ABSTRACT:
A swivel base assembly for supporting a device such as a video display terminal (including a video monitor and a keyboard) and including means for rotating the device through a large angle, for example, 270.degree.. The swivel base assembly includes a tray on which the device is positioned and a circular base member having a space for containing a circularly- wound data-carrying cable, such as a coaxial cable, for use by the device on the tray. The base member also includes a pair of upstanding spaced stop members formed therein and arranged to cooperate with a depressed stop member formed in the tray to establish the aforementioned 270.degree. range of angular rotation. The base member further includes a plurality of glide members inserted within vertical support columns therein for evenly distributing the weight of the tray and the device on the tray and also includes a depressed cable guide and strain relief member for use in arranging the data-carrying cable within the base member and also for providing strain relief for the data-carrying cable. Provision is also made in the various members of the swivel base assembly for the passage of an ac power cable to the device on the tray.
