Abstract
A retaining device includes bearing units () that float-mount a flat screen () and that are preferably each provided with at least one elastic-positioning element () and a vibration damping element (). The elastic-positioning element preferably includes a cylinder-shaped hard rubber spacer element (). The vibration-damping element () preferably includes a damper with an annular plate-shaped housing and a gel filling (). Vibrations and shocks are introduced substantially centrally into the vibration-damping element via a tappet (). The retaining device is advantageously used in an electronic display device to float-mount a flat screen, configured e.g. as an LCD display unit, in combination with a touch screen as a contact-sensitive unit.
