Abstract

A three-stage display panel mount is an apparatus used to mount a display screen on a vertical wall, but the apparatus allows a user extend the display screen from vertical wall and rotate the display screen to be perpendicular to the vertical wall. The three-stage display panel includes a first-stage frame, a pair to scissor mechanisms, a pair of gas-spring struts, a second-stage frame, and a third-stage frame. The first-stage frame mounts the apparatus on the vertical wall. The pair of scissor mechanisms allows the second-stage frame to extend away from the first-stage frame, and the pair of gas-spring struts stabilizes the movement of the second-stage frame. The third-stage frame can rotate the display panel away from the second-stage frame and includes a pair of collapsible angles, which can either position the display panel parallel to the vertical wall or support the display panel perpendicular to the vertical wall.
