    Abstract: A mounting assembly to mount a tablet to the support of a seating assembly includes a slide rod mounted to the underside of the tablet, a pivot shaft mounted to and extending forwardly from a support, and a slide member pivotably mounted to the pivot shaft and slidably mounted to the slide rod. The slide member includes a pivot shaft mounting portion defining a passage within which the pivot shaft is received, and a slide rod mounting portion within which the slide rod is slidably received. The slide rod and pivot shaft mounting portions define passages within which the slide rod and pivot shaft, respectively, are received, with the passages being oriented at an angle to each other. A stop arrangement is interposed between the pivot shaft and the pivot shaft mounting portion of the slide member for controlling the range of pivoting movement of the slide member, and thereby the tablet, relative to the pivot shaft.
