2. Description of the Related Art

Monitors and TV display screens are popularly used in today's home life, offices, schools and workstations. Due to the drawbacks of being bulky with poor quality and capable of receiving analog signal only, the early cathode ray tube type display screens have been eliminated by the market. Nowadays, LCD or plasma-type display screens have been widely used to replace conventional cathode ray tube type designs for the advantages of having light, thin, clear picture characteristics and being capable of receiving analog and digital signals. However, commercial display screens stands simply allow view angle adjustment within a small range. During display screen view angle adjustment, the user must pay attention to the location of the center of gravity of the display screen to avoid dumping. A display screen can be mounted in a wall or at a high place. However, commercial wall mount type display screen support designs do not allow easy adjustment of the installation position and view angle of the supported display screen, limiting the application.

In order to meet the user's need to adjust display screen angular position and to minimize desktop or workstation installation space, angle-adjustable display screen support devices are created. These commercial angle-adjustable display screen support devices can be installed on a desktop, pylons or wall with a hanger bracket or wall bracket. Through swivel arms or lifting torque arms of angle-adjustable display screen support devices, the user can adjust the view angle and position of the supported display screen conveniently. In actual application, a user will often need to operate a keyboard and a mouse. A display screen can be mounted with a keyboard and mouse on aswivel arm or lifting torque arm of an angle-adjustable display screen support device so that the user can watch the display screen and operate the keyboard and the mouse in a standing or sitting position. However, conventional angle-adjustable display screen support devices do not allow adjustment of the elevation of the supported display screen, keyboard and mouse according to the user's body height. Thus, the user may feel uncomfortable when watching the supported display screen or operating the keyboard and the mouse. There is a commercial angle-adjustable display screen support device that allows adjustment of the lifting column between the supported display screen and the keyboard and mouse tray. However, the adjustment of the lifting column requires a special hand tool or needs to fasten a lock screw. This display screen elevational adjustment procedure is complicated. This design still cannot fit all different users having different body heights, resulting improper operating posture of the user. Thus, this design is less ergonomic. When the display screen is mounted on the lifting column of the angle-adjustable display screen support device, if the support force of the lifting column is not properly adjusted and positively locked, the support device will be unable to move or be sagged by gravity, causing structural damage of the support device. In actual application, conventional display screen support designs still have drawbacks that must be improved.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The present invention has been accomplished under the circumstances in view. It is the main object of the present invention to provide an elevation-adjustable display screen support arm, which comprises an arm shaft, a balance adjustment mechanism, and a display screen mounting head. The arm shaft comprises a box-like shaft body defining therein an accommodation chamber and a front opening in communication with the accommodation chamber, and an outer cover fastened to the box-like shaft body and covered over the front opening. The outer cover defines therein an upper opening in communication with the front opening and the accommodation chamber. The balance adjustment mechanism is mounted in the accommodation chamber of the box-like shaft body, comprising a first sliding tooth rack, a second sliding tooth rack, a gear train meshed between the first sliding tooth rack and the second sliding tooth rack, a tension spring connected between the box-like shaft body and the second sliding tooth rack, and an actuating plate mounted at the second sliding tooth rack and connected to a bottom end of the tension spring. The display screen mounting head comprises a body block for supporting a display screen at a front side thereof, a first guideway and a second guideway respectively mounted on the two side panels of the box-like shaft body, and a connection panel mounted at an opposing back side of the body block and inserted through the upper opening of the outer cover into the inside of the box-like shaft body and fixedly connected to the first sliding tooth rack, the first guideway and the second guideway. When the user adjusts the elevation of the supported display screen, the body block of the display screen mounting head is driven to move the first sliding tooth rack in rotating the gear train, causing the gear train to move the second sliding tooth rack in driving the actuating plate to stretch or compress the tension spring, and thus, rotation of the gear train causes the tension spring to provide a corresponding torque that is acted upon the first sliding tooth rack to control upward or downward movement of the display screen mounting head and the supported display screen in a stepless manner. Thus, the user can adjust the elevation of the display screen easily with less effort.

