Vertical-tilt mechanism for display mount with eccentric gear

1. A device comprising:

a main fixing plate configured to be coupled to a wall-mounting bracket, the main fixing plate comprising an inner gear wheel;

a display-mounting bracket configured to removably couple to a backside of an electronic display, wherein:

the display-mounting bracket is configured to vertically tilt, relative to the main fixing plate, about a tilt axis passing through a pivot point of both the display-mounting bracket and the main fixing plate,

the display-mounting bracket comprises a proximal extension extending proximally to the pivot point, and

the proximal extension comprises an eccentric gear comprising a locking shaft, the eccentric gear being configured to engage with the inner gear wheel of the main fixing plate;

a tension spring comprising a lower end coupled to the main fixing plate, and an upper end coupled to the locking shaft of the eccentric gear, such that the tension spring retains a vertical-tilt orientation of the display-mounting bracket relative to the main fixing plate; and

an adjustment screw coupled to the lower end of the tension spring, wherein rotation of the adjustment screw expands or compresses the tension spring.

2. The device of claim 1 , wherein the upper end of the tension spring defines a hook configured to hang on the locking shaft of the eccentric gear.

3. The device of claim 1 , wherein a bottom end of the adjustment screw comprises an adjustment knob.

4. The device of claim 1 , wherein the lower end of the tension spring is coupled to the main fixing plate via the adjustment screw, and wherein the adjustment screw is pivotably coupled to the main fixing plate via a fixed spring-rotation shaft oriented parallel to the tilt axis.

5. The device of claim 1 , further comprising a screw sleeve disposed within the tension spring, the screw sleeve configured to receive a top end of the adjustment screw.

6. The device of claim 1 , further comprising an extendable arm coupled between the wall-mounting bracket and the main fixing plate, the extendable arm configured to extend the electronic display distally away from a wall.

7. The device of claim 6 , wherein the elongated arm comprises a proximal arm portion and a distal arm portion, wherein the distal arm portion is configured to swivel relative to the proximal arm portion to extend the electronic display distally away from the wall.

8. The device of claim 6 , wherein the eccentric gear defines an eccentric angle of about 20 degrees.

9. The device of claim 1 , further comprising a pivot screw aligned with the tilt axis, the pivot screw configured to increase or decrease a frictional damping force between the display-mounting bracket and the main fixing plate.

10. The device of claim 1 , further comprising the wall-mounting bracket.

11. The device of claim 1 , wherein the adjustment screw extends upward through a bottom side of the main fixing plate.

12. A system comprising:

a wall-mounting bracket configured to removably couple to a wall;

a main fixing plate coupled to the wall-mounting bracket, the main fixing plate comprising an inner gear wheel;

a display-mounting bracket configured to removably couple to a backside of an electronic display, wherein:

the display-mounting bracket is configured to vertically tilt, relative to the main fixing plate, about a tilt axis passing through a pivot point of both the display-mounting bracket and the main fixing plate,

the display-mounting bracket comprises a proximal extension extending proximally to the pivot point, and

the proximal extension comprises an eccentric gear comprising a locking shaft, the eccentric gear being configured to engage with the inner gear wheel of the main fixing plate;

a tension spring comprising a lower end coupled to the main fixing plate, and an upper end coupled to the locking shaft of the eccentric gear, such that the tension spring retains a vertical-tilt orientation of the display-mounting bracket relative to the main fixing plate; and

an adjustment screw coupled to the lower end of the tension spring, wherein rotation of the adjustment screw expands or compresses the tension spring.

13. The system of claim 12 , wherein the upper end of the tension spring defines a hook configured to hang on the locking shaft of the eccentric gear.

14. The system of claim 12 , wherein a bottom end of the adjustment screw comprises an adjustment knob.

15. The system of claim 12 , wherein the lower end of the tension spring is coupled to the main fixing plate via the adjustment screw, and wherein the adjustment screw is pivotably coupled to the main fixing plate via a fixed spring-rotation shaft oriented parallel to the tilt axis.

16. The system of claim 12 , the mounting device further comprising a screw sleeve disposed within the tension spring, the screw sleeve configured to receive a top end of the adjustment screw.

17. The system of claim 12 , the mounting device further comprising an extendable arm coupled between the wall-mounting bracket and the main fixing plate, the extendable arm configured to extend the electronic display distally away from the wall.

18. The system of claim 17 , wherein the elongated arm comprises a proximal arm portion and a distal arm portion, wherein the distal arm portion is configured to swivel relative to the proximal arm portion to extend the electronic display distally away from the wall.

19. The system of claim 12 , wherein the eccentric gear defines an eccentric angle of about 20 degrees.

20. A method comprising:

providing a main fixing plate defining an inner gear wheel;

providing a display-mounting bracket configured to removably couple to a backside of an electronic display, the display-mounting bracket comprising a proximal extension extending proximally to a pivot point, and the proximal extension comprising an eccentric gear comprising a locking shaft;

providing a tension spring and an adjustment screw coupled to a lower end of the tension spring; and

providing instructions comprising:

engaging the eccentric gear with the inner gear wheel of the main fixing plate;

coupling the lower end of the tension spring to the main fixing plate; and

coupling an upper end of the tension spring to the locking shaft of the eccentric gear, such that:

the display-mounting bracket is configured to vertically tilt, relative to the main fixing plate, about a tilt axis passing through the pivot point;

the tension spring retains a vertical-tilt orientation of the display-mounting bracket relative to the main fixing plate; and

rotation of the adjustment screw expands or compresses the tension spring.
