Abstract

A display device for the interior of a vehicle includes a display unit designed for optically displaying information, and a movement device swivel unit designed to swivel the display unit about a swivel axis, in particular controllably, between a non-use position parallel to a roof liner of the vehicle and a use position, in particular swivelled away from the roof liner of the vehicle, and to retain the display unit, in particular controllably, in the non-use position and/or in the use position. The swivel unit has two pairs of coupled-together first and second levers, wherein, for a swivelling of the levers of a pair in relation to one another and about the first ends thereof, the first ends thereof are connected to one another such that they can swivel about respective swivel axes, and are attached directly or indirectly to the display unit. The second ends can be attached directly or indirectly to the roof liner of the vehicle.