Further, when the user moves the display screen upward or downward to adjust its elevation, the body block of the display screen mounting head drives the first sliding tooth rack of the balance adjustment mechanism and a slide of the first guideway to move upward or downward along a track. At this time, a slide of the second guideway is forced to move downward or upward along the track, the first sliding tooth rack drives drive gear and driven gear of the gear train to rotate, causing the driven gear to move the second sliding tooth rack, and therefore the actuating plate is forced to move in the same direction of the first sliding tooth rack. At the same time, the tension spring is forced by the actuating plate to stretch or compress. Thus, rotation of the gear train causes the tension spring to provide a corresponding torque that is acted upon the first sliding tooth rack to control upward or downward movement of the display screen mounting head and the display screen. The first guideway and the second guideway assist the body block to reciprocate stably and smoothly in the longitudinal direction, allowing adjustment of the elevation of the display screen in a stepless manner without the use of any tool or fixation screws and keeping the display screen for automatic positioning. Further, by means of stopping a stop block of the second sliding tooth rack at the top or bottom end of a position-limiting slot of the box-like shaft body, the elevation adjustment of the display screen is limited to a predetermined range, avoiding overstretch of the tension spring and automatic positioning failure of the display screen. Thus, the user can adjust the elevation of the display screen easily with less effort.

Preferably, the balance adjustment mechanism further comprises a torque adjustment unit. The torque adjustment unit comprises a stop member set between the box-like shaft body and the tension spring, and an adjustment screw mounted in the stop member. The tension spring has the opposing top and bottom ends thereof respectively connected to the stop member and the actuating plate of the second sliding tooth rack so that rotating the adjustment screw drives the stop member to adjust the tension of the tension spring. When the user wishes to adjust the load, use a tool to rotate the adjustment screw clockwise or counter-clockwise, causing the stop member to stretch or compress the tension spring. Thus, the user can fasten tight or loosen the adjustment screw of the torque adjustment unit according to the weight of the display screen to be supported, controlling lifting smoothness of the display screen.

Other advantages and features of the present invention will be fully understood by reference to the following specification in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, in which like reference signs denote like components of structure.

The adjustment screw 252 comprises a screw head 2521, and a screw shank 2522 extended from one side of the screw head 2521. The screw head 2521 is disposed outside the top hole 122 of the outer cover 12 and stopped at a top surface of the top panel 113 around the through hole 1131. The screw shank 2522 is downwardly inserted through the through hole 1131 and threaded into the screw hole 2511 in the short transverse top plate portion 251a and then inserted into the inside of the tension spring 24.

The display screen mounting head 3 comprises a body block 31, a first guideway 32 and a second guideway 33. The first guideway 32 and the second guideway 33 are respectively mounted on the two side panels 112 of the box-like shaft body 11. The body block 31 comprises a substantially ␣-shaped connection panel 311 located at a back side thereof that is attached onto the outer cover 12 with two opposite angled lateral sides thereof respectively extended over two opposite lateral sides of the front panel 13 into the inside of the upper opening 120 of the outer cover 12 and the accommodation chamber 110 in the box-like shaft body 11, and a locating plate 312 located at an opposing front side thereof. Preferably, the locating plate 312 is connected to the front side of the body block 31 through a ball and socket joint. The first guideway 32 and the second guideway 33 each comprise a track 321,331, and a slide 322,332 coupled to and movable along the track 321,331. The tracks 321,331 are respectively affixed to the side panels 112. The connection panel 311 of the body block 31 has one angled lateral side thereof fixedly connected to the linking plate 222 of the first sliding tooth rack 22 and the slide 322 of the first guideway 32, and the other angled lateral side thereof fixedly connected to the slide 322 of the second guideway 33.

Referring to FIGS. 5-8, in the present preferred embodiment, the connection panel 311 of the display screen mounting head 3 is fastened to the body block 31 with screws. In actual application, the connection panel 311 can be formed integral with the body block 31.

The elevation-adjustable display screen support arm can be used for supporting any type of display screens, including desktop or industrial display screens, interactive or medical-type cantilever screens and workstation screens. In installation, affix a display screen 4 to the locating plate 312 at the back side of the body block 31 of the display screen mounting head 3 (see FIG. 7), allowing the display screen 4 to be tiled upward or downward, rotated on the axis thereof, or biased leftward or rightward to adjust the view angle. Further, a socket bracket 14, hanger bracket, wall bracket or any other design of mounting assembly can be affixed to a back surface of the back panel 111 of the box-like shaft body 11 of the arm shaft 1 for allowing installation of the arm shaft 1 in a rack, support, wall, desk, table, etc. Alternatively, a table clamp 15 can be provided at a bottom side of the bottom panel 114 of the box-like shaft body 11 of the arm shaft 1 for fastening the arm shaft 1 to a border edge of a tabletop. The table clamp 15 can be configured to provide a keyboard tray for holding a keyboard and a mouse for operation by the user in a sitting or standing position.

