Abstract
A dematerialized information handling system display stand supports a display assembly with vertical adjustments using a single injection molded polyoxymethylene (POM) sliding member inserted in an extruded aluminum riser. A compression spring locks the sliding member in place with torsional force that releases to enable vertical movement. A mount couples to a rear side of the riser with a rail in a channel of the mount engaged in a guide formed in the riser at extrusion of the riser. An information handling system housing couples to the mount. When removed from the riser, the mount assembles into a stand with the housing supported in the channel.
Claims9
An information handling system comprising:
- a housing;
- a processor coupled in the housing and operable to execute instructions that process information;
- a memory coupled in the housing and interfaced with the processor, the memory operable to store the information and instructions;
- a peripheral display assembly having a display panel interfaced with the processor and operable to present the information as visual images;
- a peripheral display stand having a display support coupled to the peripheral display assembly, a riser coupled to the display support at a front side of the riser and holding the display support in a raised position, and a base coupled to the riser at a bottom side of the riser;
- a mount having first and second portions coupled to the housing in a spaced relationship to form a channel that slides onto the riser over the top of the riser with an opening at a front side to slide at least partially past the display support;
- a rail formed in the mount within the channel;
- a guide formed in the riser exterior, the rail engaging the guide to slide vertically up and down the rail;
- and
- opposing tabs and slots formed in the mount first and second portions to engage with each other when the mount decouples from the housing so the channel defines a space to accept the housing in a stand.
A peripheral display comprising:
- a peripheral display assembly having a display panel operable to present information as visual images;
- a peripheral display stand having a display support coupled to the peripheral display assembly, a riser coupled at a front side to the display support and holding the display support in a raised position, and a base coupled to the riser at a bottom side of the riser;
- and
- a mount having first and second portions coupled to an information handling system housing in a spaced relationship to form a channel that slides onto the riser over a top side of the riser, the mount having an opening at a front side to slide at least partially past the display support at the front side and to hold the information handling system at a rear side of the riser, a rail formed in the mount within the channel, a guide formed in the riser exterior, the rail engaging the guide to slide vertically up and down the rail;
- and
- opposing tabs and slots formed in the mount first and second portions to engage with each other when the mount decouples from the information handling system housing so the channel defines a space to accept the housing in a stand.
