Movable Shaft Bracket for Flexible Display Positioning
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional notebook computer brackets restrict the movement of the display shell, preventing it from being raised or moved horizontally, which limits user convenience and experience.
Innovation Solution
A bracket system with movable shafts along tracks, allowing the display shell to adjust vertically and horizontally, using sawtooth structures for precise positioning and rotation, enabling the shell to be aligned with the user's eye plane for optimal viewing.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If both upper and lower shafts are fixed on the shell, then the bracket structure is stable, but the first shell cannot be raised up or moved horizontally when placed in lower or remote locations
Solution Approach 1:
The patent transforms the fixed shaft configuration into a dynamic system where the first shaft can slide along the first track and the second shaft can slide along the second track. This allows the bracket to adapt its structure dynamically, enabling the first shell to be raised up or moved horizontally while maintaining stability through the track-guided movement mechanism.
2Adaptability or versatility
If both upper and lower shafts are fixed on the shell, then the bracket structure is simple, but the user experience is degraded due to limited shell movement capability
Solution Approach 1:
The patent divides the bracket into separate functional components: the first shaft connected to the first shell, the second shaft connected to the second shell, and the tracks providing guidance. This segmentation allows each component to perform its specific function independently while working together to achieve versatile shell positioning without creating an overly complex integrated system.
3Ease of operation
If the first shell is fixed in position, then the structure is stable, but the display cannot be aligned with the user's eye plane for optimal viewing
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces the tracks as intermediary elements that guide the movement of the shafts. The first track guides the first shaft's movement to control the vertical position of the first shell, while the second track guides the second shaft's movement to control the horizontal position. This intermediary mechanism enables precise positioning for optimal viewing without requiring a complex direct control system.