When the user wishes to adjust the elevation of the display screen 4, move the display screen 4 upward or downward with the two hands directly. At this time, the body block 31 of the display screen mounting head 3 drives the first sliding tooth rack 22 of the balance adjustment mechanism 2 and the slide 322 of the first guideway 32 to move upward or downward along the track 321. At this time, the slide 332 of the second guideway 33 is forced to move downward or upward along the track 331; the series of teeth 221 of the first sliding tooth rack 22 drives the drive gear 211 and driven gear 212 of the gear train 21 to rotate, causing the driven gear 212 to move the series of teeth 231 of the second sliding tooth rack 23, and therefore the actuating plate 232 is forced to move in the same direction of the first sliding tooth rack 22. At the same time, the end piece 241 of the tension spring 24 is forced by the actuating plate 232 to stretch or compress the tension spring 24. Thus, rotation of the gear train 21 causes the tension spring 24 to provide a corresponding torque that is acted upon the first sliding tooth rack 22 to control upward or downward movement of the display screen mounting head 3 and the display screen 4. The first guideway 32 and the second guideway 33 assist the body block 31 to reciprocate stably and smoothly in the longitudinal direction, allowing adjustment of the elevation of the display screen 4 in a stepless manner without the use of any tool or fixation screws and keeping the display screen 4 for automatic positioning. Further, by means of stopping the stop block 2311 of the second sliding tooth rack 23 at the top or bottom end of the position-limiting slot 1121 of the box-like shaft body 11, the elevation adjustment of the display screen 4 is limited to a predetermined range, avoiding overstretch of the tension spring 24 and automatic positioning failure of the display screen 4. Thus, the user can adjust the elevation of the display screen 4 easily with less effort.

Referring to FIGS. 9 and 10, the user can adjust the torque adjustment unit 25 of the balance adjustment mechanism 2 according to the weight of the display screen 4. At this time, use a tool to rotate the screw head 2521 of the adjustment screw 252 that is disposed outside the top hole 122 of the outer cover 12, driving the screw shank 2522 in the screw hole 2511 of the stop member 251 and causing movement of the stop member 251 relative to the adjustment screw 252. At this time, the longitudinal sliding slot 2513 of the stop member 251 is moved longitudinally upward or downward relative to the guide rod 1111 of the back panel 111, and thus, the stop member 251 can adjust the tension of the tension spring 24. When the stop member 251 is moved downward, the tension spring 24 is shortened, and its tension is relatively reduced. On the contrary, when the stop member 251 is moved upward, the tension spring 24 is driven to expand, and the gear train 21 converts the tension of the tension spring 24 into torque. Thus, the adjustment screw 252 of the torque adjustment unit 25 can be fastened tighter when the load of the display screen 4 is relatively larger; on the contrary, the adjustment screw 252 of the torque adjustment unit 25 can be relatively loosened when the load of the display screen 4 is relatively smaller, allowing elevation adjustment of the display screen 4 to be smoothly performed.

As described above, the outer cover 12 is covered on the front side of the box-like shaft body 11 of the arm shaft 1; the balance adjustment mechanism 2 is mounted in the box-like shaft body 11, comprising the gear train 21, the first sliding tooth rack 22, the second sliding tooth rack 23 and the tension spring 24 that is connected to and stretchable by the second sliding tooth rack 23; the display screen mounting head 3 comprises the body block 31, the first guideway 32 and the second guideway 33; the first guideway 32 and the second guideway 33 are respectively mounted on the two side panels 112 of the box-like shaft body 11. When adjusting the elevation of the display screen 4 that is mounted on the display screen mounting head 3, the first sliding tooth rack 22 is forced to rotate the gear train 21, causing the gear train 21 to carry the second sliding tooth rack 23 and the actuating plate 232 in stretching or compression the tension spring 24, and thus, the gear train 21 converts the tension of the tension spring 24 into torque for free elevation adjustment and automatic positioning of the display screen mounting head 3 and the supported display screen 4.

Although a particular embodiment of the invention has been described in detail for purposes of illustration, various modifications and enhancements may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. Accordingly, the invention is not to be limited except as by the appended claims.
