BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to adjustable dual-screen monitor stand technology and more particularly to an adjustable dual-screen monitor stand, which comprises a base member having an upright post, two supporting bushing set mounted on the upright post of the base member at different elevations, and two cantilever swivel screen mounts respectively mounted on the supporting bushing sets to support a respective flat display monitor, allowing adjustment of the angular position of each flat display monitor individually.
2. Description of the Related Art
In the era of global technology advances, advanced and sophisticated electronic and electrical products have been continuously created. A television or computer uses a display monitor for video output. For the disadvantages of large size, poor picture quality and being incapable of receiving digital signals, the old CRT type display monitor has been gradually out of the market and replaced by a LCD or plasma type display monitor that has the advantages of having light and thin characteristics, good picture quality and being capable of receiving analog and digital signals. However, it is not easy to adjust the center of gravity of a display monitor having light and thin characteristics. When rotating or adjusting the angular position of a display monitor on a stand, it is very important to check the center of gravity of the display monitor, preventing forward or backward turnover of the display monitor. Further, the angle adjustment range of a display monitor on a conventional display monitor stand is quite narrow. Some people may directly affix a display monitor to an upright wall using a display monitor rack, preventing display monitor turnover. However, this mounting method does not allow adjustment of the angular position of the display monitor. Due to position and angle limitations, the application of the display monitor is limited. This method is normally used to affix a display monitor in a corner area in a room or building.
In the registration and payment counters in hospitals, bank and post office counters, ticket counters, offices, and many other places where multiple display monitors are used by various staffs at the same time, display monitor stands are provided to support individual display monitors for individual staffs. Because every single display monitor needs to be supported on one respective display monitor stand and because a relatively larger display monitor stand must be used for supporting a relatively larger display monitor, the installation of a large amount of display monitors in a counter or office occupies a large installation space, narrowing the available tabletop or desktop surface area and affecting the working of the staffs. Further, conventional display monitor stands do not allow a wide angle adjustment of the angular position of the supported display monitor. Further, there is limitation on the installation location of a conventional display monitor stand, making the application inconvenient. In a bank counter, post office counter or public organization counter, two display monitor stands may be arranged on the top of the counter to support two display monitors in reversed directions in front of each staff chair so that the staff can watch the displayed data on the inward-facing display monitor and the visitor can watch the displayed data on the outward-facing display monitor. However, the installation of two display monitors in one location occupies much the surface area of the top of the counter, narrowing the available surface area for application and bringing inconvenience.
Therefore, it is desirable to provide an adjustable display monitor stand, which is practical for supporting two display monitors, requires less installation surface space, and allows a wide angle adjustment of the supported display monitors.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention has been accomplished under the circumstances in view. It is the main object of the present invention to provide an adjustable dual-screen monitor stand, which is simple and inexpensive to manufacture and practical for supporting two flat display monitors, allowing adjustment of the angular position of each supported flat display monitor individually, requiring less installation space, and preventing falling of the supported flat display monitor during angular position adjustment.
To achieve this and other objects of the present invention, an adjustable dual-screen monitor stand comprises a base member having an upright post, a supporting bushing set comprising an upper bushing and a lower bushing mounted on the upright post of the base at different elevations, a first cantilever swivel screen mount comprising a first lower swivel arm, a first upper swivel arm and a first screen holder pivotally coupled to one another and pivotally supported on the upper bushing to hold a first flat display monitor, allowing adjustment of the angular position of the supported first flat display monitor, and a second cantilever swivel screen mount comprising a second lower swivel arm, a second upper swivel arm and a second screen holder pivotally coupled to one another and pivotally supported on the lower bushing to hold a second flat display monitor, allowing adjustment of the angular position of the supported second flat display monitor. The supporting bushing set and the first and second cantilever swivel screen mounts are simple in structure, facilitating fabrication, installation and adjustment of the angular position of each supported flat display monitor.
Further, the base member comprises an anchoring component located at a bottom side thereof. Thus, the adjustable dual-screen monitor stand can be conveniently fastened to the tabletop of a table or the desktop of a desk using the anchoring component. Further, stop designs are provided in the upper and lower bushings of the supporting bushing set and the upper and lower swivel arms of the first and second cantilever swivel screen mounts, limiting the angle of rotation of the upper and lower swivel arms relative to the upper and lower bushings and avoiding forward or backward falling of the flat display monitors that are respectively mounted on the first and second screen holders of the first and second cantilever swivel screen mounts. The ergonomic design of the supporting bushing set facilitates adjustment of the angular positions of the first and second cantilever swivel screen mounts relative to the upright post of the base member.
Further, the first and second cantilever swivel screen mounts are respectively and angularly adjustably mounted on the upper and lower bushings of the supporting bushing set to hold the respective flat display monitors on the first and second screen holders, allowing adjustment of the angular positions of the two supported flat display monitors in the same direction or in different directions. The upper and lower bushings of the supporting bushing set share the same base member for supporting the first and second cantilever swivel screen mounts, saving much tabletop or desktop surface area.
Other advantages and features of the present invention will be fully understood by reference to the following specification in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, in which like reference signs denote like components of structure.
