs causing decreased image quality
Solution Approach 1:
A light-diffusion structure is introduced as an intermediary component between the transparent heat-transfer member and the liquid-crystal panel. This mediator prevents direct contact between the two components, eliminating light interference while maintaining thermal conduction through the intermediary structure.
2Temperature
If the transparent member contacts the transmissive surface for heat transfer, then thermal conductivity is improved, but uniformity of light transmission deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The light-diffusion structure serves as a mediator that diffuses light while allowing thermal conduction. This intermediary component ensures uniform light transmission by scattering light rays, preventing direct contact between the transparent member and liquid-crystal panel, while maintaining the heat transfer function.
