Patent ID: 7448581

Claim:
A display apparatus having a display main body adapted to display an image, a base part adapted to be mounted on an installation surface and supporting the display main body, and a stand part provided between the base part and the display main body, comprising: a first hinge part disposed between the display main body and the stand part and adapted to rotate the stand part proximal a rear surface of the display main body; a second hinge part disposed between the stand part and the base part, and adapted to rotate the base part between a supporting position where the base part is substantially perpendicular to the rear surface of the display main body and a folding position where the base part is substantially parallel to the rear surface of the display main body; and a locking assembly that prevents and allows the base part from being and to be rotated between the supporting position and the folding position, the locking assembly including a projection connected to one of the stand part and the base part; and a coupling unit connected to the other one of the stand part and the base part and adapted to couple to the projection to prevent the base part from being rotated, and adapted to uncouple the projection to allow the base part to be rotated, the coupling unit including a casing part having a first side thereof adapted to couple to the stand part and a second side thereof adapted to couple to the base part; and a coupling part slidably coupled in the casing part, and adapted to couple to the projection and adapted to uncouple from the projection.
