Abstract

An articulated support for a display including a base having a fore-to-aft slide assembly located proximate a rear portion of the base, a primary support for supporting the display, and having a pivot glide assembly depending from a rear portion of the primary support received within the fore-to-aft slide assembly for simultaneous translation and rotation therein, and a linkage assembly pivotally interconnecting the primary support to a forward portion of the base such that when the forward portion of the primary support is moved vertically, the primary support is simultaneously rotated and translated at a predetermined, synchronous rate with respect to the vertical translation of the forward portion of the primary support to automatically adjust the display as the user's viewing position changes vertically.
