  • Publication number: 20250221530
    Abstract: A wall mount for a television or monitor includes a display interface that is selectively adjustable in height above the floor with a rotatable screw that shifts the display interface up or down depending on the direction of rotation of the screw. An extendable telescoping handle can be provided that extends below the television or monitor to enable rotational adjustment of the screw, and can be slid back within the screw so as to be stowed out of sight. The display interface can have a latch so as to be selectively removable from the remainder of the mount. The mount can include an arm assembly which may be articulated to enable free positioning of the television or monitor relative to the wall.

  • Patent number: 11754157
    Abstract: A linear actuator system having an actuator housing, a motor assembly, a screw shaft, a thrust tube, and a nut assembly. The nut assembly is engaged with the screw shaft and directly coupled with the thrust tube. The nut assembly can define a mechanical fitting for direct physical engagement between the thrust tube and the nut assembly, absent additional load bearing components intervening therebetween. The nut assembly is configured to convert rotational motion of the rotor about the longitudinal axis to linear motion of the thrust tube along the longitudinal axis. A cooling loop can be at least partially embedded, potted or seated within the actuator housing, with a thermally conductive material disposed at least partially about the cooling loop to conduct heat from the actuator housing.

  • Publication number: 20230184375
    Abstract: A wall mount includes a wall attachment assembly with spaced apart top and bottom rails. A pair of display mount assemblies hang from the wall attachment assembly and attach to a television or other electronic display such as a computer monitor. The display mount brackets include an engaging assembly, a display mount member, a scissors assembly, and a carrier assembly. The engaging assembly has hooks and a swivel guide engaged with the top rail of the wall attachment assembly, and a latch assembly engaged with the bottom rail of the wall attachment assembly. The swivel guide and a contact portion of the latch assembly enable the display mount assemblies to swivel or pivot about a vertical axis relative to the wall attachment assembly. This enables an attached television or monitor to be laterally swiveled relative to the wall.

  • Patent number: 10626980
    Abstract: An actuator system includes a housing with a screw shaft extending along a longitudinal axis. The stator component of an electric motor is coupled to the housing, with a rotor extending along the longitudinal axis. A thrust tube is engaged with the screw shaft, for example with a nut assembly configured to convert rotational motion of the rotor into linear motion of the thrust tube. A modular cooling assembly is selectively coupled to the exterior surface of the actuator housing, and configured to dissipate heat.
