Rear structure for display panel
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Large display panels require a strong and lightweight structure to support their weight, and a design that efficiently utilizes the reduced interior space for housing electronic components, which is challenging due to the thinner nature of LCD panels compared to CRT panels.
Innovation Solution
A rear structure with a rib design comprising horizontal and vertical bars, blocks, and a support frame that strengthens the structure without increasing weight, forming interior spaces for electronic components, and a wall mount kit for secure attachment.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Area of moving object
If the display panel size is increased to 50 inches or larger, then the display capability is improved, but the weight increases requiring stronger support structures
Solution Approach 1:
The rear cover is segmented into multiple rib structures (horizontal bars, vertical bars, and blocks) that distribute the weight support function across multiple elements rather than relying on a single heavy frame, achieving both strength and weight reduction
2Length of moving object
If LCD panels are used instead of CRD panels, then the thickness is reduced and space is saved, but the interior space for electronic components is significantly decreased
Solution Approach 1:
The rib structure utilizes the depth dimension (distance from panel rear surface) to create multiple interior spaces between the ribs and the panel, effectively increasing component housing volume without increasing panel thickness
3Volume of stationary object
If the interior space between frame and LCD panel is reduced, then the overall device size is minimized, but the arrangement of electronic components becomes difficult
Solution Approach 1:
The rib structure divides the limited interior space into multiple organized compartments and sections, creating distinct areas for different electronic components and wires, which simplifies component arrangement and management despite the reduced overall volume
4Strength
If a strong support structure is added to handle the weight of large display panels, then the structural integrity is improved, but the weight of the support structure increases
Solution Approach 1:
The support function is segmented across multiple ribs (horizontal and vertical bars with blocks) that work together to distribute and bear the panel weight, achieving high structural strength without requiring a single heavy support element
Solution Approach 2:
The rear cover combines multiple rib structure elements (horizontal bars, vertical bars, blocks) into a composite framework that provides enhanced strength-to-weight ratio compared to solid monolithic structures
