US Patent 7447006 Monitor

A monitor including a monitor main body, a stand supporting the monitor, and a link connecting the monitor main body with the stand, the monitor including a hinge allowing the monitor main body to be tilted about the stand between a first tilting state such as a standing state and a second tilting state such as a wall-mounting state; a locking unit provided in the hinge, rotating integrally with the monitor main body, and including a first locker corresponding to the first tilting state and a second locker corresponding to the second tilting state; and a stopper coupled to the link, sliding within the first locker and the second locker, and restricting a tilting angle of the monitor main body by contacting the first locker and the second locker. With this configuration, the present general inventive concept provides a monitor of which a monitor main body is smoothly and easily tilted about a stand between a standing state and a wall-mounting state.
