<p>A monitor support system with self-positioning guide track that includes a base (10) configured for mounting in the interior of a land vehicle, and a monitor support member (12) positioned for sliding motion through a bore (14) in the base (10). The monitor support member (12) supports a monitor, and may be moved between a stowed position wherein a supported monitor is positioned adjacent the base (10) for storage and a deployed position wherein a supported monitor is positioned away from the base (10) for use by a vehicle occupant. The monitor support member (12) may include a longitudinal guideway (32) and the base may include a guideway positioning element (30) that engages the guideway (32) to guide sliding longitudinal movement of the monitor support member (12) along a desired trajectory between the stowed and deployed positions. The monitor support member (12) further may include at least one transverse guideway (42) that engages the guideway positioning element (30) to permit transverse sliding movement of the monitor support member (12) following deployment along the longitudinal axis.</p> |
