System, apparatus, and method for the transport and positioning of a display

An apparatus for supporting a display at an elevated position above a floor of a structure, the apparatus comprising:

• a base comprising:
• an elongated rigid base frame;
• at least one wheel configured for supporting the base frame relative to the floor, the wheel rotatable relative to the frame for rolling movement along the floor;
• an elongated horizontal bracing member having a first portion joined to the elongated rigid base frame, the horizontal bracing member having a second portion spaced, from the first portion, the second portion configured to engage the floor in a deployed position, the horizontal bracing member configured to interact with the elongated rigid base frame and the floor for restraining the elongated rigid base frame from tilting toward the second portion in the deployed position;
• an elongated rigid vertical support frame supported by the base frame, the vertical support frame having a lower end joined to the base frame in movable relation thereto for being selectably positioned in a lowered position and a raised position, the vertical support frame having an upper end spaced from the lower end, in the raised position the upper end located at a height above the lower end;
• a pivoting boom, the pivoting boom having a first end and a second end, wherein the first connects to the vertical support frame at the upper end thereof and the second end spaced from the first end, the second end configured for receiving the display;
• a lift pulley system supported by the vertical support frame, the lift pulley system operable for raising the first end of the pivoting boom to a selected vertical position of the pivoting boom relative to the vertical support frame;
• the pivoting boom at the first end thereof supported for pivoting movement relative to the vertical support frame, for pivoting movement of the pivoting boom between a first position and a second position;
• a pivot connection between the first end of the pivoting boom and the vertical support frame formed by a transitory connection, wherein the transitory connection moves relative to the pulley system connection, whereby movement of the transitory connection relative to the pulley system connection raises or lowers the pivoting boom;
• and
• the transitory connection comprising two roller connections, the transitory connection comprising a threaded bar in communication between said two roller connections, the transitory connection configurable by rotating said threaded bar to alter the distance between the two roller connections, wherein rotating said threaded bar to increase the distance between the two roller connections lowers the pivoting boom, wherein rotating said threaded bar to decrease the distance between the two roller connections raises the pivoting boom.
