Tilt adjusting mechanism for display

摘要

A display tilt adjusting apparatus which may be employed in an electronic terminal device such as an electronic cash register is provided. The apparatus includes a pivotal support member, a stay, and a stay holding mechanism. The pivotal support member supports a display unit pivotably. The stay is connected to the display unit. The stay holding mechanism holds the stay to keep a display surface of the display unit at a set angular position. The stay holding mechanism is designed to produce a given degree of resistance to movement of the stay in a direction in which the display surface tilts rearward and keeps the stay free from the resistance in response to movement of the stay in an opposite direction in which the display surface tilts frontward.
