A wall mount to mount a display apparatus proximate a wall is disclosed. The wall mount may include a base to be attached to the wall; a supporting bracket supported by the base; a rotating bracket tiltably coupled with the supporting bracket, and on which the display apparatus is mounted; an elastic member coupled with the supporting bracket; and a supporting wire connected to the electric member and the rotating member. The elastic member may expand or contract relative to a movement of the rotating bracket. Thus the present invention provides simplifies the assembly and enhances the usability of the wall mount as well as provides an easily adjustable tilt angle of the wall mount.

What is claimed is: 1. A wall mount configured to mount a display apparatus proximate a wall, the wall mount comprising: a base to be coupled with the wall; a supporting bracket configured to supportably engage the base and to be coupled with the wall; a rotating bracket tiltably coupled to the supporting bracket, and whereby the display apparatus is coupled to the rotating bracket; an elastic member, comprising: a shaft coupled with the supporting bracket, a roller rotatably coupled with the shaft, and a spring wound around the roller; and a supporting wire coupled at one end to the spring of the elastic member and couple at another end to the rotating bracket, wherein the elastic member expands or contracts relative to a movement of the rotating bracket to tilt the display apparatus to a desired viewing angle. 2. The wall mount of claim 1, wherein the spring comprises a leaf spring. 3. The wall mount of claim 1, further comprising a friction member coupled with the supporting bracket and coupled with the rotating bracket to supply a frictional force to the rotating bracket and to maintain the rotating bracket at a desired viewing angle. 4. The wall mount of claim 1, further comprising a wire supporter coupled with the supporting bracket, and rotatably supporting the supporting wire. 5. The wall mount of claim 4, wherein, the wire supporter comprises a circumferential groove to accomodate the supporting wire. 6. An apparatus, comprising: a supporting bracket having a length greater than its width, wherein the supporting bracket comprises a first top surface substantially orthogonally coupled with a first sidewall and a second sidewall to define a first channel, and further comprises a flange substantially orthogonally coupled with at least the first sidewall or the second sidewall, wherein the first top surface includes a wire slot formed therein; a rotating bracket having a length greater than its width and rotatably coupled with the supporting bracket, wherein the rotating bracket comprises a second top surface substantially orthogonally coupled with a third sidewall and a fourth sidewall to define a second channel, and further comprises a wire coupling part formed within the second channel, wherein the second channel has greater width than that of the first channel; an elastic member to counterbalance movement of the rotating bracket away from the supporting bracket and to assist movement of the rotating bracket toward the supporting bracket, wherein the elastic member is positioned within the first channel; a wire supporter positioned within the first channel away from the elastic member and proximate the wire slot; and a supporting wire having a first end coupled with the wire coupling part and a second end coupled with the elastic member, wherein a portion of the supporting wire passes through the wire slot and about a portion of the wire supporter. 7. The apparatus of claim 6, further comprising: a base bracket to supportably engage the supporting bracket, wherein the base bracket comprises a third top surface disposed above a first longitudinal flange and a second longitudinal flange, each of which substantially parallels a longitudinal axis of the base bracket. 8. The apparatus of claim 7, wherein the first longitudinal flange further comprises a first raised lip extending along at least a portion of a length thereof, and wherein the first raised lip is configured to supportably engage a bottom portion of the supporting bracket flange. 9. The apparatus of claim 7, further comprising a flat panel display apparatus coupled with the rotating bracket. 10. The apparatus of claim 9, wherein the supporting bracket flange includes a fastener configured to couple the flange with a support surface. 11. The apparatus of claim 9, wherein the base bracket includes a fastener configured to couple the base bracket with a support surface. 12. The apparatus of claim 6 wherein the wire supporter comprises a circumferential groove formed in an outer surface thereof and the supporting wire fits within a portion of the circumferential groove. 13. The apparatus of claim 6, wherein a base end of the rotating bracket is movably coupled to a base end of the supporting bracket. 14. The apparatus of claim 6, wherein the supporting bracket first top surface, the first sidewall, and the second sidewall fit within the second channel formed by the rotating bracket when the rotating bracket is in a first closed position. 15. The apparatus of claim 14, wherein the wire coupling part projects through the wire slot when the rotating bracket is in the first closed position. 16. The apparatus of claim 6, wherein the rotating bracket is movable between a first position adjacent the supporting bracket to a second position away from the supporting bracket. 17. The apparatus of claim 6, wherein the elastic member comprises a shaft coupled with the supporting bracket, a roller rotatably coupled with the shaft, and a spring wound around the roller and coupled with the supporting wire. 18. An apparatus of claim 6, further comprising a friction member having a first end movably coupled with the supporting bracket and a second end movably coupled with the rotating bracket.
