Tilt mechanism for display terminal

摘要

An inexpensive tilt mechanism for a display terminal includes a pair of L-shaped rails at the bottom surface of the terminal. The rails define a channel extending from front to back at the bottom surface. At least one of the rails has a toothed surface. A movable support includes a pedestal attached to a base plate which can be shifted along the channel defined by the L-shaped rails. In a preferred embodiment, only one of the rails has a toothed surface while the pedestal has an attached lever which can be used to pivot the movable support about the other rail until it clears the teeth. In this disengaged position, the movable support can be shifted along the channel.
