Rotating Support Pillar Mount for Easier Display Installation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing display mounting devices require complex procedures and multiple steps to securely attach and detach displays, often involving multiple components and surfaces, which can be cumbersome and inefficient.
Innovation Solution
A display mounting device featuring a supporting pillar that can be rotated between parallel and perpendicular orientations to a floor surface, allowing for easy attachment and detachment of displays by collapsing the pillar to the floor for mounting and standing it up for use.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If a display is mounted on a wall using base brackets and hook units, then the display can be securely fixed, but the mounting procedure becomes complex and requires multiple steps
Solution Approach 1:
The mounting device is divided into two main segments: a supporting pillar that provides structural support and a display mounting unit that attaches to the display. This segmentation allows each component to be optimized independently, simplifying the overall mounting procedure while maintaining secure fixation.
Solution Approach 2:
The supporting pillar acts as an intermediary element between the floor surface and the display. Instead of directly mounting the display to wall brackets, the pillar provides a stable base that simplifies the mounting process and ensures secure fixation through its rotatable joint mechanism.
2Reliability
If multiple components are used to securely attach displays, then fixation reliability improves, but the number of parts and mounting steps increases
Solution Approach 1:
The supporting pillar combines multiple functions into a single component: it provides structural support, enables rotation between vertical and horizontal positions, and serves as the mounting base for the display. This merging reduces the total number of components needed while maintaining fixation reliability.
Solution Approach 2:
The supporting pillar is designed as a multi-functional element that can be positioned in different orientations (vertical and horizontal) and serves both as a structural support and a mounting platform. This universality eliminates the need for separate components for different functions, reducing overall part quantity.
3Ease of operation
If the supporting pillar is rotated between parallel and perpendicular orientations, then ease of operation improves, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The supporting pillar incorporates a rotatable joint that allows dynamic repositioning between vertical and horizontal orientations. This dynamic capability enables easy mounting and demounting operations while the joint mechanism is designed to be simple and intuitive, minimizing the increase in device complexity.

AI summary
A display mounting device includes a supporting pillar and a supporting pillar fixture. A display is mounted on the supporting pillar. The supporting pillar fixture is installed on a floor surface and coupled with the supporting pillar. In an extending direction of the supporting pillar, the display is detachably attached to a first end of the supporting pillar, and the supporting pillar fixture is coupled with a second end of the supporting pillar opposite to the first end in a rotatable manner. The supporting pillar fixture includes a rotation support that supports the supporting pillar in a rotatable manner. The rotation support allows for rotation of the supporting pillar within a range of angles between a first state where the extending direction of the supporting pillar is parallel to the floor surface and a second state where the extending direction of the supporting pillar is perpendicular to the floor surface.
