Abstract

An adjustable support for a multimedia display device includes a base, a ring rotatably coupled with the base, and a foot mated with the ring and coupled with the base. The ring includes a plurality of ramp surfaces, and the foot includes a plurality of engaging surfaces. The plurality of ramp surfaces are separate from each other and distributed at substantially equal intervals along a common circumference, and each of the engaging surfaces interacts with a respective one of the ramp surfaces, wherein rotation of the ring relative to the base causes each of the engaging surfaces to slide along the respective one of the ramp surfaces to vary a distance the foot extends from the base.
