Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional slide-type electronic devices face limitations in achieving a stable ground design due to separate structures, which affects electromagnetic interference (EMI) performance and return current path stability.
Innovation Solution
An electronic device with a slide-type design that includes a main body, guide rail, driving device, guide structure, and connector structure, allowing for rotational movement and forming an electrical connection between the guide and connector structures to secure a stable ground area and improve EMI performance without additional components.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a slide-type electronic device uses two separate structures for sliding operation, then the device achieves sliding functionality, but the ground design becomes unstable and EMI performance deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the ground connection function with the sliding mechanism by making the guide structure and connector structure electrically connected through their contacting surfaces. This integration ensures that the ground connection is automatically established and maintained during sliding operations, resolving the contradiction between sliding functionality and ground stability without requiring separate ground components.
Solution Approach 2:
The guide structure and connector structure serve dual functions: they enable sliding movement while simultaneously providing electrical ground connection. The contacting surfaces between these structures act as both mechanical guides and electrical pathways, allowing the same structural elements to fulfill multiple roles and improve ground stability without adding separate components.
2Reliability
If additional components are added to improve ground design in slide-type devices, then ground stability improves, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines the ground connection function with existing sliding components (guide structure and connector structure). By making these structures electrically connected through their contacting surfaces, the invention achieves stable ground design without adding separate ground components, connectors, or pathways, thus avoiding increased device complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The guide structure and connector structure automatically establish and maintain their own electrical ground connection through their inherent contacting surfaces during sliding operations. This self-service mechanism eliminates the need for additional ground management components or complex ground design interventions.
