Abstract
A computer system includes a monitor assembled with a main body. The computer system further has a swiveling member installed between the main body and the monitor, for allowing the monitor to be laterally swivelled relative to the main body, and a tilting member assembled with the swiveling member, for allowing the monitor to be tilted transversely relative to the swiveling movement of the swiveling member. With this configuration, the monitor can be tilted and swiveled relative to the main body.

37. A method, comprising:
-
disassembling a top cover from a main body of a computer system, said main body having a plurality of electrical components controlling the computer system;
disposing a base part of a first bracket in a bracket accommodating portion of said main body;
securing said first bracket to said bracket accommodating portion by inserting fastening members into respective holes of said first bracket and said bracket accommodating portion, said first bracket having a first hinge hole;
attaching a portion of a second bracket upon said base part, said second bracket rotatably coupled relative to said first bracket and having a second hinge hole aligned with the first hinge hole;
inserting a pin into the first and second hinge holes for coupling said second bracket with said first bracket;
inserting a projection formed on said second bracket into an elongated hole formed on said first bracket, the elongated hole having a form of a cam profile and formed through the plane of said first bracket;
securing a shaft into a shaft accommodating portion of said second bracket with a fastening member;
inserting in sequence a ring member, a twisted coil spring and a third bracket into each end of said shaft with a plurality of washers between each, said third bracket rotatable along a circumference of said shaft, said ring member being circular and having a rib, said ring member being disposed within a cut part of said third bracket, said twisted coil springs compensating a center of gravity of a monitor relative to said main body;
disposing a coupling part of said third bracket in a bracket accommodating portion of said monitor, said monitor providing a variable video display from the data of said main body; and
fastening said third bracket to said monitor.
