Solution Overview

Problem

The assembly of common display devices is complex due to multiple parts, making the process inconvenient and costly, and requires precise sizing of components, which complicates product development.

Innovation Solution

The back plate is integrally formed with a joining flange to directly connect the display screen, reducing the need for additional frames and simplifying assembly, while ensuring dimensional accuracy for quality.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Stability of the object's composition

If the display module uses multiple separate parts (back plate, middle frame, front frame), then the structural stability is improved, but the assembly complexity increases and labor costs increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvestructural stabilityVSAvoidassembly complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Stability of the object's compositionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent combines the back plate and middle frame into an integrated back assembly, where the back plate serves both as the rear cover and the supporting frame structure. This integration eliminates the need for separate middle frame components and reduces the number of assembly steps while maintaining structural stability through the unified design.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

2Stability of the object's composition

If the display module uses multiple separate parts, then the structural stability is improved, but the labor costs increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvestructural stabilityVSAvoidlabor costs
Core Design Contradiction:
Stability of the object's compositionVSEase of manufacture

Solution Approach 1:

By integrating the back plate and middle frame into a single back assembly, the patent reduces the number of components that need to be manually assembled. This integration directly reduces labor costs associated with assembly operations while maintaining the structural stability provided by the combined back plate and frame structure.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

3Stability of the object's composition

If the back plate is designed to fit with middle frame and front frame, then the structural stability is improved, but the product development complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvestructural stabilityVSAvoidproduct development complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Stability of the object's compositionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent eliminates the need for complex fitting relationships between back plate, middle frame, and front frame by integrating the back plate and middle frame into a unified back assembly. This reduces product development complexity by removing the need to coordinate dimensions and tolerances across multiple separate components while maintaining structural stability through the integrated design.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

AI summary

Disclosed are a display module and a television, the display module comprising: a back plate, comprising a back plate body and a side wall which are integrally formed, the back plate body and the side wall together defining a mounting space, a free end of the side wall being folded so as to form a joining folded edge which extends in parallel with the back plate body; a display screen, an edge of an inside surface of the display screen being joined and fixed to an outer surface of the joining folded edge; an optical film set, mounted in the mounting space. The present technical solution can increase the ease of product assembly.
