Integrated Iron Frame for Thin Display Modules
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
In mobile communication and Pad-typed products, the existing display modules with both rubber and iron frames, along with a backplane, result in overlapping structural functions, which hinder thin product designs and increase costs.
Innovation Solution
An iron frame with distinct upper and lower surfaces, where the upper surface contains a display panel, optical film, and light guide plate, and the lower surface houses electronic components, including a battery and processor, with step portions to secure the display panel and shading tape for adhesion, reducing the need for a glue frame and backplane.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Strength
If a rubber frame and an iron frame are used simultaneously with a backplane, then structural strength is improved, but device complexity and cost increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the functions of the rubber frame, iron frame, and backplane into a single integrated iron frame structure. The iron frame simultaneously provides structural support, houses electronic components in its lower surface, and secures the display panel through step portions, eliminating the need for separate rubber frame and backplane components.
Solution Approach 2:
The iron frame is designed as a multi-functional component that performs multiple roles: it provides structural strength, accommodates electronic components (battery, processor) in containers on its lower surface, and secures the display panel assembly through step portions on its upper surface. This universal design replaces multiple specialized components.
