Supporting device to display apparatus

Abstract

A supporting device to a display apparatus having an improved configuration to maximize utilization of a space between the display apparatus and a wall is disclosed. The supporting device to the display apparatus includes a plurality of support protrusions coupled to a rear surface of the display apparatus, a plurality of first support panels fixed to the wall, and a plurality of second support panels rotatably coupled to the first support panels, respectively, each second support panel having a receiving region by which a corresponding one of the plurality of support protrusions is received.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]This application claims the benefit of Korean Patent Application No. 10-2011-0147583, filed on Dec. 30, 2011 in the Korean Intellectual Property Office, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.BACKGROUND[0002]1. Field[0003]Apparatuses consistent with exemplary embodiments relate to a supporting device to a display apparatus, which is devised to support and fix the display apparatus to a wall.[0004]2. Description of the Related Art[0005]To ensure more effective utilization of an indoor space, supporting devices are largely used to hang and fix a flat panel type display apparatus, such as a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) or a Plasma Display Panel (PDP), to a wall.[0006]Conventional supporting devices may have a simple function to fix a display apparatus to a wall, a swivel function to enable leftward / rightward movement of a display apparatus, or a tilt function to enable upward / downward movement of a display...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The invention is about a supporting device for a display screen that saves space by improving its configuration. The technical effect of this innovation is increased efficiency in the use of available space between the display screen and the wall.

Problems solved by technology

However, if a space between the display apparatus and the wall is narrow, these supporting devices may have a difficulty in connecting a variety of cables, used to supply power to the display apparatus or supply signals for control of the display apparatus, to a rear surface of the display apparatus.

Expanding the space between the display apparatus and the wall to facilitate connection of the cables, however, may have an adverse effect on effective utilization of the indoor space.

Moreover, the conventional supporting devices have difficulties in terms of installation because leveling a display apparatus fixed to a wall may require separation or recoupling of the display apparatus from or to the supporting device, and even if not separating the display apparatus from the supporting device, the conventional supporting devices may require unfastening fixing members, such as screws, etc., used to fix the supporting device, and then fastening the screws after leveling of the display apparatus.
