1. A portable display device assembly comprising:
means for holding a display device, comprising:
a display device support panel,
a display device support rail slidingly engaged with the display device support panel such that the height of the display device support rail may be raised or lowered with respect to the display device support panel, and
means for pivoting the display device support panel; and
means for attaching the means for holding a display device to a separate apparatus;
wherein
the display device support panel comprises a pair of vertically aligned slots;
the display device support rail comprises a pair of threaded studs; and
the display device support rail is slidingly engaged with the display device support panel by inserting each threaded stud of the display device support rail into a mating slot on the display device support panel and securing the support rail at the desired vertical position against the support panel with a nut threaded onto each of the threaded studs of the support rail;
wherein the means for attaching the means for holding a display device to a separate apparatus comprises
a pair of legs, each leg comprising
means for pivotally attaching the leg at a first end to the means for holding a display device, and
means for removably attaching the leg at a second end to a separate apparatus;
wherein the means for pivotally attaching the leg at a first end to the means for holding a display device comprises
a leg fixture comprising
a first wall comprising a horizontal lock lobe, a vertical lock lobe, and a rotation aperture,
a second wall coupled to the first wall, and
a stud protruding away from the leg fixture;
wherein the display device support panel comprises a slot and the stud of the leg fixture is located through the slot of the support panel and urged against the support panel with a nut threaded onto the stud, and
further wherein the leg comprises a rotation aperture and the leg fixture is rotatably mated with the leg with a leg bolt inserted through the rotation aperture of the leg fixture and the rotation aperture of the leg and secured with a nut threaded onto the leg bolt;
further wherein a leg locking pin is selectively inserted through the vertical lock lobe of the leg fixture and a locking aperture on the leg in order to orient the means for holding a display device substantially vertically, or through the horizontal lock lobe of the leg fixture and the locking aperture on the leg in order to orient the means for holding a display device substantially horizontally, as desired;
wherein the means for removably attaching the leg at a second end to a separate apparatus comprises
a modified compression clevis separated from the leg, and comprising a first leg fork and a second leg fork separated by a holding space, the second leg fork comprising a tapped insert, the first leg fork and the second leg fork each further comprising a pivoting aperture;
a pivoting bolt and a pivoting nut;
a bolt;
a threaded pad comprising threads; and
a neoprene pad;
wherein, when the compression clevis is placed on a desired location of a separate apparatus such that the holding space surrounds a surface of the separate apparatus and the bolt is inserted through the tapped insert of the second leg fork and into the threads of the threaded pad, the threaded pad is urged against the surface of the separate apparatus which is in turn urged against the neoprene pad, thus compressing the compression clevis around the surface of the separate apparatus in the desired location, and
further wherein the pivoting bolt is inserted through the pivoting aperture of the first leg fork, an aperture in the leg, and the pivoting aperture of the second leg fork, and secured in place with the pivoting nut.
