Wall Mount System for Display Units {WALL MOUNT SYSTEM OF FLAT DISPLAY}

The present invention relates to a wall mount system of a display device. More specifically, the wall mount system of the display device according to the present invention allows the user to easily adjust the mounting height of the wall-mounted display device in a certain range.

In general, the CRT type display device is composed of a box type having a considerable volume, so if you want to keep it in your home or office, you need to use a separate floor, a living room floor, a living room floor, and an office floor. Such a box-type display device can be provided only if there is a space as large as the size (volume) of the display device, and the display device is not available as a space.

However, due to the development of technology, the weight of the display device is shifted from the CRT method to a flat panel display device such as an LCD or a PDP, and thus the display device becomes much thinner, and even a large screen is thicker than the conventional CRT display device. Can be formed thin.

Such a flat panel display device can be mounted in a stand manner by using a mounting mechanism such as a separate holder or a turntable, and of course, the display device can be hung on a wall and installed as a wall-hung type.

That is, the LCD or PDP type flat panel display device can be mounted on a wall and used as a wall hanging method. In order to mount the flat panel display device on the wall by the wall-mounted method, a wall mount unit coupled to the wall with the display device is required.

1 shows a conventional general-purpose wall mount unit 100 and a display device (D). A wall mount system including a conventional universal wall mount unit is coupled using a wall (W) and a bolt.

The wall mount system is a means to help the display apparatus D to be mounted on the wall, and in addition to simply mounting the display apparatus D to the wall, the wall mounting system may allow adjustment of the viewing angle of the display apparatus. However, the range is also quite limited.

However, such a conventional wall mount system is combined with the wall surface, and in order to change the installation position of the display device, the user detaches the wall mount system from the wall and then installs the wall mount system at another position by using a bolt or the like.

In particular, in order to change the installation height of the display device according to the needs of the user, in addition to reinstalling the wall mount system in another location, the user has to put the display device on the floor and lift it up again to mount it on the wall mount system whose height is changed. There is a feeling.

However, recently, the flat panel display device has been enlarged, and the weight of the user's re-installation alone is considerable, so that the re-installation work cannot be performed alone.

The present invention provides a wall mount system that allows the user to easily change the installation height of the display device on their own, without separating the wall mount system on which the display device is mounted from the wall when the user of the display device is going to change the installation height of the display device. It is the technical problem to do it.

In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides a display device comprising a slide guide fixed in height, a slide body which is guided to the slide guide to move up and down, and a mounting unit coupled to the slide body and mounted with a display device. Provide a wall mount system.

In this case, the slide guide may be mounted inside the body bracket coupled to the wall surface.

In addition, the slide guide and the body bracket may be integrally formed.

And, one end is coupled to the slide body, the other end is coupled to the body bracket, it may further include a support means for extending or contracting in response to the vertical movement of the slide body.

Here, the support means may be a gas spring or a coil spring.

The slide body may be combined with the mounting unit by being divided and spaced into a plurality of pieces in the slide guide.

In addition, the mounting unit may be a universal wall mount unit for mounting the wall-mounted display device on the wall.

Here, the fixing unit may further include a fixing pin for fixing the height of the mounting unit.

In addition, the fixing pin may fix the height of the mounting unit through the universal wall mount unit and the body bracket.

The slide body may be made of aluminum.

According to the wall mount system according to the present invention, the user can easily change the installation height of the display device.

The wall mount system according to the present invention uses the slide guide and the slide body guided by the slide guide in the wall mount system, so that the installation height of the display device can be changed in a state coupled with the wall surface.

In addition, by using a support means such as a gas spring, some of the large load of the large display device can be offset, so that the user can change the installation height of the display device with a force less than the weight of the display device.

In addition, the wall mount system according to the present invention can be mounted on the slide body of the universal wall mount unit, it is possible to utilize the existing wall mount unit.

Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the embodiments described herein but may be embodied in other forms. Like reference numerals refer to like elements throughout.

Figure 2 shows one embodiment of the height adjustment unit constituting the wall mount system according to the present invention. Figure 2 (a) is an exploded perspective view of the height adjustment unit 200, Figure 2 (b) is a perspective view of the combined state of the height adjustment unit.

The wall mount system according to the present invention uses a slide guide 10 fixed to the wall side and a slide body 20 guided by the slide guide 10 to adjust the installation height of the display device. Although the slide guide 10 may itself be coupled to a wall surface, as shown in FIG. 2, a body bracket 30 for mounting on the wall surface may be used. The body bracket 30 is preferably formed with a locking step 33 for setting the lower limit of the downward displacement of the slide body (20). The locking jaw 33 serves as an obstacle that the slide body 20 cannot pass through. Of course, the fixing pin (reference numeral 60 of FIG. 6) to be described later also serves to fix the installation height of the display device, it may be set by forming the locking step 33 the lower limit of the upper and lower slide movement range.

