Innovation Solution

The display apparatus features a detachable circuit case that can be accessed from both the front and rear, utilizing magnetic attraction and fastening mechanisms for secure mounting and detachment, allowing for easy installation and maintenance of display modules and circuit cases.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If the circuit case is fixed to the cabinet for stable operation, then reliability is improved, but ease of repair deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvestable operationVSAvoidaccessibility of circuit case
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSEase of repair

Solution Approach 1:

The circuit case is divided into separate detachable modules that can be independently accessed from the front of the cabinet. Each circuit case is segmented into removable units connected via connection brackets, allowing maintenance personnel to access and repair circuit components without dismantling the entire cabinet structure.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

Connection brackets serve as intermediary components between the cabinet and circuit cases. These brackets provide a detachable coupling mechanism that maintains stable operation when connected but allows easy separation for repair. The brackets act as mediators that enable both reliable connection and convenient disconnection.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Ease of repair

If the circuit case is made detachable for easy maintenance, then ease of repair is improved, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedetachability of circuit caseVSAvoidmounting structure
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of repairVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The connection brackets are designed with universal functionality to serve multiple purposes: providing structural support, enabling detachable connection, and facilitating alignment during assembly. This multi-functionality reduces the need for separate specialized components, thereby limiting the increase in device complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

Solution Approach 2:

The circuit cases are nested within the cabinet structure through the connection brackets, which are themselves nested between the cabinet frame and the circuit case assemblies. This nesting arrangement allows the detachable components to be integrated into the existing cabinet architecture without requiring entirely separate mounting systems.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #7Nested doll (Nesting)

3Ease of operation

If multiple access points are provided for circuit case detachment, then ease of operation is improved, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveaccessibility from front and rearVSAvoidmounting structure
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The connection brackets are asymmetrically designed with different engagement features at the front and rear of the cabinet. The front access utilizes quick-release latches that can be operated from the front side, while the rear access employs corresponding engagement slots. This asymmetric design enables multi-directional access without requiring identical complex mechanisms at both ends.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #4Asymmetry
