  • Publication number: 20240149932
    Abstract: A rugged indoor/outdoor television cart has four large castors supported on four legs that extend upward from the castors and radially inward toward a base. Two vertical uprights are connected to the base. A bracket mounting system connects a television to the vertical uprights and enables an angle of television screen to be adjusted relative to the vertical uprights. Television mounting and stabilizing bars are provided that are connected to the bracket mounting system and have top and bottom claws to engage top and bottom edges of the television. The television mounting and stabilizing bars reduce the amount of stress from being transferred to the VESA mounting connection points on the interior of the television as the television cart is moved over uneven surfaces. A battery power system is optionally provided to provide power to the television when the television cart is not connected to an external source of power.
