That is, the mounting plate 131 may have various shapes as long as it may be mounted in the mounting groove 3. In addition, although the four mounting holes 132 at each corner of the mounting plate 131 are shown, the disclosure is not limited thereto. For example, the plurality of mounting holes 132 may be formed in portions other than the corners of the mounting plate 131. Accordingly, the plurality of mounting holes 132 may be formed in three or fewer, or five or more instead of four. (See FIG. 2)

The first bracket 130 may include a protrusion 133 provided to protrude to an outside of the mounting groove 3 on the mounting plate 131. The protrusion 133 may extend forward from the front of the mounting plate 131. The protrusion 133 may have a rectangular column shape. Because the protrusion 133 is in a rectangular column shape, when the wall mount 20 is fixed to the wall mount fixture 100 after the display 10 is mounted on the wall mount 20, the display 10 may be prevented or inhibited from rotating even though an external force is applied to the display 10. (See FIG. 1 and FIG. 2)

The protrusion 133 may include a fastening hole 134 into which the support screw 150 is fastened. The fastening hole 134 may be formed to penetrate the protrusion 133 in a vertical direction. The support screw 150 may be fastened to the fastening hole 134 in a lower portion of the protrusion 133. The support screw 150 may support the load of the first bracket 130 in the lower portion of the protrusion 133.

The screws S may penetrate the plurality of mounting holes 132 formed in the mounting plate 131 of the first bracket 130, and may be mounted into a plurality of bracket mounting holes 5 formed on a rear wall inside the mounting groove 3. Accordingly, the first bracket 130 may be mounted in the mounting groove 3 by the screws S.

As shown in FIG. 8 and FIG. 9, when the first bracket 130 is mounted in the mounting groove 3 by the screws S, a lower portion of the support screw 150 fastened to the fastening hole 134 of the protrusion 133 may be spaced apart from a bottom surface of the mounting groove 3.

In a state where the lower portion of the support screw 150 is spaced apart from the bottom surface of the mounting groove 3, by rotating the support screw 150 in a direction to release the support screw 150 from the fastening hole 134, the support screw 150 may be released from the fastening hole 134 and the lower portion of the support screw 150 may be supported by the bottom surface of the mounting groove 3, as shown in FIG. 10. By supporting the support screw 150 on the bottom surface of the mounting groove 3, a load of the display 10 may be distributed when the display 10 is mounted on the wall mount 20 fixed to the wall mount fixture 100, and thus the display 10 may be stably supported. (See FIG. 2)

When the support screw 150 is supported on the bottom surface of the mounting groove 3, the second bracket 140 may be fixed to the first bracket 130 by the screw S as shown in FIG. 11. The second bracket 140 may be inserted into the first bracket 130 to allow the protrusion 133 of the first bracket 130 to be received in the receiving portion 141. After the second bracket 140 is fit into the first bracket 130, the second bracket 140 may be fixed to the first bracket 130 by the screw S. That is, the screw S may penetrate the fixing hole 144 of the second bracket 140 and may be fixed to the fixing groove 135 of the first bracket 130. Accordingly, the second bracket 140 may be fixed to the first bracket 130 by the screw S. Because the second bracket 140 is fixed to the first bracket 130 by the single screw S, the second bracket 140 may be easily fixed to the first bracket 130.

As shown in FIG. 12, when the second bracket 140 is fixed to the first bracket 130 by the screw S, the extension bracket 110 may be fixed to the extension bracket fixing hole 145 of the second bracket 140. (See FIG. 2)
