Solution Overview

Problem

Vehicle-mounted display terminals are prone to damage due to direct transmission of vibrations, leading to issues like bright lines, dark lines, dark spots, and mechanical defects in a long-term vibration and impact environment.

Innovation Solution

A terminal mounting support system comprising a first and second support with a buffer material layer between them, which accommodates a fixing member and includes connection structures to securely attach the terminal, effectively absorbing and decomposing vibration forces.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If the display terminal is directly fixed using a mounting rod, then the installation is simple and secure, but the vibration is directly transmitted to the terminal causing damage

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveterminal durabilityVSAvoidmounting structure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces a mounting support as an intermediary component between the mounting rod and the display terminal. This mounting support includes a buffer material layer that absorbs and attenuates vibration, preventing direct transmission to the terminal while maintaining secure installation. The mounting support acts as a mediator that resolves the contradiction by adding a protective intermediate layer.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent applies beforehand cushioning by incorporating a buffer material layer within the mounting support structure. This buffer layer is pre-positioned to absorb vibrations before they reach the display terminal, providing protective cushioning in advance. The buffer material layer is configured to deform under vibration, dissipating energy before it can damage the terminal.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #11Beforehand cushioning (Prior cushioning)

2Object-affected harmful factors

If a buffer material layer is added to absorb vibration, then the terminal protection is improved, but the mounting structure becomes more complex

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevibration transmissionVSAvoidmounting structure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Object-affected harmful factorsVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges the buffer material layer with the mounting support structure by positioning the buffer layer between the first and second supports. This integration combines the vibration-absorbing function with the structural support function in a single unified component, reducing overall complexity compared to adding a separate buffer system.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The buffer material layer is nested within the mounting support structure, specifically positioned between the first support (connected to the mounting rod) and the second support (connected to the terminal). This nested arrangement allows the buffer layer to be contained within the existing structural framework, minimizing additional complexity while maximizing vibration protection.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #7Nested doll (Nesting)
