Mounting LCD display to provide swivel and tilt

[erasmu]

I have an application where I need to mount a graphics LCD module (approx 5" x 6" x 1&quot. I would like it to be able to swivel/rotate 90 degrees left and 90 degrees right. I also would like to allow it to be tilted at least 60 degrees. What is the best approach to accomplish this?

They developed a rather advanced approach to the problem of mounting computer parts (including LCDs) in vehicles. They do it on the modular basis. Very interesting design.

Those are helpful links that do show swivel/tilt mounting of devices. I am likely to have upcoming applications that could benefit from them. In this instance though, I am looking for something small that can attach a small LCD module to a product console. Something along the lines of how the displays on camcorders attach would be good. These can swivel and tilt, yet provide for the electrical connections to the display. I was not able to find anything like that on these sites.

That may work. It is not quite what I envisioned, but the size and function look promising. I will contact the company for more information. Thanks for the help.
