Movable Secondary Screen for Adaptable Display Forms
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional display devices, such as watches and wristbands, have fixed display shapes, limiting user experience and functionality.
Innovation Solution
A display device with a main screen and a secondary screen, driven by a first drive assembly, allowing the size and/or shape of the display area to be changed by moving the screens, enabling multiple forms and improved user interaction.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the display screen shape is kept fixed, then the device structure is simple, but the user experience is limited and forms are single
Solution Approach 1:
The display screen is divided into a main screen and a secondary screen that can be independently positioned and controlled, allowing different display configurations (full display, partial display, side-by-side, overlapping) to achieve diverse forms while maintaining a relatively simple overall structure
Solution Approach 2:
The secondary screen is made movable through a drive assembly that enables it to shift between different positions and orientations, transforming the static display into a dynamic one that can adapt to various usage scenarios without requiring multiple separate devices
2Ease of operation
If manual handling of screens is required, then the device structure is simple, but user operation difficulty increases and device lifespan decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The drive assembly automatically controls the movement of the secondary screen without requiring manual handling by the user, enabling the system to adjust its own configuration based on operational needs, thereby reducing user effort while extending device lifespan through minimized manual interference
