Wall mount structure for image display screens

Abstract

A wall mount structure for a “flat” image display screen and includes preferably two from each other spaced supporting profiles attachable against a vertical supporting surface. At the rear side of the display screen, and into existing threaded mounting holes, are interconnecting structures for the profiles attached, which on connection only facilitate movement in the longitudinal direction of the profiles. The profiles advantageously include recesses which facilitate that in direction of insertion leading interconnecting structures can take up connection with the profiles at a point adjacent to the final and mounted position. The profiles are preferably arranged with a stop at the end portion serving as final end portion during an insertion operation of the interconnecting structures, and preferably also attachable stop and/or lock elements at opposed end portions, to be attached when the display screen has been mounted on the wall surface. Supporting profiles can be mounted extending horizontally or vertically.

1 . A wall mount structure for an image display screen, said wall mount structure comprising
 at least one wall surface attachable supporting profile with a longitudinally extending outwardly open through groove, at a rear side of the display screen existing mounting holes being used for attachment of interconnecting means by a screw having a head and a thread, said interconnecting means, during a sliding movement in a longitudinal direction of said at least one supporting profile, being arranged to take up an interconnected condition with said at least one supporting profile,   said interconnecting means including a first cylindrical part having a diameter exceeding a width of said through groove,   said first cylindrical part having a through hole, said screw passing through said through hole with said thread of said screw attachable at mounting holes at the rear side of the display screen and said head of said screw being seated in said first cylindrical part.   
   
   
       2 . The wall mount structure according to  claim 1 , wherein a first stop means is arranged at an end portion of the supporting profile whereagainst the interconnecting means to be connected to the profile is slid during a mounting operation. 
   
   
       3 . The wall mount structure according to  claim 2 , wherein a second stop means is arranged attachable at the end portion of the supporting profile which is opposed to a location of the first stop means. 
   
   
       4 . The wall mount structure according to  claim 3 , wherein the second stop means is of a lockable type. 
   
   
       5 . The wall mount structure according to  claim 1 , wherein two of the supporting profiles are arranged extending substantially horizontal at the wall surface in a spaced relationship to each other corresponding to a height relationship for existing mounting holes at the rear side of the display screen. 
   
   
       6 . The wall mount structure according to  claim 1 , wherein two of the supporting profiles are arranged extending substantially vertical at the wall surface in a spaced relationship to each other corresponding to a sideways relationship for existing mounting holes at the rear side of the display screen. 
   
   
       7 . The wall mount structure according to  claim 5 , wherein the supporting profiles are arranged having a recess facilitating that in an insertion direction for the interconnecting means leading interconnecting means receive engagement with the supporting profiles at a position more adjacent to stop means than opposed end portions of the profiles. 
   
   
       8 . The wall mount structure according to  claim 1 , wherein the profiles have a substantially U-shaped configuration with free end portions bent over in a direction towards each other, thereby defining an outwardly open groove between the free end portions.
