Pop-up display.

An apparatus for driving and guiding movement of a display assembly that includes a display unit and an electronics housing pivotally coupled at one end to an adjacent end of the display unit, the apparatus comprising:

• a housing having a plurality of walls that includes first and second side panels and front and rear panels extending between the first and second side panels;
• a first track disposed within the housing between one side of the display unit and the first side panel;
• a first pair of pins extending from the one side of the display unit into the first track, the first track defining a path along which the first pair of pins is moveable;
• and
• at least one constant force spring having at one end a coiled part that is rotatably coupled to another end of the electronics housing, the at least one constant force spring having an opposing end fastened to a fixed mounting location on the front panel, and an uncoiled part extending between the coiled part and the opposing end,
• the at least one constant force spring being configured to drive the electronics housing and the display unit from a lowered position to a raised position while the first pair of pins travels along the first track.

An apparatus for driving and guiding movement of a display assembly that includes a display unit and an electronics housing pivotally coupled at one end to an adjacent end of the display unit, the apparatus comprising:

• a housing having a plurality of walls, including
• a first side panel,
• a second side panel opposing the first side panel,
• a front panel and a rear panel each extending between the first side panel and the second side panel,
• a bottom panel, and
• a top panel having an opening formed therein;
• a first track disposed within the housing between one side of the display unit and the first side panel;
• a first pair of pins extending from the one side of the display unit into the first track, the first track defining a path along which the first pair of pins are moveable;
• a second track disposed within the housing between an opposing side of the display unit and the second side panel;
• a second pair of pins extending from the opposing side of the display unit into the second track, the second track defining a path along which the second pair of pins are moveable;
• and
• first and second constant force springs each having at one end a respective coiled part that is rotatably coupled to the another end of the electronics housing, a respective opposing end fastened to a respective fixed mounting location on the front panel, and a respective uncoiled part extending between its respective coiled part and its respective opposing end, wherein
• upon the display unit being in the lowered position in which the electronics housing and the display unit are disposed entirely within the housing, the first and second constant force springs are each configured to drive the display unit such that the first pair of pins travels along the first track and the second pair of pins travels along the second track which guide movement of the display until the display unit is in a raised position in which the display unit is at least partially extends outside the housing through the opening formed in the top panel.
