Solution Overview

Problem

Existing display devices lack a mechanism to accommodate peripherals at the rear without exposing them at the front surface and minimize the distance between the device and the wall.

Innovation Solution

A display device design featuring a bracket with a plate and shelf structure that is detachably coupled to the back cover, allowing peripherals to be accommodated at the rear while minimizing exposure at the front and reducing the distance to the wall.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If a bracket is added to accommodate peripherals at the rear of the display device, then peripheral storage capability is improved, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveperipheral storage capabilityVSAvoidbracket structure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The bracket is divided into multiple independent components: a main body portion, a shelf portion, and a fastening member. These segmented parts can be separately manufactured and assembled, reducing overall complexity while maintaining peripheral storage functionality.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The bracket is designed with universal applicability by incorporating a detachable fastening member that can be coupled to standard mounting holes in various back covers. The shelf portion can accommodate different peripheral devices, making the bracket multi-functional and adaptable to different usage scenarios.

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

2Volume of stationary object

If the bracket is designed to extend forward from the back cover, then peripheral accommodation space is improved, but the distance to the wall increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveperipheral accommodation spaceVSAvoiddistance to wall
Core Design Contradiction:
Volume of stationary objectVSLength of moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The bracket utilizes the depth dimension by extending forward from the back cover, creating vertical storage space without increasing the horizontal footprint. This allows peripherals to be accommodated in the depth direction, minimizing the distance to the wall while maximizing storage volume.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

Solution Approach 2:

The shelf portion is nested within the overall bracket structure, extending forward in a compact manner. This nested design allows efficient use of space by organizing components in layers, providing peripheral accommodation without excessive protrusion from the back cover.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #7Nested doll (Nesting)

3Ease of operation

If the bracket is made detachably coupled to the back cover, then ease of installation and removal is improved, but connection reliability may worsen

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinstallation and removal convenienceVSAvoidconnection stability
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The bracket employs a dynamic coupling system with a detachable fastening member that can be easily inserted and removed from mounting holes. This dynamic design allows users to install or remove the bracket as needed while maintaining stable connection during use through proper mechanical engagement.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The fastening member is designed as a simple, easily replaceable component that can be quickly installed and removed without specialized tools. This approach prioritizes ease of operation, allowing users to detach and reattach the bracket frequently if needed, with the understanding that the connection is intended to be temporary or semi-permanent rather than permanent.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #27Cheap short-living objects (Disposable)
