A vertically adjustable bracket for supporting equipment, such as video display devices, includes a mechanism for orienting the devices at a desired angle and inclination. The mechanism includes a support plate having a spherical bearing surface which is received in a circular aperture in a bracket arm. The mounting plate is held in place by a threaded shaft which is secured to a slot formed in the spherical bearing surface by a nut. Rotation of the threaded shaft by a knob causes a linkage to incline the mounting plate to a desired inclination.

A wall bracket system for vertically adjustably mounting a device on a vertical surface, said system comprising: a channel defining a generally linear path and having means for securing to the vertical surface; a bracket arm having means at one end for slidably engaging the channel so that said arm is capable of translating along the path, and further having a socket spaced inward from said one end; a mounting plate having a generally spherical bearing surface including a radial slot, said bearing surface being received within the socket of the bracket arm so that said mounting plate is simultaneously capable of rotating about an axis which is generally parallel to the vertical path and tilting relative to said axis; and means for retaining the mounting plate within the socket and for tilting the mounting plate relative to the vertical axis, said means for retaining including a threaded shaft rotatably secured to the bracket arm and projecting through the radial slot; means for rotating the shaft; a block having a threaded passage and mounted on the threaded shaft so that it translates along said shaft as said shaft is rotated; and means for operatively coupling the mounting plate to the block so that the mounting plate tilts within the socket as the shaft is rotated.
