Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Illumination intensity

If Mini LED is used as a backlight source with traditional liquid crystal display panel, then high contrast is achieved, but power consumption efficiency deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
ImprovecontrastVSAvoidpower consumption efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
Illumination intensityVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The backlight system is segmented into multiple independently controllable Mini LED zones along the first and second directions. Each zone can be individually controlled to achieve local dimming, improving contrast while reducing overall power consumption by activating only necessary regions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements dynamic control of Mini LED backlight zones through connection line units that can selectively activate different LED chips based on display content requirements. This dynamic adjustment optimizes power consumption efficiency while maintaining high contrast performance.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

2Illumination intensity

If Mini LED is used as a backlight source, then high contrast is achieved, but backup options for defective light emitting diode chips are limited

Engineering Contradiction:
ImprovecontrastVSAvoidbackup options for defective chips
Core Design Contradiction:
Illumination intensityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent incorporates backup connection line units and redundant electrical contact pairs in advance during manufacturing. When a Mini LED chip becomes defective, the system can pre-switch to backup connection paths without requiring external repair intervention, enhancing reliability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The design allows defective Mini LED chips to be electrically isolated and discarded from the active circuit through the multi-path connection structure. The system recovers functionality by redirecting current through alternative connection line units, maintaining display operation despite chip failures.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #34Discarding and recovering

3Productivity

If multiple electrical contact pairs are arranged in each connection line unit, then bonding yield is enhanced, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvebonding yieldVSAvoidconnection line structure
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

Multiple electrical contact pairs are merged into integrated connection line units that combine multiple functions (power supply, signal transmission, and backup paths) into single structural elements. This merging approach enhances bonding yield while minimizing the increase in overall device complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The connection line units are designed with multi-functionality, serving as both primary electrical connections and backup pathways simultaneously. Each connection line unit can perform multiple roles depending on the operational status of Mini LED chips, reducing the need for separate dedicated backup structures.

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