1. A display support apparatus for supporting a display at a user selected position relative to a support structure, the display support apparatus comprising:
- a base adapted for attachment to the support structure;
a first arm having a range of rotation about a first pivot axis between the first arm and the base, the first pivot axis extending through a first end portion of the first arm;
a second arm having a range of rotation about a second pivot axis between the first arm and the second arm, the second pivot axis being located at a proximal end portion of the second arm; and
a recess and a detent, the recess being configured to receive the detent when the second arm is in a resting position relative to the first arm, wherein the recess is configured to limit movement of the second arm relative to the first arm about the second pivot axis when the second arm is in the resting position, and to permit movement of the second arm from the resting position, in which the detent is positioned within the recess, to an extended position in which the second arm is moved relative to the first arm about a transverse axis angled relative to the second pivot axis, wherein, in the extended position, the recess is separated from the detent.

Abstract
The display supporting apparatus includes a base, a first arm, a second arm, and a display attachment bracket designed to be fixedly securable or attachable to a display. The display support apparatus further includes a mechanism for providing a constant orientation in relation to the base for the plane bisecting the range of rotation of the second arm about the pivot axis between the first arm and the second arm even as the first arm moves pivotally relative to the base.
