Abstract
A monitor stand comprises a first arm for coupling to a first monitor and a second arm for coupling to a second monitor. The first and second arms are coupled to an upper column of the monitor stand. A lower column of the monitor stand supports the upper column. The first arm, the second arm, and the upper column are configured to rotate around a rotation axis offset from a longitudinal center axis of the lower column to fold or unfold the monitor stand between an open and closed position.

A monitor stand comprising:
- a first arm for coupling to a first monitor;
- a second arm for coupling to a second monitor;
- an upper column supporting the first and second arms;
- and
- a lower column supporting the upper column,
- wherein the first arm, the second arm, and the upper column are configured to rotate around a single rotation axis offset from a longitudinal center axis of the lower column to fold or unfold the monitor stand between an open position and a closed position while the lower column does not rotate.
A monitor stand comprising:
- a first arm coupled to a first monitor;
- a second arm coupled to a second monitor;
- an upper column supporting the first and second arms;
- and
- a lower column supporting the upper column,
- wherein the first arm, the second arm, and the upper column are configured to rotate around a single rotation axis offset from a longitudinal center axis of the upper column to fold or unfold the monitor stand between an open position and a closed position while the lower column does not rotate.
A method for folding or unfolding a monitor stand, comprising:
- unlocking a monitor stand to allow rotation of the monitor stand;
- rotating a first arm, a second arm, and a first column of a monitor stand around a single rotation axis offset from a longitudinal center axis of a second column while the second column does not rotate, the first column supporting the first and second arms and the second column supporting the first column;
- and
- locking the monitor stand to prevent rotation of the monitor stand.
