Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If a single-function support component is used, then the structure is simple, but the display device cannot be placed or supported in various configurations

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesupport configuration versatilityVSAvoidbracket structure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The bracket is designed with dual functionality: it can both hang display devices on walls and place them on surfaces. The connecting part includes both hanging fixing holes and support fixing holes, allowing the same bracket structure to perform multiple support functions without requiring separate components for each mode.

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

Solution Approach 2:

The bracket is divided into distinct functional parts: a support arm, a limiting part, and a connecting part with separate hanging fixing holes and support fixing holes. This segmentation allows each part to perform its specific function while maintaining overall structural simplicity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Adaptability or versatility

If multiple separate connecting members are used for hanging and placing, then each function is optimized, but the device complexity and installation requirements increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemounting mode flexibilityVSAvoidinstallation complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSEase of manufacture

Solution Approach 1:

The hanging fixing holes and support fixing holes are integrated into a single connecting part of the bracket. This merging eliminates the need for separate connecting members for hanging and placing modes, reducing the number of parts, simplifying installation, and lowering manufacturing complexity while maintaining full functional versatility.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

3Adaptability or versatility

If fixed-length support arms are used, then the manufacturing is simple, but the adjustability of display position and orientation is limited

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedisplay position adjustabilityVSAvoidsupport arm structure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The support arm is designed as a telescopic structure that can extend and retract to different lengths. This dynamic capability allows the display device to be positioned at various distances from the wall and adjusted to different orientations, providing flexibility without requiring multiple fixed-length arms of different sizes.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics
