Holding device for monitors provided with viewing screens

A holding device for a monitor provided with a display, comprising:

• an underbody and a carrier located above said underbody for supporting a monitor;
• the underbody and the carrier having respective front and rear ends and being interconnected via a mechanism for readjusting the monitor between different adjustment positions;
• said mechanism comprising at least one link connected to the underbody via a first joint positioned at a comparatively short distance from the front end of the underbody, and connected to the carrier via an opposed second joint positioned at a larger distance from the front end of the carrier;
• said link being so arranged as to, at manual movement of the carrier relative to the underbody, forcedly guide the carrier between a rear end position in which the front end of the carrier is situated near the underbody, and the display of the monitor is oriented at a comparatively steep angle relative to a horizontal plane, and a second end position in which the carrier is pivoted upwards/frontwards relative to the underbody, in order to locate the display of the monitor at a flatter angle relative to the horizontal plane;
• said carrier comprising at least one guide, which cooperates with a pivot arm connected to the underbody via a third joint located in the region of the rear end of the underbody, whereby the guide and the carrier are translatorically displaceable relative to the underbody.
