Adjustable display bracket
First Claim
1. An adjustable mounting bracket for attachment of a display device to a mounting surface, comprising:
- a device mounting plate including a device mounting surface configured for operative attachment to the display device and a rear surface opposing the device mounting surface;
at least one device opening group configured to receive a plurality of display device fasteners characterized by a fastener head and a fastener shank engageable with the display device, the at least one device opening group comprising;
a plurality of initial device mount openings through the device mounting plate, each of the plurality of initial device mount openings including a key aperture dimensioned to receive the fastener head, an adjustment channel dimensioned to receive the fastener shank and substantially aligned with a first arc disposed about a device rotation axis substantially perpendicular to the device mounting surface, and a passage channel between the key aperture and the adjustment channel; and
a plurality of complementary device mount openings through the device mounting plate, each of the plurality of complementary device mount openings including an adjustment channel substantially aligned with the first arc; and
a surface bracket coupled to the rear surface and operatively attachable to the mounting surface,wherein the display device is selectively positionable to a rotation angle by movement of the display device about the device rotation axis as defined by relative movement of the plurality of display device fasteners in relation to the respective plurality of adjustment channels.

Abstract
A rotatably adjustable mounting bracket for attachment to a display device and a mounting system affixable to mount surface and providing rotational adjustability of the attached display about an axis substantially perpendicular to the principal plane of the display device. The device mounting bracket including at least one set of openings comprising a plurality of openings located in the plate to substantially align with mounting holes located on the display device. Each of the openings having an adjustment portion adapted to receive a portion of the display device fastener attached to the display device and moveable within the adjustment portion to permit rotational movement of the display device relative to the mounting bracket.
