ROPS mount for work vehicle display interface

In a work vehicle having an operator compartment, first and second operational sides, and a roll over protection system (ROPS), an adjustable mounting device for a display interface, comprising:

• a mounting bracket adapted to connect to the ROPS;
• a linear translation mechanism connected to the mounting bracket to extend primarily in the direction between the first and second operational sides of the operator compartment, the translation mechanism having at least two rails and a slider coupled to at least one of the rails to translate thereon;
• and
• a rotational display mount connected to the slider and providing a mounting location for the display interface;
• wherein the display mount is positioned in proximity to the first operational side of the operator compartment when the translation mechanism is in a first end of travel position and wherein the display mount is positioned in proximity to the second operational side of the operator compartment when the translation mechanism is in a second end of travel position, and wherein the display mount is rotatable about a pivot axis between a first angular orientation detent location and a second angular orientation detent location;
• and
• wherein the linear translation system includes detent mechanisms such that when in the first and second end of travel positions the at least two rails are positively held in a fixed position relative to one another and the slider is positively held in a fixed position relative to the at least two rails.

In a work vehicle having an operator compartment, first and second operational sides, and a roll over protection system (ROPS), an adjustable mounting device for a display interface, comprising:

• a linear translation mechanism adapted to be connected to a support member of the ROPS to extend primarily in the direction between the first and second operational sides of the operator compartment, the translation mechanism having at least two rails and a slider coupled to at least one of the rails to translate thereon;
• and
• a display mount having a hanger bracket connected to the slider, the hanger bracket being angled to define a platform essentially parallel with the slider to which is connected a display bracket for connecting the display interface to the hanger bracket, the display bracket being rotatable about a pivot axis essentially perpendicular to the hanger bracket platform to move between a first angular orientation and a second angular orientation;
• wherein the display mount is positioned in proximity to the first operational side of the operator compartment when the translation mechanism is in a first end of travel position and in proximity to the second operational side of the operator compartment when the translation mechanism is in a second end of travel position, and wherein the display mount is positionable in the first angular orientation when the translation mechanism is in the first end of travel position and in the second angular orientation when the translation mechanism is in the second end of travel position;
• and
• wherein the linear translation system includes detent mechanisms such that when in the first and second end of travel positions the at least two rails are positively held in a fixed position relative to one another, the slider is positively held in a fixed position relative to the at least two rails, and the display interface is positively held in a fixed position relative to the display mount.
