example 1

[0059] figure 2 A connection diagram of the scalable modular television system provided by the present invention described in Example 1 is shown, mainly illustrating the connection of the main module 201 .

[0060] Such as figure 2 As shown, the scalable modular television system includes a main module 2002 as a control center, and modules 1-2001, 2-2003 and 4-2005. The main module 2002 is directly connected with module 1-2001, module 2-2003 and module 4-2005, forming three branches. For the branch of module 1-2001, module 1-2001 is the end point of the connecting branch. For the branch of module 2-2003, where module 2-2003 and module 7-2008 are connected in series. For the branch circuit of the module 4-2005, the module 5-2006 and the module 6-2007 are connected in parallel on the module 4-2005; here, the module 4-2005 is used as a connected node.

[0063] image 3 It shows the connection schematic diagram of the scalable modular television system provided by the present invention described in Example 2, mainly illustrating the data transmission mode and module control method using the TCP / IP communication technology in the Ethernet technology.

[0064] This example focuses on how to perform data transmission between modules in the system and how the main module 3002 can control other modules 3004-3006, 3001. Such as image 3 As shown, the system includes a main module 3002 and expandable sub-modules 1 / 3 / 4 / 5-3001 / 3004 / 3005 / 3006. As shown in the figure, the TCP / IP technology of the internal Ethernet technology of the system is used between the modules to realize data transmission. In addition, by adopting the hub in the sub-module, the sub-module can be used as a node in the system, so that free connection between each sub-module can be realized.

[0065] Such as image 3 As shown, there are several interface layers on...

[0068] Figure 4 It shows the connection schematic diagram of the expandable modular television system provided by the present invention described in Example 3, mainly illustrating the method of realizing data transmission and module control by using a standard USB port.

[0069] This example focuses on how to transmit data between modules in the system. Such as Figure 4 As shown, the system includes a main module 4002 and expandable sub-modules 3 / 4-4004 / 4005. Such as Figure 4 As shown, there are several interface layers on the main module 4002, including the OS / Core interface layer, in which the USB chip driver is pre-installed; meanwhile, the sub-module is provided with a USB chip. Therefore, when a new submodule (such as submodule 1-4004) is inserted, the main module 301 recognizes and drives the USB chip in the submodule 1-4004 through the USB chip driver in the OS / Core interface layer, and the submodule The data of the module 1-4004 is converted into the data recogniz...

Abstract

The invention provides an extendable modular television system, which comprises an independent display module, at least one submodule, a main module and a power supply module, wherein the independent display module is used for fulfilling a main display function; the at least one submodule is used for extending and fulfilling sub-functions except from the main display function in the system; the main module is used for controlling and processing the communication with the independent display module as well as controlling and processing the communication with the at least one sub-module; and the power supply module is used for supplying power to the independent display module, the main module and the at least one sub-module. According to the extendable modular television system disclosed by the invention, other functions can be extended according to specific requirements of a user on the basis of fulfilling the traditional television function, so that the open television system is realized. The extendable sub-module can also be used for realizing the operation and control over the entire system after being authorized. In addition, besides functional extension on the aspects of both hardware and software, the system can also comprise the ultra-thin display module.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a modular system for television, in particular to an expandable modular television system. Background technique [0002] With the development of technology and the improvement of people's living standards, the demand for household electronic equipment such as TVs and PCs is also increasing. Television, as the first electronic device in people's life, bears more demands and needs of people. Therefore, there is a need for a new generation of TV systems that can expand to include many other functions such as games, CD / DVD, printers, etc. in addition to basic functions such as display and broadcasting, so as to become the center of new home electronic equipment. In addition, the new generation of TV display system also needs to meet the current design trend of thinning. [0003] For example, Chinese patent CN1953517 discloses a flat-panel TV with optional extended functions. Specifically, the TV set has a function expans...
