Abstract

Systems and methods for mounting flat panel video displays are disclosed herein. Several aspects of the invention are directed to a mounting assembly for adjustably mounting a flat panel video display. The mounting assembly can be carried by a mounting device attached to a support medium (e.g., a wall or other support structure). The mounting assembly includes a first body portion and a second body portion. The mounting assembly also includes a first link and a second link spaced apart from the first link to operably couple the first body portion to the second body portion. The first and second links are positioned to cooperatively move relative to each other to pivotably move the first body portion relative to the second body portion. The mounting assembly also includes a slot in the first and/or second body portions and a locking mechanism received within the slot to releasably hold the first and second body portions in position relative to each other.
