Abstract
Description
- This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application Ser. No. 60/498,264, entitled “Visual Display Wall Mounting Apparatus” and filed Aug. 26, 2003, which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety.
- The present invention is directed toward visual displays and in particular, toward visual display wall mounting brackets.
- The existing visual display wall mounting brackets on the market are expensive, very heavy and cumbersome to use. They do not allow the customer to mount a thin television display (or monitor) to the wall with less than about two (2) inches of clearance between the unit and the wall.
- Most, if not all, of the current wall mount bracketry require the customer to make some sort of final adjustment to lock them together once the visual display mount bracketry and the wall mount bracketry are joined. This locking feature must be activated in order to keep the set from falling off the wall. Also, some wall mounting bracketry is made of welded subassemblies which are complicated to build and expensive. Additionally, some have multiple pieces that the customer is required to subassemble to the correct size before assembling to the visual display (or monitor).
- The present invention is a cost effective wall mounting apparatus for a visual display. The wall mounting apparatus comprises two interlocking plates that are configured to mount the visual display to a wall such that the bracketry provides a gap between the wall and the visual display of less than about two (2) inches. One of the plates is designed to be attached to the wall, while the other is affixed to the back of the visual display. The visual display is mounted to the wall by hooking the two plates together, such that the two interlocking plates contact each other in at least two places along the surfaces thereof.
- The invention is hereinafter described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:
FIGS. 1A-1D depict cross-sectional views of one embodiment of the interlocking brackets of the present invention showing a visual display being mounted to a wall;FIGS. 2A-2D depict cross-sectional views of an alternate embodiment of the interlocking brackets of the present invention showing the visual display being mounted to the wall;FIGS. 3A-3D depict cross-sectional views of an alternate embodiment of the interlocking brackets of the present invention showing a visual display being mounted to a wall;FIGS. 4A-4D depict cross-sectional views of an alternate embodiment of the interlocking brackets of the present invention showing a visual display being mounted to a wall;FIGS. 5A-5D depict cross-sectional views of an alternate embodiment of the interlocking brackets of the present invention showing a visual display being mounted to a wall;FIGS. 6A-6D depict cross-sectional views of an alternate embodiment of the interlocking brackets of the present invention showing a visual display being mounted to a wall;FIGS. 7A-7D depict front, back and side views of the interlocked brackets of the present invention; andFIG. 8 depicts an enlarged view of a portion of the interlocked brackets shown inFIG. 7B .- The present invention is a cost effective wall mounting apparatus for a visual display. The wall mounting apparatus comprises at least two interlocking plates that are configured to mount the visual display to a wall such that the bracketry provides a gap between the wall and the visual display of less than about two (2) inches. One of the plates is designed to be attached to the wall, while the other is affixed to the back of the visual display. The visual display is mounted to the wall by hooking the two plates together, such that the two interlocking plates contact each other in at least two places along the surfaces thereof.
- The interlocking plates should be formed of a material, such as for example metal (steel, aluminum (Al)) or plastic, with sufficient strength to support a load of up to about 200 pounds without deforming. The interlocking plates may be made using any suitable process such as for example sheet metal forming, roll forming, die casting and extrusion, among others.
- Referring to
FIGS. 1A-1D , the interlocking plates may be made from two stamped sheet metal parts. One interlockingplate 2 is designed to be mounted to the back of the visual display (television) and the other interlockingplate 4 is designed to be mounted to the wall (FIG. 1A ). Interlockingplate 2 includes aportion 8 which extends a fixed distance away from the back of the visual display, that in conjunction with a portion7 of interlockingplate 4 that also extends a fixed distance away from the wall, defines an air gap between the display and the wall of less than about two-inches when interlockingplate 2 is attached to interlockingplate 4. Theportions 7,8 may have the same or different lengths.Interlocking plate 2 also includes ahooking portion 10 that contacts an area of a surface of the portion7 of interlockingplate 4 when interlockingplate 2 is attached to interlocking plate4 (FIG. 1D ).Interlocking plate 4 also includes a hooking portion9 that contacts an area of a surface of theportion 8 of interlockingplate 2 when interlockingplate 2 is attached to interlocking plate4 (FIG. 1D ). - To mount the visual display to the wall, interlocking
plate 2 is positioned against interlocking plate4 (FIG. 1B ). Gradually releasing the weight of the visual display attached to interlocking plate2 (FIG. 1C ) and letting gravity take overseats interlocking plate 2 on interlocking plate4 (FIG. 1D ) holding the visual display a fixed distance from the wall. The visual display is mounted to the wall by hooking the twointerlocking plates interlocking plates FIG. 1D hooking portion 10 of interlockingplate 2 contacts an area of the surface of portion7 and hooking portion9 contacts an area of the surface of portion8). Generous entry clearances for the hookingportions 9,10 make it easy to interlock the twoplates - The
interlocking plates - For the embodiment depicted in
FIGS. 1A-1D , portion7 of interlockingplate 4 is flat, extending perpendicularly away from the wall. Alternatively, interlockingplate 4 may include an angled portion extending away from the wall and a flat portion extending away from the angled portion (FIGS. 3A-3D ).Interlocking plate 4 may also alternatively include a flat portion, an angled portion and a backstop portion (FIGS. 2A-2D ). - Referring to
FIGS. 4A-4D ,5A-5D and6A-6D, the interlockingplates elongate sections plates - Referring to
FIGS. 7A-7D , front, back and side views of interlocked plates are shown. As depictedplate 2 may be longer in length thanplate 4 to permit side-to-side adjustment for the visual display. Additionally, referring toFIG. 8 , end stops30 onplate 2 prevent the visual display from sliding out of the bracket sideways. - Further, while the depictions shown illustrate only one set of brackets being used to affix the visual display to the wall, it is contemplated that more than one set may also be used.
