Abstract

The invention discloses a mounting apparatus of displayer suitable for external installation and inset installation by applying a modularized design with two aspects of installation method. One of the methods is that a displayer frame is fastened on a supporting rack by means of a joint portion located at the backside of displayer frame to form a displayer frame for an external displayer. On the other hand, the modularized displayer frame is also applicable to a mounting apparatus of displayer for inset installation. This method is first to provide a pair of removable fastening sheets at two sides of displayer frame so as to form an assembling area at the outer wall of two sides of displayer frame. Then, a pair of positioning members will be joined together through two sides of a base so that a connecting portion with flexibility provided as a protrusion can be formed at the inner wall of each of two sides of base. Finally, the assembling area of displayer frame can be joined to the connecting portion at the inner wall of base and thus form the mounting apparatus of displayer for inset installation.

Claims

1. A mounting apparatus of displayer suitable for external installation and inset installation, comprising:

a base including;

a lateral surrounding wall including an inner surface and an outer surface, the inner surface defining an accommodation space therein, and

a vent-hole on the lateral surrounding wall

a displayer frame pivotally installed inside the accommodating space of the base, whereas a joint portion is provided at a backside of the displayer frame;

a pair of positioning members connected to two opposite sides of the outer surface, each of the pair of positioning members including;

a connecting portion protruding therefrom and entering through the lateral surrounding wall into the accommodating space,

a groove facing the vent-hole, and

a sloping plane; and

a pair of fastening sheets provided symmetrically, and both joined at two opposite sides of the displayer frame and in contact with the inner surface, wherein an assembling area is formed on each of the fastening sheets for lodging the connecting portion of the corresponding positioning member, the vent-hole being insertable by a dismounting tool through the groove for pushing the sloping plane so as to detach the connecting portion from the assembling area.

2. The mounting apparatus of displayer suitable for external installation and inset installation of claim 1, wherein the joint portion of displayer frame can be installed on a supporting rack that supports the displayer frame.

3. The mounting apparatus of displayer suitable for external installation and inset installation of claim 1, wherein the connecting portion is a protruded end whereas the assembling area is a hole.

4. The mounting apparatus of displayer suitable for external installation and inset installation of claim 1, wherein the connecting portion is a hole whereas the assembling area is a protruded end.

5. The mounting apparatus of displayer suitable for external installation and inset installation of claim 1, wherein a through-hole is provided on the base, and the connecting portion penetrates the through-hole.

6. The mounting apparatus of displayer suitable for external installation and inset installation of claim 1, wherein a slit is provided along the edge of the connecting portion.

7. The mounting apparatus of displayer suitable for external installation and inset installation of claim 1, wherein a plurality of through-slots are provided at two sides of the lateral surrounding wall of the base, wherein a releasing slot and the through-hole are located between the through-slots, wherein a curbing block is provided on each of the positioning members and includes a plurality of concaved points, wherein a lodging point is provided on each of the pair of fastening sheets, and wherein an angle fine-tuning for positioning can be made through the joining between the lodging points and the concaved points.

8. The mounting apparatus of displayer suitable for external installation and inset installation of claim 7, wherein an angle pivoting can be generated between the displayer frame and the base by using the connecting portion as a pivot, and the angle fine-tuning made between the lodging points and the concaved points is guided by a contacting wall between the displayer frame and the base.
