1. Technical Field
The present disclosure relates to stands used in flat panel displays, and more particularly, to a height-adjustable stand for an LCD display device.
2. Description of Related Art
Generally, flat panel displays such as LCD displays are mounted on a stand that allows rotation of the display and adjustment of the height of the display area relative to the desktop. Typically, the stands use a spring or coil-type mechanism to control the height of the display, where the mechanism is designed to offset the weight of the display so that the display can be placed and remain at a desired height. However, one difficulty that often arises is that the balance between the weight of the stand and the force of the mechanism is not maintained and the stand unwontedly opens or extends to its full height or length during handling. Therefore, it is desirable to provide a new adjustable stand to overcome the aforementioned problems.
