Abstract
A monitor stand assembly includes a lower part and an upper part which can be linked without additional connecting member, resulting in easier assembly and improved productivity. The introduction of an interlocking mechanism for the upper and lower parts of the stand by interlocking selector flanges through an oval cutout, and a rotation-stopping flange for restricting horizontal rotation of the upper part within a flange-rotation-allowable zone, result in smooth monitor rotation as well as more secure monitor positioning after adjustment.
Claims6
A monitor stand, for supporting a monitor and adjusting the monitor's position, said monitor stand comprising:
- a first part for interlocking engagement on one side with a monitor and having an elongated opening centrally located therein;
- a second part having a generally concave surface disposed on an opposite side of said first part, said second part having a position selector means projecting from a surface thereof for insertion within said elongated opening, said position selector means having selector flange means for loose interlocking engagement with said elongated opening to enable rotational movement of said first part with respect to said second part, said second part including first stop means and second stop means for defining a rotation-allowable zone for said first part;
- and
- rotation-stop flange means disposed on said opposite side of said first part and projecting therefrom between said first stop means and second stop means for permitting said rotation of said first part within said rotation-allowable zone, wherein said first stop means is a stop rib and said second stop means is an elastic rib, both said stop rib and said elastic rib being arranged at a given angle on the concave surface of said second part to define said rotation-allowable zone.
