Abstract

A wall mount for a display apparatus comprises: a mount holder including a first fixing portion coupleable to a wall surface and a second fixing portion coupleable to the first fixing part; and a body including a coupling bracket coupleable to the display apparatus and a mounting hole insertable into and coupleable to a gap between the first fixing portion and the second fixing portion of the mount holder while the second fixing portion is coupled to the first fixing portion, where the second fixing portion is rotatable in a first direction and a second direction opposite the first direction so that a width of the gap is adjusted according to the second fixing portion being rotated in the first direction and the second direction.

Claims (32)

1. A wall mount for a display apparatus, the wall mount comprising:

a mount holder including a first fixing portion coupleable to a wall surface by a fixing screw, and a second fixing portion coupleable to the first fixing portion; and

a body including a coupling bracket coupleable to the display apparatus and a mounting hole insertable into a gap between the first fixing portion and the second fixing portion of the mount holder while the second fixing portion is coupled to the first fixing portion,

wherein the second fixing portion is rotatable in a first direction and a second direction opposite to the first direction so that a width of the gap is adjusted according to the second fixing portion being rotated in the first direction and the second direction.

2. The wall mount of claim 1 , wherein a lower end portion of the mounting hole has a diameter larger than an outer diameter of the mount holder and an upper end portion of the mounting hole has a diameter smaller than the diameter of the lower end portion of the mounting hole.

3. The wall mount of claim 2 , wherein the body comprises a clasp formed at an upper end of the mounting hole, and

the clasp is configured to be rotatable along a vertical direction of the display apparatus so that the clasp rotates from a higher position to a lower position along the vertical direction while the mount holder is coupled to the body to prevent separation of the mount holder.

4. The wall mount of claim 1 , wherein the body comprises a plurality of bracket coupling portions to which the coupling bracket is coupleable, and the coupling bracket is selectively coupleable to a bracket coupling portion among the plurality of bracket coupling portions.

5. The wall mount of claim 4 , wherein the coupling bracket comprises a fixed bracket fixed to the bracket coupling portion and a rotating bracket configured to fix the display apparatus and be tiltably hinged to the fixed bracket.

6. The wall mount of claim 1 , wherein

the wall mount comprises a stand coupleable to a lower end of the body to support the body,

wherein the stand comprises a body coupling portion coupleable to the body and a bottom surface configured to support the body coupling portion.

7. The wall mount of claim 6 , wherein the body comprises a plurality of body holes spaced apart along a vertical direction, and the body coupling portion comprises a stand hole fixed to any hole among the plurality of body holes using a coupling screw.

8. The wall mount of claim 1 , wherein the body comprises:

a cable accommodating portion including a front which is open;

a cable holder positionable in the cable accommodating portion; and

a body cover configured to cover the front of the body.

9. A wall mount for a display apparatus, the wall mount comprising:

a mount holder including a first fixing portion coupleable to a wall surface and a second fixing portion coupleable to the first fixing portion; and

a body including a coupling bracket coupleable to the display apparatus and a mounting hole insertable into a gap between the first fixing portion and the second fixing portion of the mount holder while the second fixing portion is coupled to the first fixing portion,

wherein the second fixing portion is rotatable in a first direction and a second direction opposite to the first direction so that a width of the gap is adjusted according to the second fixing portion being rotated in the first direction and the second direction,

the body comprises a plurality of bracket coupling portions to which the coupling bracket is coupleable, and the coupling bracket is selectively coupleable to a bracket coupling portion among the plurality of bracket coupling portions, and

the coupling bracket comprises a fixed bracket fixed to the bracket coupling portion and a rotating bracket configured to fix the display apparatus and be tiltably hinged to the fixed bracket.

10. A wall mount for a display apparatus, the wall mount comprising:

a mount holder including a first fixing portion coupleable to a wall surface and a second fixing portion coupleable to the first fixing portion; and

a body including:

a cable accommodating portion including a front which is open,

a cable holder positionable in the cable accommodating portion,

a body cover configured to cover the front of the body,

a coupling bracket coupleable to the display apparatus, and

a mounting hole insertable into a gap between the first fixing portion and the second fixing portion of the mount holder while the second fixing portion is coupled to the first fixing portion,

wherein the second fixing portion is rotatable in a first direction and a second direction opposite to the first direction so that a width of the gap is adjusted according to the second fixing portion being rotated in the first direction and the second direction.
