Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional model display systems lack customization for various sizes, themed environments, and stable wall mounting, and do not provide easy removal or exchangeable features like lighting that match the model theme.

Innovation Solution

A modular wall display system with interchangeable components, including base plates, vertical members, and lighting, allowing for customizable size and design, stable wall mounting, and easy removal, enabling flexible configuration and display of models or memorabilia.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If conventional display cases are used, then storage is provided, but customization for various model sizes and themes is not possible

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecustomization for various model sizes and themesVSAvoiddisplay case structure
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The display case is divided into modular components including base plates of various sizes, vertical members, and interchangeable architectural features. This segmentation allows users to assemble different configurations to match various model sizes and themes without requiring completely different display cases for each model type.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The modular components are designed with standardized connection mechanisms that allow the same base plates and vertical members to serve multiple functions across different display configurations. The interchangeable architectural features can be used with various base plate sizes, providing universal adaptability throughout the system.

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

2Ease of operation

If conventional mounting mechanisms are used, then wall mounting is achieved, but ease of removal and stability are not both provided

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of removalVSAvoidattachment stability
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The mounting mechanism transitions from a permanent fixed state to a removable state through a simple lifting motion. The display case remains stably attached during normal use but can be easily removed by lifting the front edge, providing dynamic adaptability between stability and ease of removal based on operational needs.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

3Adaptability or versatility

If conventional display cases are used, then a fixed display area is provided, but accommodation of larger displayed works or expansion is not possible

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveexpansion capabilityVSAvoidmodular assembly system
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The display case is constructed from multiple modular base plates and vertical members that can be assembled in various combinations. Users can start with a small configuration and expand by adding additional modules, allowing the display area to grow with the collection without requiring a completely different display case.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

4Adaptability or versatility

If conventional display cases are used, then basic storage is provided, but exchangeable features like lighting or architectural features that match the model theme are not available

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvethemed environmental customizationVSAvoidinterchangeable components system
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

Architectural features such as lighting elements, arches, and decorative components are designed to be interchangeable and can be selectively applied to specific areas of the display case. This allows users to customize local regions to match specific model themes while leaving other areas in their basic configuration, providing themed environmental customization without requiring complete redesign of the entire display case.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

AI summary

A modular wall display system includes a first base plate having a model display surface on a proximal base plate side and a display mounting surface on a distal base plate side. The display system further includes a front vertical member set removably disposed on the proximal base plate side, a rear vertical member set removably disposed on the proximal base plate side, a horizontal side beam set removably disposed in connection with the front vertical member set and the rear vertical member set, a horizontal front beam member removably disposed in connection with the front vertical member set, and a wall anchor module set rigidly disposed to the display mounting surface on the distal base plate side, the wall anchor module set comprising removable a locking surface configured to removably attach to a wall mountable bracket cleat set. The modular wall display system is expandable and wall hangable.
