Abstract

A rack mount includes a roof mount and a suspending frame. The roof mount has a slot therein and the suspending frame is pivotally connected to one side of the slot, such that the suspending frame is operative to rotate between 0° and 180° with respect to the mount roof. The suspending frame has a receiving space for mounting a flat panel display therein. A mirror surface or display surface is attached to a bottom surface of the suspending frame. The rack mount further has an illumination device installed on the roof mount or the suspending frame, and a switch accessible to the user for controlling on/off status of the illumination device. Alternatively, the illumination device can be activated by the orientation of the suspending frame with respect to the roof mount.

It is also very dangerous for tall people. Such type of rack is not suitable for use in a small size family car. In the small size car, the television is typically in the form of a liquid crystal display embedded in the middle of the dashboard. Therefore, it is not convenient for the passengers in the back seats to watch. Further, mirrors have been commonly f...
