Mobile overhead monitor bracket stand
View Patent ↗A mobile overhead monitor bracket stand is a floor mounted video monitor stand. The stand is provided with a heavy base, complete with five (5) or more locking casters that allow it to easily roll around the floor. The base then provides a central shaft, adjustable in length, that extends upward. The top of the shaft is then provided with a rotating side arm complete with multiple adjustable angle joints that rotate one-hundred-eighty degrees (180°) as well as extend in length, that terminate in a standard VESA mounting bracket for a mounting almost any size of monitor within the weight limits of the invention. The monitor could be positioned in a vertical (standard) position, or be placed in an inverted, or upside down, manner over a user in an inclined chair. This will allow for comfortable and relaxed computer usage, social media viewing, or computer gaming. The device would also be provided with another VESA mounting bracket on the main central shaft for mounting of a second monitor for use in conventional desk-style viewing or for viewing by spectators in a competitive computer gaming environment. Certain models of the device would also be provided with an integral lighting system as well as enclosed wiring channels.
