    • BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
  • These and other objects and advantages of the invention will become apparent and more readily appreciated from the following description of the preferred embodiments, taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings of which: [0018]
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a monitor according to an embodiment of the present invention; [0019]
  • FIG. 2 is an exploded perspective view of the monitor of FIG. 1; [0020]
  • FIG. 3 is a bottom perspective view of the monitor of FIG. 2; [0021]
  • FIG. 4 is a perspective view of the monitor of FIG. 3 illustrating the combination pin; and [0022]
  • FIGS. 5A and 5B illustrate swiveling of the monitor of FIG. 1.[0023]
    • DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
  • Reference will now be made in detail to the present preferred embodiments of the present invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein like reference numerals refer to like elements throughout. [0024]
  • As shown in FIG. 1, a monitor according to the present invention includes a [0025] display part 10 to display a picture, a base part 30 to support the display part 10, a connection part 20 having a first end connected to the display part 10 and a second end 20 a connected to the base part 30 so as to support the display part 10 above the base part 30.
  • As shown in FIGS. 2 through 4, the [0026] base part 30 includes a lower plate 32 to be rested on an installation surface such as a desk, a table, etc., an upper plate 34 connected to the lower part 32, leaving a predetermined space therebetween, and a rotation plate 36 provided in the predetermined space.
  • The [0027] lower plate 32 is a flat plate, and is mounted with a buffering member 33 to elastically support the display part 10 on the installation surface. Furthermore, the lower plate 32 is formed with a recess part 32 a at the center thereof.
  • The [0028] recess part 32 a prevents a combination pin 38 (to be described later) from protruding toward and being contacted with the installation surface. If the combination pin 38 protrudes toward and is contacted with the installation surface, the monitor cannot be stably supported on the installation surface. Therefore, the recess part 32 a covers the combination pin 38 placed on the bottom of the lower plate 32, thereby allowing the lower plate 32 to be stably supported on the installation surface. The combination pin 38 may be partially formed with a thread. Thus, the second end 20 a of the connection part 20 is formed with a screw hole 21 to which the combination pin 38 is screw-coupled, whereas the rotation plate 36 and the recess part 32 a are each formed with through holes 36 a and 32 b through which the combination pin 38 is passed.
  • On the [0029] upper plate 34 is provided a through hole 34 a. Thus, the second end 20 a of the connection part 20 is partially inserted into the through hole 34 a, and is connected to the rotation plate 36 by the combination pin 38. Because a portion of the rotation plate 36 is larger than the through hole 34 a, the rotation plate 36 prevents the connection part 20 from being detached from the through hole 34 a when the rotation plate 36 is connected to the second end 20 a. Furthermore, the rotation plate 36 is rotated together with the display part 10 and the connection part 20.
  • A rotating restriction unit restricts swiveling of the [0030] display part 10 against the base part 30 within a predetermined angle. Thus, the display part 10 cannot be swiveled in an unlimited manner. The rotating restriction unit includes first and second rotation restriction projections 40 a and 40 b, which are provided on the circumference of the rotation plate 36 and are spaced from each other at a predetermined arc, and a guide part 41, which is formed inside the upper plate 34, having a projection 42. The guide part 41 guides the rotation restriction projections 40 a and 40 b.
  • The [0031] second end 20 a is partially inserted into the through hole 34 a of the upper plate 34, and is connected to the rotation plate 36 with the combination pin 38, putting the recess part 32 a of the lower plate 32 between the rotation plate 36 and the combination pin 38.
  • Thus, as shown in FIG. 5A, when the [0032] display part 10 is swiveled clockwise, the rotation plate 36 is rotated together with the display part 10, being guided by the guide part 41. At this time, the display part 10 can be swiveled until the first rotation restriction projection 40 a, formed in the rotation plate 36, is stopped by the projection 42, formed in the guide part 41, thereby restricting clockwise swiveling of the display part 10 within a predetermined arc.
  • On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 5B, when the [0033] display part 10 is swiveled counterclockwise, the rotation plate 36 is rotated together with the display part 10, being guided by the guide part 41. At this time, the display part 10 can be swiveled until the second rotation restriction projection 40 b, formed in the rotation plate 36, is stopped by the projection 42, formed in the guide part 41, thereby restricting counterclockwise swiveling of the display part 10 within a predetermined angle.
  • As described above, the [0034] base part 30 is stably supported on the installation surface because the rotation plate 36 is provided in the predetermined space between the upper and lower plates 34 and 32 and connected to the second end 20 a of the connection part 20. Furthermore, swiveling of the display part 10 is restricted within the predetermined angle because of the first and second rotation restriction projections 40 a and 40 b and the guide part 41 having the projection 42.
  • In the foregoing embodiment, the first and second [0035] rotation restriction projections 40 a and 40 b are formed in the rotation plate 36, and the guide part 41 is formed in the upper plate 34. However, the first and second rotation restriction projections may be formed in the upper plate 34, and the guide part 41 may be formed in the rotation plate 36.
  • As described above, the present invention provides a monitor which is stable on an installation surface and has an improved swiveling structure. [0036]
  • Although a few preferred embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that changes may be made in these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined in the claims and their equivalents.
