Abstract

Examples are disclosed that relate to locking mechanisms, display assemblies, and methods for modifying a mounting assembly of a display assembly to enable rotation of a display. In one example, a locking mechanism comprises a lock block mounted for rotation with the display. The locking mechanism also comprises a lever rotatably coupled to a plate of the mounting assembly. The lever comprises a lock tab that blocks movement of the lock block when the lever is in a locked position and allows movement of the lock block when the lever is in an unlocked position.
