System for mounting a monitor

Abstract

An automatic tilt mechanism for attaching a monitor to a movable structure, comprising: a hinge having a first leg means for attachment to a monitor, a second leg means for attachment to the movable structure and a pivot joining the first and second leg means so that they can be moved with respect to each other after attachment; a transfer means adapted to move in proportion to movement of the movable structure; and a connecting means for transmitting movement of the transfer means to the hinge so that the first leg means moves proportionally to movement of the movable structure. The invention may further include a reclinable seat back of a seat in a passenger vehicle as the movable structure. The invention may still further include a fixed length sheathed cable as the connecting means. The invention may also provide an automatic tilt mechanism that is driven by motion of the seat back.
