ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for removably attaching display apparatus such as an LCD screen to electrical apparatus. The attachment apparatus provides for electrical and mechanical attachment and detachment of the display apparatus in a single operation. When the display apparatus is detached, the attachment apparatus also provides for attachment of different display apparatus to the electrical apparatus. The attachment apparatus consists of a socket including a male electrical connector and a plug including a female electrical connector. When the plug is inserted into the socket, the male and female electrical connectors are connected, thereby providing power and signals to the display apparatus. The plug is held in the socket by means of a lever-actuated friction mechanism.
