Abstract

The invention relates to a monitor supporting module including: two supporting stands fixed to a placing space, two fixing stands disposed on the rear of a flat panel display, two guide bars and two guide rails. The setting positions of the guide bars are corresponding to the guide rails. Each guide rail includes a notch, a first horizontal guide section, a vertical guide section and a second horizontal guide section. Each guide bar is guided to a corresponding notch through its protruded end edge and slides through the guide sections for completing the installation. The guide rails are respectively formed on corresponding supporting stands, and the guide bars are protruded from one side of corresponding fixing stands. Or, the guide bars are respectively disposed on corresponding supporting stands and the guide rails are formed on corresponding fixing stands.
