Abstract

An improved view angle compensating apparatus for use with a monitor display is disclosed, in which the body of a monitor display is prevented from being disassembled from a monitor stand support when an excessive force is being applied thereto during a compensation period of a view angle. The apparatus includes a monitor rotator integrally assembled to the bottom surface of the body of a monitor for compensating a left or right rotational angle of the protrusion at its rotation portion; and a monitor stand support comprising of a combination of left and right rotational angle compensating rib, respectively extended from both sides of the upper surface of supporting portion thereof, for controlling a turn of a fixed protuberance of the monitor rotator to rotate within a prescribed range of an angle in the left or right direction so that a view angle compensation of the monitor is performed, an elastic tab formed by a cut-opening a portion of the supporting portion so that the right rotational angle compensating rib is enabled to flexibly move upwardly or downwardly, a support tab extended downwardly from an end portion of the elastic tab, for enabling the rotating portion and the supporting portion to be assembled or disassembled, as necessary, by pulling down or pushing up the elastic tab, an engagement tab extended horizontally from the lower portion of the support tab so as to allow a viewer to easily move the support tab: and a plurality of rotation preventing protrusions extended downwardly from the bottom surface of the engagement tab to reach the upper surface of a table on which the monitor stand support is located, for supporting the elastic tab when an excessive force is being applied to the body of a monitor for compensating a view angle of the screen of a monitor.
