Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a conventional support frame is used, then the display device can be positioned in an upright or slightly tilted manner, but the support frame cannot provide flexible operating angles for advanced display technologies
Solution Approach 1:
The support frame is divided into multiple independent modules: a pivot seat module mounted on the backside, a first support module coupled to the pivot seat, and a second support module coupled to the pivot seat. Each module can independently pivot about its own axis, enabling the display device to achieve multiple operating angles (upright, tilted, lying positions) through coordinated movement of these segmented components.
Solution Approach 2:
The support frame employs dynamic pivot mechanisms that allow the support modules to rotate relative to the pivot seat about orthogonal axes. This dynamic capability enables the display device to transition between fixed positions (upright, tilted, lying) and potentially intermediate angles, providing adaptability for various display technologies while maintaining structural integrity through controlled rotational degrees of freedom.
2Adaptability or versatility
If the support frame structure is simplified, then manufacturing is easier, but the ability to provide multiple operating angles is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
By segmenting the support frame into modular components (pivot seat module, first support module, second support module), each with its own pivot mechanism, the design achieves multiple operating angles through standardized rotational joints rather than complex custom mechanisms. This modular segmentation allows for easier manufacturing and assembly of individual modules while achieving sophisticated overall functionality when assembled.

Implementation Method 1
The pivot seat module is adapted to be mounted on the backside of the display device for rotation relative to the display device about a first axis passing through the display device
Implementation Method 2
The second support module is coupled to the pivot seat module, is pivotable relative to the pivot seat module about a second axis that is orthogonal to the first axis

AI summary
A support frame is adapted to provide support to a display device, and includes a pivot seat module, a first support module and a second support module. The pivot seat module is adapted to be mounted to the display device for rotation relative to the display device about a first axis passing through the display device. The first support module is coupled to the pivot seat module, and is disposed to form an angle with a backside of the display device for supporting the display device at a substantially upright position. The second support module is coupled to the pivot seat module, is pivotable relative to the pivot seat module about a second axis that is orthogonal to the first axis, and cooperates with the first support module to support the display device at a lying position.
