Rotating Power Transfer Member for Tiled Display Alignment
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The installation of tiled display apparatuses is time-consuming due to the need to fix and align multiple display panels and connect power lines to each panel.
Innovation Solution
A display apparatus comprising a display panel supported by a support member with a power transfer member rotatably disposed on a side of the support member, allowing for easy alignment and power transfer between adjacent display panels.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Manufacturing precision
If multiple display panels are fixed to alignment devices and aligned with separate power line connections, then the tiled display apparatus achieves proper alignment and power supply, but the installation time becomes excessively long
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines the alignment function and power transfer function into a single integrated support member. The support member includes both alignment protrusions for positioning display panels and power transfer terminals for electrical connection, eliminating the need for separate alignment devices and power line connections. This integration directly resolves the technical contradiction by reducing installation steps while maintaining alignment precision.
Solution Approach 2:
The support member is designed as a multi-functional component that simultaneously performs alignment and power transfer tasks. By making the support member universal in its functionality, the patent eliminates the need for separate specialized devices, thereby reducing installation time while preserving the precision alignment capability.
2Reliability
If separate power lines are connected to each display panel during installation, then reliable power supply is achieved, but the installation process becomes more complex and time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the power supply function into the alignment support structure. The power transfer terminals are integrated into the support member, which is already positioned during the alignment process. This combination eliminates the need for separate power line installation steps, reducing installation complexity while ensuring reliable power supply through direct terminal connections.
Solution Approach 2:
The power transfer terminals are pre-integrated into the support member during manufacturing, so that when the support member is positioned during installation, the power connection is already prepared and ready for immediate connection. This preliminary preparation of power connections eliminates the need for separate power line installation steps.
3Manufacturing precision
If multiple separate components (alignment devices and power lines) are used for each display panel, then proper alignment and power supply are achieved, but the number of installation steps increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple separate installation components (alignment device and power line connection) into a single integrated support member. This support member simultaneously provides alignment positioning through its protrusions and power transfer through its terminals, reducing the number of installation steps from two separate operations to one unified operation, thereby improving installation efficiency while maintaining alignment precision.
