Abstract

A display screen assembly comprises a glass plate having first and second sides and first and second flexible gaskets. The first gasket is adapted to be disposed along an outer periphery of the first side of the glass plate. The second gasket is adapted to be disposed along an outer periphery of the second side of the glass plate. First and second support elements are provided. Each of the support elements has at least a portion thereof adapted to abut against the first and second gaskets respectively. A rigid block of adjustable thickness is adapted to be positioned between the first and second support elements. A clamping means clamps the first and second support elements together so as to compress the rigid block therebetween and to compress the gaskets against the glass plate. The block of adjustable thickness is operable to determine the extent to which the gaskets are compressed.
