Sanda number: TW2335PA IX. Description of the invention: • Technical field to which the invention pertains. The present invention relates to a support mechanism and a display using the same, and in particular to a sliding support mechanism and a display using the same. [Prior Art] In the era of increasingly innovative technology, various products are constantly being introduced. In order to meet the needs of office affairs, many products are designed with a support mechanism to support the use of the product on a desktop or a flat surface. In particular, in the case of a display, the user often needs to adjust the viewing angle. Therefore, the supporting mechanism not only needs to support the weight of the display, but also needs to have the function of adjusting the viewing angle. Referring to FIG. 1, a rear view of a conventional display 100 is shown. The display 100 includes at least a housing 10, a support mechanism 30, and a display panel 20. The housing 10 has a pair of a back surface 12 and a front surface 11, and the display panel 20 is disposed on the front surface 11. The support mechanism 30 includes a first support frame 31, a second support frame 32, a base 34 and a pivot 36. One end of the first bracket 31 is connected to the back surface 12 of the casing 10, and one end of the second bracket 32 is fixed to the base 34. The base 34 is in contact with a plane. The first support frame 31 and the second support frame 32 are pivotally connected by a pivot 36. • The pivot frame 36 allows the first support frame 31 to pivot relative to the second support frame 32 with the pivot 36 as a fulcrum. When the first support frame 31 rotates relative to the second support frame 32, the first support frame 31 drives the housing 10 and the display panel 20 to swing, thereby changing the contact of the housing 10 of the display 100 with respect to the base 34.

• : The tilt angle of the TW2335PA plane. The conventional branch building mechanism 30 supports the body 10 and the display panel 20 disposed thereon at a predetermined distance above the plane, and connects the first frame 31 and the second support frame 32 via the pivot 36. Therefore, the conventional pivot 36 and the first arm frame 31, and the pivot plate 36 and the second support frame 32 need to be connected with a metal plate to be strong enough to withstand the housing 10 and the display panel 20 of the display 100. i. Due to the use of sheet metal, the components of the support mechanism and the material cost are increased. Between the housing 10 and the first support frame 31, between the first support frame 31 and the pivot 6, between the pivot 36 and the second support frame 32, and between the second support frame 32 and the base 34 Connected by pinning or riveting. In order to achieve the above, the connection must be accomplished by a number of sturdy screws such as screws, bolts or rivets. The conventional support mechanism has a large number of components and a complicated assembly procedure, so that it takes a lot of material cost and time cost. Moreover, the conventional support mechanism 3G and the display (10) to which the same is applied, the complicated assembly procedure is liable to cause a problem of poor appearance of scratching of the product, resulting in an increase in the defective rate. When the traditional display, 1〇〇i on the desktop, its housing 1 〇 Γ Γ Γ Γ 支 支 支 支 支 支 支 支 支 支 支 支 一段 一段 一段 一段 一段 一段 一段 预设 预设 预设 预设 预设 预设 预设 预设 预设 预设 预设 预设 预设 预设 预设 预设The display displayed on the display panel 20 is conventionally displayed; and 1 is in a state in which its line of sight is close to horizontal. Therefore, it does not conform to the ergonomic natural perspective: when the design is placed on the desktop, the user is exposed for a long time due to extra force. 6 1302081
