Abstract
A mount for removably attaching a flat panel electronic display device to a fixed structure includes a first bracket operably couplable to the flat panel electronic display device and a second bracket operably couplable to the fixed structure. The first bracket includes a pair of opposing hooks or other engaging structures. The second bracket has a body portion presenting a first edge for receiving one of the pair of opposing hooks and at least one latch portion operably coupled with the body portion. The latch portion presents a second edge for receiving the other of the pair of opposing hooks. The latch portion is selectively shiftable between a first position engaged with the first bracket and a second position clear of the first bracket.
Claims32
A mount for removably attaching a flat panel electronic display device to a fixed structure, the mount comprising:
- a first bracket operably couplable to the flat panel electronic display device, the first bracket including a pair of opposing hooks;
- a second bracket operably couplable to the fixed structure, the second bracket having a body portion presenting a first edge for receiving a first one of the pair of opposing hooks of the first bracket, the second bracket further including at least one latch portion operably coupled with the body portion, the latch portion presenting a second edge for receiving a second one of the pair of opposing hooks of the first bracket, the latch portion selectively shiftable between a first position and a second position relative to the body portion, wherein when the first one of the pair of opposing hooks of the first bracket is engaged with the first edge of the second bracket, the second edge is engaged with the second one of the pair of opposing hooks to secure the first bracket and the second bracket together when the latch portion is positioned in the first position and the second edge is not engaged with the second one of the pair of opposing hooks to enable the first bracket and the second bracket to be separated when the latch portion is positioned in the second position.
A selectively demountable electronic flat panel display system comprising:
- an electronic flat panel display;
- a first bracket operably coupled to the flat panel electronic display, the first bracket including a pair of opposing hooks;
- a second bracket operably coupled to a fixed structure, the second bracket having a body portion presenting a first edge for receiving a first one of the pair of opposing hooks of the first bracket, the second bracket further including at least one latch portion operably coupled with the body portion, the latch portion presenting a second edge for receiving a second one of the pair of opposing hooks of the first bracket, the latch portion selectively shiftable between a first position and a second position relative to the body portion, wherein when the first one of the pair of opposing hooks of the first bracket is engaged with the first edge of the second bracket, the second edge is engaged with the second one of the pair of opposing hooks to secure the first bracket and the second bracket together when the latch portion is positioned in the first position and the second edge is not engaged with the second one of the pair of opposing hooks to enable the first bracket and the second bracket to be separated when the latch portion is positioned in the second position.
A mount for removably attaching a flat panel electronic display device to a fixed structure, the mount comprising:
- a first bracket operably couplable to the flat panel electronic display device, the first bracket including a pair of opposing hooks;
- a second bracket operably couplable to the fixed structure, the second bracket having a body portion presenting a first edge for receiving a first one of the pair of opposing hooks of the first bracket, the second bracket further including at least one latch portion operably coupled with the body portion, the latch portion presenting a second edge for receiving a second one of the pair of opposing hooks of the first bracket, the second bracket further including means enabling selective shifting of the latch portion between a first position and a second position relative to the body portion, wherein when the first one of the pair of opposing hooks of the first bracket is engaged with the first edge of the second bracket, the second edge is engaged with the second one of the pair of opposing hooks to secure the first bracket and the second bracket together when the latch portion is positioned in the first position and the second edge is not engaged with the second one of the pair of opposing hooks to enable the first bracket and the second bracket to be separated when the latch portion is positioned in the second position.
A mount for removably attaching a flat panel electronic display device to a fixed structure, the mount comprising:
- a first bracket and a second bracket, the first bracket operably couplable to the flat panel electronic display device and the second bracket operably couplable to the fixed structure, the second bracket having a body portion presenting a first edge and at least one latch portion operably coupled with the body portion, the latch portion presenting a second edge, the first bracket including pair of engaging structures, each engaging structure for engaging a separate one of the first edge and the second edge, the latch portion selectively shiftable between a first position and a second position relative to the body portion, wherein when a first one of the pair of engaging structures is engaged with the first edge of the second bracket, the second edge is engaged with a second one of the pair of engaging structures to secure the first bracket and the second bracket together when the latch portion is positioned in the first position and the second edge is not engaged with the second one of the pair of engaging structures to enable the first bracket and the second bracket to be separated when the latch portion is positioned in the second position.
