Abstract: A support arm system for a load such as a display device. The system includes a support arm rotatable at its proximal end about a mid joint axis, monitor supporting head at the distal end of the support arm has an internal slider element and compression spring, and an arrangement of links and pivots which create a torque to oppose the torque created by a load on the head and keep a monitor plate in the same viewing plane relative to the vertical as the arm moves through its range of movement.

Abstract: A mounting system for pivotally mounting a load such as display device to a support arm including a device mounting element for supporting a display, a hoop element defined by a portion of the circumference of a circle, and a support arm mount slidable along relative to, and rotatable about relative to, the hoop. A support system for supporting a load such as a display device includes a mount for a load, a base element and a support arm coupling the mount and base element at, respectively, distal and proximal portions of the support arm, and pivotally connected to at least the base element.

Abstract: A display monitor support system comprising a vertical post (3) on which an arm (2) is pivotally mounted. The vertical position of the arm (2) relative to the post (3) can be adjusted by fitting an O-ring into one of several annular recesses (12) provided along the length of the post (3), the arm resting on the O-ring and being supported thereby. The arm (2) is preferably in two sections (2A,2B) pivotally connected by pin (6). A universal joint (5) is provided at the end of the arm (2) to which a quick-release mechanism (4) is attached, said mechanism including a mounting plate (98) connected to the monitor (1).
