According to one embodiment, a display device includes a display module and a stand having a tilt mechanism which adjusts an upright angle of the display module. The tilt mechanism includes a fixed portion provided on the stand, a movable portion provided on the display module, a hinge shaft which pivotably couples the fixed portion and the movable portion together, and a lock member which limits pivoting of the movable portion with respect to the fixed portion. The lock member is movable between a lock position where the lock member engages with the movable portion so as to prevent the display module from falling down through at least a predetermined angle and a release position where the lock member leaves the movable portion so as to allow the display module to pivot freely.

What is claimed is: 1. A display device comprising: a display module having a display screen; and a stand including a tilt mechanism, the tilt mechanism coupling the stand to the display module such that the display module can pivot, to adjust an upright angle of the display screen; wherein: the tilt mechanism includes: a fixed portion provided on the stand and having side plates opposing each other; a movable portion provided on the display module and having a pair of leg portions opposing each other with the fixed portion interposed therebetween; hinge shafts which couple the side plates of the fixed portion to the leg portions of the movable portion such that the movable portion can pivot; a lock member which limits pivoting of the movable portion with respect to the fixed portion, the lock member having a length which permits the lock member to extend between the side plates of the fixed portion, the lock member being provided on the fixed portion such that the lock member can slide between a lock position and a release position; a lever provided behind the stand, the lever being manually driven to slide the lock member to the lock position or the release position; and holding means for holding the lock member in the lock position and the release position, the lock member includes a first engaging portion located at one end in a longitudinal direction of the lock member, a second engaging portion located at another end in the longitudinal direction of the lock member, and a recess portion located adjacent to the second engaging portion, in the lock position, the first and second engaging portions protrude laterally with respect to the side plates to cross pivoting tracks drawn by tips of the leg portions of the movable portion, and the first and second engaging portions are engaged with the leg portions of the movable portion such that the display module does not tilt through a predetermined angle or more; in the release position, the first engaging portion is displaced from the pivoting track drawn by the tip of one of the leg portions, and the recess portion is positioned on the pivoting track drawn by the tip of the other leg portion to permit passing of the other leg portion, thereby permitting free pivoting of the display module; and the display module can pivot within a predetermined angular range to adjust the upright angle of the display screen when the lock member is slid to the lock position. 2. A display device stand comprising: a fixed portion fixed to a base placed on an installation surface, the fixed portion has side plates opposing each other; a movable portion fixed to a display module and including a pair of leg portions opposing each other with the fixed portion interposed therebetween; hinge shafts coupling the side plates of the fixed portion and the leg portions of the movable portion such that the movable portion can pivot; a lock member which limits pivoting of the movable portion with respect to the fixed portion, the lock member having a length which permits the lock member to extend between the side plates of the fixed portion, the lock member being provided on the fixed portion such that the lock member can slide between a lock position and a release position; a lever provided behind the stand, the lever being manually driven to slide the lock member to the lock position or the release position; and holding means for holding the lock member in the lock position and the release position, wherein: the lock member includes a first engaging portion located at one end in a longitudinal direction of the lock member, a second engaging portion located at another end in the longitudinal direction of the lock member, and a recess portion located adjacent to the second engaging portion; in the lock position, the first and second engaging portions protrude laterally with respect to the side plates to cross pivoting tracks drawn by tips of the leg portions of the movable portion, and the first and second engaging portions are engaged with the leg portions of the movable portion such that the display module does not tilt through a predetermined angle or more; in the release position, the first engaging portion is displaced from the pivoting track drawn by the tip of one of the leg portions, and the recess portion is positioned on the pivoting track drawn by the tip of the other leg portion to permit passing of the other leg portion, thereby permitting free pivoting of the display module; and the display module can pivot within a predetermined angular range to adjust the upright angle of the display screen when the lock member is slid to the lock position.
