ABSTRACT:
A mechanism for mounting a video display unit (or the like) to a base unit is disclosed. The mechanism includes a ball-shaped (or partial sphere-shaped) portion which mounts to the bottom of the display unit. The base carries a circular bevelled rim-shaped member for mating with, and providing support for, the ball-shaped member. A slot in the ball-shaped member carries a sliding member. A stud, fixed to the base unit, passes through the sliding member such that pivoting of the display unit occurs about the axis of the stud. Tilting occurs by the display unit moving relative to the sliding member (i.e. the sliding member moves in the slot). Consequently, tilting is provided about an axis orthogonal to the axis of the stud.
