Description

Display with buffer structure

The invention relates to a display, in particular to a display with a buffer structure.

With the advancement of technology, the existing display panels are not only getting bigger and bigger in size, but also thinner and thinner. In order to prevent the display panel from being broken and damaged due to the impact of the reaction force during packing or transportation, rubber pads are usually installed around the panel to prevent the panel from cracking. However, the rubber cushion will have poor shock absorption effect due to the impact of poor resilience after deformation under force. In addition, the process of adhering the rubber cushion to the outer frame of the display during the production of the display will not only increase the cost of parts required for installation, but also increase the time cost required for construction.

Therefore, the object of the present invention is to provide a display with a cushioning structure that has a good shock-absorbing effect and can reduce production costs.

Therefore, the display with buffer structure of the present invention includes a display body, a panel and at least one buffer structure.

The display body includes an outer frame. The outer frame defines a forward accommodating space and has a side frame body. The panel is installed in the accommodating space. The buffer structure is located between the panel and the side frame, and includes two elastic arms extending obliquely from the inner side of the side frame to the panel, and one two The ends are respectively connected to the supporting pieces of the elastic arms. Each elastic arm has a first end adjacent to the side frame, and a second end connected to the supporting member. The supporting member has a supporting surface which is supported against the outer edge of the panel. The elastic arms can compress and rebound with the shaking of the panel, so as to buffer the shaking impulse of the panel.

In some implementation aspects, the display with a buffer structure includes several buffer structures. The buffer structures are arranged at intervals on the bottom of the outer frame, and the supporting surfaces of the buffer structures are supported against the bottom edge of the panel. When the display with the buffer structure is erected, the buffer structures can buffer the impact of shaking in the vertical direction and prevent the bottom edge of the panel from colliding with the outer frame.

In some embodiments, the elastic arms respectively extend obliquely from the side frame body, so that the distance between the first ends is greater than the distance between the second ends.

In some implementation aspects, the display with buffer structure further includes a fixing unit. The fixing unit is installed in the accommodating space, and includes a base connected with the side frame body, and a support member propped against the rear side of the panel. The support is used to fix the position of the panel. The buffer structure is connected to the base and integrally formed with the fixing unit.

The effect of the present invention is that: the elastic arms can compress and rebound with the shaking of the panel to buffer the shaking momentum of the panel, and the shock-absorbing effect of the buffer structures can be improved, so that the panel can be used during packaging and transportation. It is not easy to shake and break during the process. In addition, the buffer structures and the fixing unit are integrally formed, so that the fixing unit and the buffer structures can be directly installed in the outer frame during the assembly process of the display with the buffer structure, In order to save the step of adhering the rubber cushion, and at the same time save the material cost of purchasing the rubber cushion, the purpose of reducing the production cost is achieved.

Other features and effects of the present invention will be clearly presented in the implementation manner with reference to the drawings, wherein: Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram illustrating an embodiment of the display with a buffer structure of the present invention; Fig. 2 is an incomplete Partial perspective view, illustrating this embodiment, and omitting one of the back cover of this embodiment; Fig. 3 is an incomplete partial perspective exploded view, illustrating this embodiment, and omitting this back cover; The cross-sectional view of line IV-IV illustrates the connection relationship between an outer frame, a panel, a buffer structure and the back cover in this embodiment.

Referring to FIG. 1 to FIG. 4 , it is an embodiment of the display with buffer structure of the present invention. First define the directional terms for what is described here. In FIG. 1 , what is located in front of the display with buffer structure is defined as "rear side", and what is located behind the display with buffer structure is defined as "front side". In FIG. 4 , the left side of the display with the buffer structure is defined as the "rear side", and the side located at the right of the display with the buffer structure is defined as the "front side". The display with buffer structure includes a display body 1, a panel 2 installed in the display body 1, at least one buffer structure 3 installed in the display body 1 and against the panel 2 (herein five example), and a fixing unit 4 installed in the display body 1 and connected to the buffer structures 3.

The display body 1 is provided with components not shown in the figure such as a speaker module and a control circuit module, and includes an outer frame 11 . The outer frame 11 defines an accommodating space 111 extending through the front and rear sides, and has a side frame body 112 . In this embodiment, the side frame body 112 is located at the bottom of the outer frame 11 , but not limited thereto, and the side frame body 112 may also be located at any side of the outer frame 11 .

The panel 2 is installed in the accommodating space 111 and aligned with the front opening of the accommodating space 111 for the user to watch the display screen of the panel 2 . In addition, the panel 2 is provided with glass, liquid crystal, light-emitting elements, and other members not shown in the figure. As shown in FIG. 2 , the fixing unit 4 is installed in the accommodating space 111 , and includes a base 41 connected to the side frame body 112 , and a supporting member 42 supported against the rear side of the panel 2 . The supporting member 42 and the front side portion of the side frame body 112 are supported against two opposite surfaces of the panel 2 for fixing the position of the panel 2 so that the panel 2 is erected.

