Independently-rotating computing device display mounting system
A computing device display mounting system includes an offset bracket having a display system mounting member that mounts to a display stand system, and a computing device mounting member that mounts to a computing device. The computing device display mounting system also includes a rotation bracket that is movably coupled to the display system mounting member on the offset bracket such that the rotation bracket is configured to rotate relative to the offset bracket. The rotation bracket includes at least one display mounting element that is coupled to a display. The movable coupling of the rotation bracket to the display system mounting member allows the display to rotate relative to the computing device.

a rotation bracket that is movably coupled to the display system mounting member on the offset bracket such that the rotation bracket is configured to rotate relative to the offset bracket, wherein the rotation bracket includes:
at least one display mounting element that is coupled to the display, wherein the movable coupling of the rotation bracket to the display system mounting member allows the display to rotate relative to the computing device.
8. The IHS of claim 7 , further comprising:
a reduced-friction element that is included between the rotation bracket and the display system mounting member.
9. The IHS of claim 7 , further comprising:
a clamping plate that is mounted to the display system mounting member with the rotation bracket located between the clamping plate and the display mounting member and movable relative to the clamping plate and the display system mounting member.
10. The IHS of claim 9 , further comprising:
a reduced-friction element that is included between the clamping plate and the rotation bracket.
11. The IHS of claim 7 , further comprising:
a rotation stop member that is included on the rotation bracket and that is configured to limit the rotation of the rotation bracket relative to the offset bracket to a predefined arc length.
12. The IHS of claim 11 , wherein the predefined arc length is ninety degrees.
13. The IHS of claim 7 , further comprising:
a display stand system latching subsystem that is included on the display system mounting member and that is configured to couple the offset display system mounting member to the display stand system and decouple the offset display system mounting member from the display stand system without the use of tools.
14. A method for mounting a computing device to a display, comprising:
mounting, by an offset bracket that includes a display system mounting member, to a display stand system via the display system mounting member;
mounting, by the offset bracket that includes a computing device mounting member that extends from the display system mounting member such that there is no relative movement between the display system mounting member and the computing device mounting member, to a computing device via the computing device mounting member such that movement of the computing device relative to the display system mounting member is prevented;
coupling, by a rotation bracket that is movably coupled to the display system mounting member on the offset bracket and that includes at least one display mounting element, to the display via the at least one display mounting element; and
rotating, by the rotation bracket, relative to the offset bracket in order to rotate the display relative to the computing device.
