The tilt manipulation unit is provided between the support plate and the tilt plate, and is coupled to each of the upper supports and joint thereof, and tilts up/down an upper end of the tilt plate about the support plate.
- The tilt manipulation unit may include a motor, a gear box, a retractable unit, and a rotary shaft. The motor is provided in front of the support plate, and has a rod rotating forward and backward. The gear box is provided at an end of the rod of the motor, and converts an axial rotation force of the rod into a vertical rotation force. The retractable unit connects at one end with the gear box, and retracts up/down at the other end as the rod rotates forward and backward. The rotary shaft connects with an upper end of the retractable unit, and rotates forward or backward as supported at both ends by the support plate, and has a connection link provided on its circumferential surface and connecting with the tilt plate. The connection link pushes and pulls the tilt plate as tilting up/down by a hinge.
- The retractable unit may include a male screw part, and a female screw part. The male screw part connects with the gear box, and rotates at its place. The female screw part covers and screws with the male screw part, and moves up/down as the male screw part rotates forward/backward.

- Exemplary embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the annexed drawings. In the following description, a detailed description of known functions and configurations incorporated herein has been omitted for conciseness.
- As shown in
FIGS. 1 to 7 , an automatic wall mounting system for a wall-mounted television (TV) according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention includes asupport plate 10 mounted on awall body 2; atilt plate 20 mounting theTV 4 in its front; and atilt manipulation unit 30 coupled with each of thesupport plate 10 and thetilt plate 20, and tilting up/down an upper end of thetilt plate 20 about thesupport plate 10. - The
support plate 10 is of a board shape in which it is mounted on thewall body 2, and has a plurality of upper andlower supports support plate 10 can be separately fixed to thewall body 2 using coupling holes (not shown) provided at both ends that are bent and step-shaped. Alternately, thesupport plate 10 can be coupled to a separate elevating unit (not shown) previously fixed and installed at thewall body 2 to elevate or descend. - The upper supports 12 of the
support plate 10 face with each other at their both front and upper sides. Theupper supports 12 each have through-holes 12 a for rotatably inserting both ends of arotary shaft 34 of thetilt manipulation unit 30, respectively. - The
lower supports 14 of thesupport plate 10 are disposed in parallel on the same horizontal line. Thelower supports 14 have through-holes 14 a obtained by up/down penetration, and rotatably insertjoint protrusions 24 a of bothlower joints 24 of thetilt plate 20. - The
tilt plate 20 is of a board shape in which it has a plurality of upper andlower joints lower supports support plate 10, and installs theTV 4 in its front. - The
upper joint 22 is a ball joint with aguide socket 22 a. Theguide socket 22 a covers and turns around a ball, and connects with aconnection link 34 a of thetilt manipulation unit 30. - The
lower joint 24 is a ball joint with thejoint protrusion 24 a. Thejoint protrusion 24 a is provided and supported at one side on a circumferential surface of the ball, passing through the through-hole 14 a of thelower support 14 of thesupport plate 10. - The
tilt manipulation unit 30 includes amotor 31 provided in front of thesupport plate 10, and having arod 31 a rotating forward and backward; agear box 32 provided at an end of therod 31 a of themotor 31, and converting an axial rotation force of therod 31 a into a vertical rotation force; aretractable unit 33 connecting at one end with thegear box 32, and retracting up/down at the other end as therod 31 a rotates forward or backward; and therotary shaft 34 connecting with an upper end of theretractable unit 33, and rotating forward or backward as supported at its both ends by thesupport plate 10, and having theconnection link 34 a on its circumferential surface. The connection link 34 a connects with thetilt plate 20, and pushes and pulls thetilt plate 20 as tilting up/down by a hinge. - The
retractable unit 33 includes amale screw part 33 a connecting with therod 31 a via thegear box 32, and rotating at its place; and afemale screw part 33 b covering and screwing with themale screw part 33 a, and moving up/down as themale screw part 33 a rotates forward/backward. - The
gear box 32 connects therod 31 a with themale screw part 33 a by a worm gear manner. In other words, worm gears connect to ends of therod 31 a and themale screw part 33 a interconnecting with each other, respectively. The worm gears are geared with each other, and transmit the rotation force of therod 31 a to themale screw parts 33 a disposed in a vertical direction. - In addition to the worm gear, the
gear box 32 can apply a combination of various gears such as a rack pinion gear or a bevel gear for converting the rotation force into the vertical rotation force. - The
rotary shaft 34 having a rod shape is rotatably inserted at its both ends and supported in the through-holes 12 a of the bothupper supports 12 of thesupport plate 10. Therotary shaft 34 has theconnection link 34 a at its center part. Theconnection link 34 a is coupled at its both ends to therotary shaft 34 and theguide socket 22 a of theupper joint 22 of thetilt plate 20. The connection link 34 a is connected by a hinge at its center part and thus, has a “V”-shape. The connection link 34 a pulls and pushes thetilt plate 20 as folded and unfolded when therotary shaft 34 rotates forward and backward. - A
hinge fragment 35 is provided between an upper end of thefemale screw part 33 b of theretractable unit 33 and therotary shaft 34. Thehinge fragment 35 is integrally connected with therotary shaft 34, and is hinged and connected with thefemale screw part 33 b. - The automatic wall mounting system for a wall-mounted TV according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention is completely assembled as follows. First, the
support plate 10 is fixingly mounted on thewall body 2. After that, thetilt manipulation unit 30 is disposed in front of thesupport plate 10 such that therotary shaft 34 is rotatably inserted and supported by theupper support 12 of thesupport plate 10. Next, thetilt plate 20 covers a front surface of thetilt manipulation unit 30. Thus, theguide socket 22 a of the upper joint 22 of thetilt plate 20 connects with theconnection link 34 a of thetilt manipulation part 30. At the same time, thejoint protrusion 24 a of the lower joint 24 is inserted into and supported in the through-hole 14 a of thelower support 14 of thesupport plate 10. - In this state, a viewer can control an up/down tilt angle of the screen of the
TV 4 at his/her eye level in a remote place, using a remote controller. - For example, when it is intended to tilt down the screen of the
TV 4, themotor 31 is driven to rotate therod 31 a in a desired direction. The rotation force of therod 31 a serves to push upward thefemale screw part 33 b of theretractable unit 33 disposed in the vertical direction through thegear box 32. Therotary shaft 34 is rotated in engagement connecting with thefemale screw part 33 b by thehinge fragment 35. Thus, theconnection link 34 a extends to the front. Because thetilt plate 20 is hinged and fixed at its lower end, theconnection link 34 extends in a “V”-shape while pushing an upper end of thetilt plate 20 to the front, thereby tilting down the screen of the TV by the hinge. - As described above, the automatic wall mounting system for a wall-mounted TV according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention has an effect of automatically tilting up/down the screen of the TV at a viewer's eye level in a remote place, thereby providing an optimal screen position to the viewer in real time while promptly, simply, and conveniently tilting up/down the screen by automation.
- While the invention has been shown and described with reference to a certain preferred embodiment thereof, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes in form and details may be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims.
