ABSTRACT:
A video display is provided which includes a display screen mounted to a forward end of the video display, a video projector having a center of gravity, and a reflective assembly for directing light from within the video projector to the display screen. The video display further includes a frame for supporting the display screen, the video projector and a reflective assembly in an operative relationship. Stationary brackets are rigidly mounted to the frame, and projector brackets are rigidly mounted to the video projector. The projector brackets are pivotally mounted to the stationary brackets for rotating relative to the stationary brackets, about a pivot point. Rotating the projector brackets relative to the stationary brackets rotates the video projector relative to the frame, from a first position to a second position. When the video projector is rotated about the frame from the first position to the second position, the center of gravity of the video projector is moved from forward of the pivot point to rearward of the pivot point and a rearward end of the video projector is moved in a downward direction. The weight of the video projector is supported when it is disposed in the second position so that it will automatically remain in the second position for servicing.
