RETRACTABLE DISPLAY
A retractable display may erect from a display housing cavity and tilt to a specified angle for optimum display characteristics. One example may include at least one of a display housing cavity, a display, a track mounted to the display inside the display housing cavity, and a lead screw disposed on the track which rotationally raises the track and the display out of the display housing cavity.
1 . An apparatus, comprising:
a display housing cavity;
a display;
a track mounted to the display inside the display housing cavity; and
a lead screw disposed on the track which rotationally raises the track and the display out of the display housing cavity.
2 . The apparatus of claim 1 , further comprising:
a motor disposed in the display housing cavity; and
a rotational drive nut connected to the lead screw and rotated by the motor to raise the track and the display out of the display housing cavity.
3 . The apparatus of claim 2 , wherein the motor is an inline drive motor disposed directly under the lead screw which is disposed in a center portion of the track and the display housing cavity.
4 . The apparatus of claim 2 , wherein the motor is a 90 degree drive motor disposed under the track.
5 . The apparatus of claim 1 , further comprising:
at least one guiding rod and bushing disposed in parallel with the lead screw to guide the track and the display out of the display housing cavity.
6 . The apparatus of claim 1 , further comprising:
a tilt rotation motor comprising a rotational axis to rotate the display once the display is erected outside the display housing cavity.
7 . The apparatus of claim 1 , further comprising:
a two-pin two-track tilt mechanism wherein one track is uniform and the second track has a curved top portion which permits a top pin to secure a tilted position in the second track.
8 . The apparatus of claim 1 , further comprising:
a wedge disposed on the track; and
a round bar and hook tilt mechanism wherein the hook rests against the round bar and the wedge rests against a surface of the display housing cavity to secure a tilted position of the display.
9 . The apparatus of claim 1 , further comprising:
a torsion spring;
a ramp affixed to a surface of the display housing; and
a roller affixed to the torsion spring to secure a tilted position of the display against the ramp.
10 . The apparatus of claim 1 , further comprising:
a tilt motor;
a drive belt;
a top sprocket affixed to the display on a first end of the drive belt; and
a bottom sprocket affixed to the tilt motor on a second end of the drive belt to rotate a tilted position of the display.
11 . An apparatus, comprising:
a display housing cavity;
a track mounted inside the display housing cavity; and
a lead screw disposed on the track which rotationally raises the track of the display housing cavity.
12 . The apparatus of claim 11 , further comprising:
a motor disposed in the display housing cavity; and
a rotational drive nut connected to the lead screw and rotated by the motor to raise the track and a display out of the display housing cavity, wherein the track is mounted to the display.
13 . The apparatus of claim 12 , wherein the motor is an inline drive motor disposed directly under the lead screw which is disposed in a center portion of the track and the display housing cavity.
14 . The apparatus of claim 12 , wherein the motor is a 90 degree drive motor disposed under the track.
15 . The apparatus of claim 12 , further comprising:
at least one guiding rod and bushing disposed in parallel with the lead screw to guide the track and the display out of the display housing cavity.
16 . The apparatus of claim 12 , further comprising:
a tilt rotation motor comprising a rotational axis to rotate the display once the display is erected outside the display housing cavity.
17 . The apparatus of claim 11 , further comprising:
a two-pin two-track tilt mechanism wherein one track is uniform and the second track has a curved top portion which permits a top pin to secure a tilted position in the second track.
18 . The apparatus of claim 12 , further comprising:
a wedge disposed on the track; and
a round bar and hook tilt mechanism wherein the hook rests against the round bar and the wedge rests against a surface of the display housing cavity to secure a tilted position of the display.
19 . The apparatus of claim 12 , further comprising:
a torsion spring;
a ramp affixed to a surface of the display housing; and
a roller affixed to the torsion spring to secure a tilted position of the display against the ramp.
20 . The apparatus of claim 12 , further comprising:
a tilt motor;
a drive belt;
a top sprocket affixed to the display on a first end of the drive belt; and
a bottom sprocket affixed to the tilt motor on a second end of the drive belt to rotate a tilted position of the display.
