Methods for installing and using television mounting systems
A mounting system capable of mounting objects to support structures. The mounting system includes a wall mount including a display bracket configured to hold the object, a fixed support bracket coupleable to a vertical support structure, and a linkage assembly. The linkage assembly has a low-profile stowed configuration in which the object is held in a raised position close to the support structure. The linkage assembly moves to another configuration to move the object. The object can be held in a lowered position. A biasing mechanism can facilitate convenient movement of the object.

A device for wall mounting television or another display includes a wall mounting portion, a display mounting portion, and an extending/contracting portion. The extending/contracting portion includes a lower arm, an upper arm, a front bracket, a wall mounting bracket, one or more gas springs, and a linear actuator. The one or more gas springs and the linear actuator are arranged selectively to retract and extend the display mounting portion. The lower arm includes protrusions for automatically straightening a display attached to the display mounting portion. The display mounting portion and the extending/contracting portion together include a mechanism for automatically adjusting azimuth of the display mounting portion to a pre-set position when the display mounting portion is lowered into a viewing position. The mechanism for automatically adjusting azimuth may include a set screw and a biasing spring.

A TV wall mounting device includes a wall mount box with vertical supports, a display mount receiving a TV, and an extending/contracting portion between the box and the display mount. The extending/contracting portion has lower and upper arms rotatably attached to the wall mount with rear axles, a pair of linear actuators rotatably attached to the wall mount, a front portion that rises and lowers with action of the actuators, and a horizontally-swiveling portion that is raised and lowered with the front portion and is capable of rotating right-left with respect to the front portion. The display mount is attached to the horizontally-swiveling portion. Parallel operation of the linear actuators, wherein each actuator extends and retracts while keeping the same length as the other actuator, causes the display mount to go up and down. Differential operation of the actuators causes the display mount to rotate right and left.