Referring to FIGS. 2 to 4 , the buffer structures 3 are located between the panel 2 and the side frame 112 . Each buffer structure 3 includes two elastic arms 31 extending obliquely from the base 41 toward the panel 2 , and a support member 32 connected to the elastic arms 31 at both ends. Each elastic arm 31 has a first end portion 311 connected to the base 41 and a second end portion 312 connected to the supporting member 32 . The supporting member 32 has a supporting surface 321 supporting against the outer edge of the panel 2 . The elastic arms 31 can compress and rebound with the shaking of the panel 2 to buffer the shaking force of the panel 2 . More specifically, when the display with buffer structure is shaken and the panel 2 is forced to move toward the side frame body 112, the panel 2 can be pressed against the supporting surface 321, so that the first elastic arms 31 The two ends 312 move toward the side frame body 112 as the supporting member 32 is displaced. When the display with the buffer structure is not shaken, each elastic arm 31 rebounds so that each second end 312 reaches the side frame 112. The distance of the side frame body 112 is greater than the distance from each second end 312 to the side frame body 112 when the display with the buffer structure shakes, so that the buffer structures 3 can offset the shaking momentum of the panel 2 to avoid the The panel 2 is broken due to shaking when the display with the buffer structure is loaded into the carton or transported, so as to achieve the effect of shock absorption. In this embodiment, the elastic arms 31 extend obliquely from the side frame body 112, so that the distance between the first end portions 311 is greater than the distance between the second end portions 312, so that the After being compressed and rebounded, the elastic arms 31 can return to their original positions without being easily deformed or damaged. In addition, as shown in FIG. 3 , the buffer structures 3 are connected to the base 41 of the fixing unit 4 and formed integrally with the fixing unit 4 . For example, the fixing unit 4 and the cushioning structures 3 are made of plastic material, and the combination components of the fixing unit 4 and the buffering structures 3 are simultaneously fabricated through one injection molding process. In this way, when assembling the display with the cushioning structure, the combination member of the fixing unit 4 and the cushioning structures 3 can be directly installed on the side frame body 112 of the outer frame 11 without the need to place the fixing unit 4 one by one. The buffer structure 3 is disposed on the base 41 to reduce the production time of assembling the display with the buffer structure.

On the other hand, the base 41 is connected to the side frame body 112 located at the bottom of the outer frame 11 , and the buffer structures 3 are mounted on the base 41 at intervals. Moreover, the supporting surfaces 321 of the buffer structures 3 are supported against the bottom edge of the panel 2 . When the display with the buffer structure is erected, the buffer structures 3 can buffer the shaking force in the vertical direction and prevent the bottom edge of the panel 2 from colliding with the outer frame 11 . In other words, when the display with the cushioning structure falls and shakes, the panel 2 is forced to collide downwards, and the panel 2 can be pressed against the supporting surfaces 321, so that the second elastic arms 31 The end portion 312 moves downward according to the corresponding displacement of the supporting member 32 , so as to prevent the panel 2 from colliding with the outer frame 11 and being broken. However, the buffer structures 3 can also be located between the panel 2 and at least one side of the frame 11 . That is to say, each elastic arm 31 extends obliquely toward the panel 2 from the top side or left and right sides of the outer frame 11, so as to buffer the shaking momentum of the panel 2 upward or towards the left and right directions, so as to enhance the cushioning The structure displays the shock absorption effect in different directions.

When assembling, first install the combination member of the fixing unit 4 and the buffer structures 3 on the outer The side frame body 112 of the frame 11. Next, the panel 2 is placed above the buffer structures 3 and leans against the supporting surfaces 321 . Finally, install the back cover 12 on the outer frame 11, and cover the rear opening of the accommodating space 111, and connect the back cover 12, the base 41 and the outer frame through joints (such as screws). 11 bonding, the assembly process of the display with the buffer structure can be completed, and the panel 2 can achieve the effect of shock absorption through the buffer structures 3 .

To sum up, the elastic arms 31 can compress and rebound with the shaking of the panel 2 to buffer the shaking momentum of the panel 2, and the shock-absorbing effect of the buffer structures 3 can be improved, so that the panel 2 can It is not easy to shake and break during packaging and transportation. In addition, the buffer structures 3 and the fixing unit 4 are integrally formed, so that the fixing unit 4 and the buffer structures 3 can be directly installed on the display in the process of assembling the display with the buffer structure. In the outer frame 11, the step of adhering the rubber cushion is omitted, and at the same time, the material cost of additionally purchasing the rubber cushion is saved, so as to achieve the purpose of reducing the production cost, so the purpose of the present invention can indeed be achieved.

But the above-mentioned ones are only embodiments of the present invention, and should not limit the scope of the present invention. All simple equivalent changes and modifications made according to the patent scope of the present invention and the content of the patent specification are still within the scope of the present invention.
