1. A mounting device for a display device, comprising:
- a mounting bracket coupled to the underside of a body, the mounting bracket including a first mating portion;
a pivot bracket coupled to the mounting bracket at one end thereof;
a tilt block rotatably coupled to the pivot bracket for rotation about an axis substantially parallel to the body;
a carriage bolt rotatably coupled to the tilt block for rotation about an axis substantially perpendicular to the body; and
a display system bracket operatively connected to the carriage bolt, the display system bracket including a second mating portion, and a cover piece coupled to the mounting bracket, the cover piece and mounting bracket arranged to allow the passage of a cord therethrough, wherein the first mating portion removably engages the second mating portion to fix the position of the display system bracket in a fully retracted position.

Abstract
A mounting device for a display device comprising a mounting bracket coupled to the underside of a body and a pivot bracket coupled to the mounting bracket. A pivot bracket is coupled to the mounting bracket at one end thereof. A tilt block is coupled to the pivot bracket and is rotatable about an axis substantially parallel to the body. A carriage bolt is coupled to the tilt block and is rotatable about an axis substantially perpendicular to the body. A display system bracket is operatively connected to the carriage bolt. An interface bracket is connected to the display system bracket and is capable of engaging a display device.
