  • Patent number: 11073236
    Abstract: A display apparatus includes a display monitor and a height adjustment mechanism. The display monitor has a frame with a height adjustment slot. The height adjustment mechanism includes abase fixed in the frame, a sheet structure disposed in the frame in a laterally slidable manner, a sliding plate, and a support stand passing through the height adjustment slot to be connected to the sliding plate such that the frame could be movable relative to the support stand. The sliding plate is slidably disposed in the base and has an abutting structure abutting under the sheet structure. When the frame is located at a high position, the abutting structure and the sheet structure cover the height adjustment slot. When the frame moves to a low position, the support stand relatively moves upward along the height adjustment slot to make the abutting structure push the sheet structure to slide laterally.
