Description

  The present invention relates to a stand device, and more particularly to a structure of a stand device that supports a thin display such as a liquid crystal display or a plasma display.

  Conventionally, as a stand device that supports a thin display such as a liquid crystal display or a plasma display, for example, there is a stand device 201 that supports the back surface of the thin display 200 as shown in FIG. The stand device 201 includes a pedestal portion 202 and two support columns 203 extending from the pedestal portion 202 in the vertical direction. In order to change the height of the thin display 200 on the column 203, a plurality of holes 204 are provided in the height direction, and screws 205 are inserted into these holes 204 to fix the back surface of the thin display 200 to the column 203. (See Patent Document 1).

  In this stand device 201, if the weight of the thin display becomes heavy due to the large screen of the thin display, it cannot be stably supported only by the back surface of the thin display. In order to support it stably only on the back of a thin display, it is necessary to increase the strength of the support or to have a complicated support structure.

  As a stand device that solves the drawbacks of the stand device that supports the back surface of such a thin display, for example, there is a stand device 101 that supports the bottom surface of the thin display 100 as shown in FIG. The stand device 101 includes a pedestal portion 110, two support columns 120 extending in the vertical direction from the pedestal portion 110, and a plurality of plate-like members 130. The two support columns 120 have grooves 120c for mounting the thin display 100 and the plurality of plate-shaped members 130, and the plurality of plate-shaped members 130 are mounted under the thin display 100 along the grooves 120c. It is like that. The bottom surface of the thin display 100 is supported by the plate member 130, and the height of the thin display 100 can be changed by changing the number of the plate members 130 (see Patent Document 2).

  In this stand device 101, the load of the thin display 100 is received by the upper surface of the plate-like member 130, and even if the weight of the thin display becomes heavy due to the large screen of the thin display compared to the stand device 201 of Patent Document 1. The strength of the support column is relatively weak and does not require a complicated support structure, and can support the thin display 100 stably.

  However, in the stand device 101 of Patent Document 2, the height of the thin display 100 can be changed in multiple stages, but on the other hand, a plurality of plates are used to support the bottom surface of the thin display 100 and match the height of the column 120. There is a drawback that the shaped member 130 is required as a separate part. Further, there is a disadvantage that at least two plate-like members 130 are required to change the height of the thin display 100 while supporting the bottom surface of the thin display 100.

  By the way, such a thin display has various installation forms such as presence or absence of a speaker. For example, there is an installation form in which only a thin display is provided without a speaker. When there is a speaker, there is an installation form in which a speaker is installed at the lower part of the thin display in order to obtain a sense of unity of video and sound.

  In such an installation form, the height of the thin display can be changed depending on the presence or absence of a speaker. For example, when there is a speaker, a separate part is inserted between the thin display and a pedestal portion of a predetermined height, The height of the thin display was increased by the height of, and the bottom of the thin display was supported by the top surface of another component. Further, in the case without a speaker, a separate part was not inserted between the thin display and the pedestal portion, the thin display was lowered, and the bottom surface of the thin display was supported by the upper surface of the pedestal portion.

These conventional stand devices support the bottom surface of the thin display to stably support the load of the thin display, and make it possible to change the height of the thin display. It was. For this reason, there is a demand for the appearance of a stand device that can stably support a thin display with a large screen and weight easily by common parts and can change the height of the thin display.
