Abstract
There is disclosed a mounting means for a terminal comprising, in essence, a double parallelogram including a lower arm pivoted to the base, an upper arm connected to a monitor and elbow means interconnecting the other ends of the arms whereby the connection between the upper arm and the monitor moves vertically relative to the connection between the lower arm and the base. The mounting means includes friction means to hold the same in a set position vertically and may also include spring means for counterbalancing the monitor, a turntable on the base to provide for swinging the monitor about a vertical axis and a frictioned hinge providing for tilting the monitor about a horizontal axis.
