Abstract
The invention is an enhancement to video display screens which enables enhanced adjustment to the position of the video display screen. The invention enables a user to easily raise the video display screen a variable number of inches vertically above, for example, the keyboard of a computer, or a desk top, or to move the display closer to or farther away from the viewer. The display adjustment mechanism is enclosed in a compartment behind the display screen and a portion slides out of the compartment as the user lifts the display upward from its lowest position. A pressure release button releases meshed teeth between a lock bar and a stabilizer bar. When engaged, the teeth hold the display in a desired vertical position. The display can also be rotated about 180 degrees in either direction relative to the keyboard, desk top or other device. The display may also be tilted forward or back to position the screen in a desired position.
