ABSTRACT:
A friction tilt mechanism is specially configured to provide precisely controllable tilt angles to devices requiring smooth and stable angular adjustability, by virtue of employing one or more unique frictional tilt devices. Each friction tilt device includes a pair of bronze bearing blocks, one responsive to precisely applied compressive forces to produce user controllable amounts of static and rotational friction to the tilt axis. When a pair of the friction tilt devices are arranged on a support adapted to carry a flat panel display, smooth and precise viewing angle adjustments are readily accomplished and stabily retained for a wide range of display weights.
