Modular Accommodation Member for Display Panels
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current display apparatus manufacturing processes are costly due to the complexity and variability in accommodating display panels and backlight units of different sizes within a standardized chassis structure.
Innovation Solution
A modular accommodation member with adjustable side surfaces and a bottom part, featuring variable hole patterns and connection mechanisms, allows for customizable assembly to fit various display panel and backlight unit sizes, reducing manufacturing costs by using prefabricated parts that can be assembled in different configurations.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Device complexity
If a standardized chassis structure is used to accommodate display panels and backlight units, then manufacturing process simplicity is improved, but manufacturing cost increases due to complexity and variability in accommodating different sizes
Solution Approach 1:
The chassis is divided into multiple side surface parts (first side surface parts and second side surface parts) that can be selectively assembled. The bottom part includes multiple bottom holes arranged in different rows, and side surface parts include corresponding side surface holes that align with specific bottom holes based on the size of the display panel and backlight unit. This segmentation allows a single standardized chassis design to accommodate various component sizes through selective assembly configurations.
2Ease of manufacture
If standardized components are used to reduce manufacturing cost, then manufacturing cost is reduced, but adaptability to different sizes decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The chassis side surface parts are designed with universal functionality to accommodate different sizes of display panels and backlight units. The bottom part includes multiple bottom holes (first bottom holes and second bottom holes) arranged in different rows, and the side surface parts include corresponding holes that can align with different bottom holes depending on the component size. This universal design allows the same standardized components to be adapted to various sizes through different assembly configurations, maintaining both cost-effectiveness and size flexibility.

AI summary
A display apparatus includes a display panel, a backlight unit, and an accommodation member for accommodating the display panel and the backlight unit. The accommodation member includes a bottom part defining a bottom surface of the accommodation member, and a plurality of side surface parts which is connected to the bottom part and defines side surfaces of the accommodation member, in which a position where the side surface parts are connected to the bottom part varies based on sizes of the display panel and the backlight unit.