When the slide guide 10 slides the slide body 20 in the vertical direction, a guide protrusion formed on the other is inserted into the guide groove formed in any one of the slide guide 10 and the slide body 20. In this state, the slide body 20 is movable up and down.

In the embodiment of the height adjustment unit 200 shown in Figure 2, the guide groove 12 is formed in the slide guide 10, the guide protrusion 22 is formed in the slide body (20). When any one of the guide groove and the guide protrusion is formed in any one of the slide guide 10 and the slide body 20, the other one of the slide guide 10 and the slide body 20 may be formed.

The slide body 20 is guided by the slide guide 10 and slides up and down. The slide body 20 is coupled to the mounting unit for mounting the display device.

The mounting unit mounts the display device to act as a combination with the height adjustment unit. Such a mounting unit can be manufactured separately, but the embodiment of the wall mount system according to the present invention uses a universal wall mount. This will be described later.

3 shows another embodiment of a wall mount system according to the present invention. 3 is characterized in that the supporting means is added to the wall mount system shown in FIG. Even if a user who wants to adjust the height of the display apparatus slides the display apparatus up and down using the height adjusting unit 200 to change the installation height of the display apparatus, the weight of the large display apparatus It can be dangerous or impossible for the user to afford alone. Therefore, a supporting means for assisting the load of the display device is required.

The support means may be applied to the spring and the like to offset the weight of the display device in the opposite direction. A coil spring having an elastic force that is offset from the load of the display device and a gas spring that can adjust a bearing force according to the filling amount of gas may be applied.

In the case of the coil spring, it is desirable to have an elastic modulus such that elastic yield occurs due to the weight of the display device. Then, to increase the height of the display apparatus, the height of the display apparatus can be easily adjusted as long as there is a force equal to the difference between the spring force and the weight of the display apparatus.

However, unlike a coil spring whose diameter increases as the weight of the display device increases, the gas spring can provide a supporting force in response to the load of the display device by adjusting the gas filling amount according to the weight of the display device.

Therefore, in the embodiment of the present invention, a gas spring 40 capable of adjusting the supporting force according to the gas filling amount is used as the supporting means.

One end of the gas spring 40 is mounted to the body bracket 30, the other end is coupled to the slide body (20).

In this way, by mounting the gas spring 40 as the support means, when the user wants to change the installation position of the display device, the burden due to the weight of the display device can be alleviated.

That is, in order to change the installation height of the display device, the user can change the installation height of the display device with a force smaller than the actual load of the display device, depending on the gas spring 40 as the support means.

4 illustrates an embodiment in which the slide guide 10 and the body bracket 30 of the height adjusting unit 100 shown in FIG. 3 are integrally formed. If the slide guide 10 is configured integrally with the body bracket 30, the process of mounting the height adjustment unit on the wall can be simplified.

5 is a diagram illustrating a coupling relationship between the universal wall mount unit 100 and the height adjustment unit 200 as a mounting unit.

Universal wall mount unit 100 means a conventional universal wall mount unit 100 shown in FIG. By using the general-purpose wall mount unit 100, it is possible to add a height adjustment function to the general-purpose wall mount unit 100 without the existing height adjustment function.

That is, when the user adds the height adjusting unit 200 to the universal wall mount unit 100, the user can configure a wall mount system that can adjust the height of the display apparatus. Of course, it is possible to configure a separate mounting unit for mounting the display device.

In the embodiment shown in Figures 2 to 5, the reason for configuring the slide body 20 of the height adjustment unit 200 in two is to reduce the weight of the slide body, the universal wall mount unit 100 of various sizes This is to secure the fluidity in the gap between the fastening part at the time of joining.

Universal wall mount unit 100 is originally coupled to the wall by a bolt or the like, in the present invention is fastened to the slide body 100 by a bolt or the like.

6 illustrates a state in which the fixing pin 60 is mounted in the wall mount system according to the present invention in order to fix the height of the display apparatus.

The fixing pin 60 may be configured in the form of a pin penetrating between the fixed body bracket 30 or the slide guide 10 and the universal wall mount unit 100 coupled to the slide body 10.

In the embodiment according to the present invention, the fixing pin 60 is a 'b' shape, the pin of a circular cross section is inserted to pass through the universal wall mount unit 100 and the body bracket or slide guide at the same time.

Therefore, the body bracket 30 or the slide guide 10 preferably forms a through hole at a predetermined interval in a variable range of the height of the display device.
