Support stand for flat-panel display monitor

A support stand for a flat-panel display monitor, comprising:

• a support mechanism comprising a support bracket and a resilient member positioned in the support bracket, wherein the support bracket defines two sliding grooves at opposite sides;
• two link shafts, wherein the resilient member is configured to create an elastic force between the support mechanism and the link shafts so that a distance between the support mechanism and the link shafts tends to decrease;
• an adjustable mechanism rotatably connected to a first end of each link shaft and a first end of the support bracket, and configured for holding the flat-panel display monitor;
• a base member rotatably connected to a second end of each link shaft and a second end of the support bracket, the base member comprising a base portion, a main portion positioned on the base portion, and a mounting portion formed at an end of the main portion, wherein the main portion defines a pivot hole, the support bracket comprises two first extending walls formed at opposites sides of a first end, each first extending wall defines a pivot hole;
• the support stand further comprises a connecting module;
• the connecting module engages in the pivot holes of the first extending walls and the pivot hole of the main portion so that the support bracket is rotatably connected to the base member;
• and
• an adjusting member abutting the resilient member and configured for adjusting the elastic force created by the resilient member
• wherein the support mechanism further comprises an adjusting screw, a latching member defining a threaded hole, a pressing member, a block member, a rolling member, and a shaft;
• the latching member is fixed to the first end of the support bracket;
• the adjusting screw is screwed in the threaded hole to abut the pressing member;
• the resilient member is positioned between the pressing member and the block member;
• the block member is fixed to the support bracket adjacent to the second end, and comprises a base wall and two side walls extending from opposite sides of the base wall, each side wall defines a pivot hole;
• the rolling member is positioned between the side walls of the block member and rotatably connected to the block member, the shaft is passed through a first of the sliding grooves of the support bracket, the pivot hole of a first of the side walls of the block member, the rolling member, the pivot hole of a second of the side walls of the block member, and a second of the sliding grooves of the support bracket.

The support stand of claim l0, wherein the adjustable mechanism comprises a mounting bracket, the mounting bracket comprises a middle portion, two side portions formed at opposite sides of the middle portion, and two blocks extending from the sides portions, each side portion defines a first pivot hole and each block defines a second pivot hole;

• the second of each link shaft defines a mounting hole;
• the support bracket comprises two second extending walls formed at opposites sides of the second end opposite to the first end, each second extending wall defines a pivot hole;
• the support stand further comprises two first connecting modules and two second connecting modules;
• each first connecting module engages in the mounting hole of the second end of each link shaft and each first pivot hole of the mounting bracket;
• each second connecting module engages in each pivot hole of the second end of the support bracket and each second pivot hole of the mounting bracket.
