Adjustable Display Mount for Precise Video Wall Alignment
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional mounting systems for flat-panel displays lack adjustability, limiting their positioning and orientation flexibility, which is essential for optimal viewing and alignment in residential and commercial settings, particularly in video wall applications.
Innovation Solution
The development of adjustable mounting systems that allow for tool-free adjustments in multiple degrees of freedom, featuring a surface bracket, extension arm assembly, mount carriage, and device bracket assemblies, enabling independent translation and rotation of the display relative to the mounting surface, with components that can be extended for service access and aligned precisely for uniform arrays.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If conventional mounting systems are used, then the structure is simple and stable, but the positioning and orientation flexibility is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The mounting system is divided into multiple independent adjustable components including positioners, brackets, and arms that can be individually adjusted to achieve precise positioning and orientation of the display device
Solution Approach 2:
The mounting system incorporates multiple degrees of freedom with adjustable positioners that allow dynamic repositioning of the display in various directions (up/down, left/right, tilt, rotation) to achieve optimal viewing angles and alignment
2Manufacturing precision
If adjustable mounting systems with multiple degrees of freedom are implemented, then positioning precision is improved, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system uses multiple independent positioners (first positioner, second positioner, third positioner, fourth positioner) that can be adjusted separately to control different degrees of freedom, enabling precise positioning through incremental adjustments of individual components
Solution Approach 2:
The mounting system employs universal brackets and positioners that can accommodate various display sizes and mounting configurations, providing multi-functional adjustment capabilities while maintaining a standardized structure that reduces overall complexity
3Ease of repair
If the mounting system components are extended for service access, then maintenance ease is improved, but the profile height increases
Solution Approach 1:
The mounting system allows dynamic extension of components away from the mounting surface when service access is needed, and can be retracted to a low profile position during normal operation, providing both ease of maintenance and aesthetic appearance

AI summary
A mounting system for mounting a display device to a surface, the mounting system adjustable in multiple degrees of freedom to selectively position and orientate the attached device relative to the mounting surface and/or other collocated display devices. According to various embodiments, a surface bracket is configured to attach to a mounting surface and an arm assembly operatively couples the surface bracket with a mount carriage. A mount bracket is movably coupled to the mount carriage and is selectively movable in a plane substantially parallel to the surface. A plurality of device bracket assemblies are coupled to the mount bracket. Each of the device bracket assemblies is selectively movable to translate, pivot and tilt the attached device.
