Abstract

A display device includes a display unit having a panel-shape, a stand supporting the display unit, an adjusting mechanism being attached to the display unit and enabling the display unit to move up and down relative to the stand and turn around the stand, a first fastening member fastening the adjusting mechanism to the stand, and a regulating mechanism regulating the display unit from descending relative to the stand when the first fastening member is removed. The regulating mechanism includes a projection being formed on one of the stand and the adjusting mechanism, and a recess being formed in the other of the stand and the adjusting mechanism and being fitted onto the projection.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A display device comprising:
a display unit having a panel-shape; a stand supporting the display unit;
an adjusting mechanism being attached to the display unit and enabling the display unit to move up and down relative to the stand and turn around the stand;
a first fastening member fastening the adjusting mechanism to the stand; and
a regulating mechanism regulating the display unit from descending relative to the stand when the first fastening member is removed,
wherein the regulating mechanism includes:
a projection being formed on one of the stand and the adjusting mechanism; and
a recess being formed in another one of the stand and the adjusting mechanism and being fitted onto the projection,

wherein the stand includes:
a base member; and
a prop part standing on the base member and extending along a predetermined axis,

wherein the adjusting mechanism includes:
an attachment member being attached to the display unit;
a turning member being connected with the attachment member so as to be allowed to turn relative to the attachment member and being supported by the prop part so as to be movable relative to the prop part along the predetermined axis; a
support member being fastened to the prop part with the first fastening member; and
a second fastening member fastening the support member to the turning member,

wherein when the projection is formed on the stand, the prop part of the stand has the projection, and when the projection is formed on the adjusting mechanism, the support member of the adjusting mechanism has the projection,
wherein when the recess is formed in the stand, the prop part of the stand has the recess, and when the recess is formed in the adjusting mechanism, the support member of the adjusting mechanism has the recess,
wherein the adjusting mechanism enables the display unit to move up and down relative to the stand along the predetermined axis and enables the display unit to turn relative to the stand around the predetermined axis,
wherein the display device further comprises a pair of third fastening members fastening the attachment member to the turning member,
wherein the attachment member includes:
a second opening through which the prop part is inserted movably along the predetermined axis; and
a pair of third openings being disposed at positions substantially symmetric with respect to the second opening, and
wherein the pair of the third fastening members are inserted into the pair of the third openings, allowing the pair of the third fastening members to be movable along a circumferential direction with respect to the second opening.

2. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein each of the pair of the third fastening members is a shoulder bolt.

3. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein
an outer peripheral surface of the prop part has a groove portion extending along the predetermined axis, and
the support member includes:
a support body part; and
a protrusion part being formed on the support body part and being fitted into the groove portion.

4. The display device according to claim 3 , wherein the projection is formed on the protrusion part of the support member, and the recess is formed in the groove portion of the prop part.

5. The display device according to claim 3 , wherein the turning member has a first opening through which the prop part is inserted movably along the predetermined axis, and one end part of the protrusion part protrudes outward of the support body part and is inserted into the first opening.

6. A stand set comprising: a stand supporting a display unit that has a panel-shape;
an adjusting mechanism configured to be attached to the display unit and configured to enable the display unit to move up and down relative to the stand and turn around the stand;
a first fastening member fastening the adjusting mechanism to the stand; and a regulating mechanism configured to regulate the display unit from descending relative to the stand when the first fastening member is removed,
wherein the regulating mechanism includes a projection being formed on one of the stand and the adjusting mechanism, and a recess being formed in another one of the stand and the adjusting mechanism and being fitted onto the projection,
wherein the stand includes:
a base member; and
a prop part standing on the base member and extending along a predetermined axis,
wherein the adjusting mechanism includes;
 an attachment member configured to be attached to the display unit; a turning member being connected with the attachment member so as to be allowed to turn relative to the attachment member and being supported by the prop part so as to be movable relative to the prop part along the predetermined axis;
 a support member being fastened to the prop part with the first fastening member;

and
 a second fastening member fastening the support member to the turning member, wherein when the projection is formed on the stand, the prop part of the stand has the projection, and when the projection is formed on the adjusting mechanism, the support member of the adjusting mechanism has the projection,
wherein when the recess is formed in the stand, the prop part of the stand has the recess, and when the recess is formed in the adjusting mechanism, the support member of the adjusting mechanism has the recess,
wherein the adjusting mechanism is configured to enable the display unit to move up and down relative to the stand along the predetermined axis and is configured to enable the display unit to turn relative to the stand around the predetermined axis,
wherein the stand set further comprises a pair of third fastening members fastening the attachment member to the turning member,
wherein the attachment member includes:
a second opening through which the prop part is inserted movably along the predetermined axis; and
a pair of third openings being disposed at positions substantially symmetric with respect to the second opening, and

wherein the pair of the third fastening members are inserted into the pair of the third openings, allowing the pair of the third fastening members to be movable along a circumferential direction with respect to the second opening.
