Abstract
Disclosed herein is an adjustable stand for supporting objects on the adjustable stand, in accordance with some embodiments. Accordingly, the adjustable stand comprises a bottom plate, a middle plate, a top plate, a toggle mechanism, and an actuating device. The toggle mechanism allows pivoting of the top plate in an unlocked state and restricts the pivoting in the locked state. The actuating device transitions the toggle mechanism to the unlocked state by receiving a first actuating input and transitions the toggle mechanism to the locked state by receiving a second actuating input. The toggle mechanism transitions to the unlocked state from the locked state based on applying a pivoting force on the top plate above a threshold pivoting force without receiving the first actuating input. The toggle mechanism transitions to the locked state from the unlocked state based on releasing the pivoting force applied to the top plate.
