Abstract
Desktop flat panel display support system includes a base, a pivot support bracket assembly, and a support arm, with gas spring, leads to a single axis pivot where a flat panel display may be connected. The pivot support bracket assembly rotates about a vertical axis to provide azimuthil rotation of the support arm. The pivoting bracket assembly includes a frictional assembly and a brake assembly. The frictional assembly includes at least two planar metal surfaces and an easy breakaway frictional polymer disk between the metal surfaces. A nut, bolt and spring washer provide tension to the assembly.
