A television mount assembly suitable for mounting a television to a wall, especially over fireplaces and other obstacles. The mount assembly secures a television (TV) to a wall via two arms and a spring mechanism thereby allowing it to extend away from the wall while at the same time allowing the television to swivel. It includes a mechanism to straighten the television as it is positioned close to the wall. The spring mechanism is calibrated by means of a calibration screw, spring block, and locking screws. A handle enables a user to grasp the mount assembly for changing the position of the television. A temperature gauge on the handle displays ambient temperature proximate to the television to warn users if the temperature is too high for the television to safely operate. A means of setting a maximum extension prevents the television from extending beyond a point set by the user.

1. A device comprising: a wall mounting portion, an extending portion, and a television mounting portion,where the wall mounting portion is attached to the extending portion, where the extending portion is rotatably attached to the television mounting portion,where the extending portion positions the television mounting portion down and away from the wall mounting portion, referred to as the extended configuration, and where the extending portion positions the television mounting portion up and towards the wall mounting portion, referred to as the retracted configuration,where the extending portion comprises an upper arm, a lower arm, two gas springs, a spring block, a calibration screw, an adjustment screw, and an adjustment collar, where the upper arm comprises a plurality of wheels, where the wheels of the upper arm engage the television mounting portion in the retracted configuration, where the spring block moves vertically when the calibration screw is rotated, where the two gas springs are connected to the spring block, where the adjustment screw directly engages and comes in contact with the lower arm in the extended configuration, andwhere the television mounting portion comprises a handle, where the handle comprises a temperature gauge. 2. The device of claim 1, wherein the extending portion further comprises a locking nut, where the locking nut resists the rotation of the adjustment screw. 3. A device comprising: a wall mounting portion, an extending portion, and a television mounting portion,where the wall mounting portion is attached to the extending portion, where the extending portion is attached to the television mounting portion,where the extending portion comprises an upper arm, a lower arm, a spring mechanism, a means of varying the force applied by the spring mechanism, and a means for setting a maximum extension, where the upper arm comprises a longitudinal axis and a plurality of protrusions, where the plurality of protrusions project away from the longitudinal axis, where the upper arm and the lower are each secured to the wall mounting portion and the television mounting portion, where the longitudinal axis of the upper arm extends between where the upper arm is secured to the wall mounting portion and where the upper arm is secured to the television mounting portion, andwhere the extending portion positions the television mounting portion down and away from the wall mounting portion, referred to as the extended configuration, and where the extending portion positions the television mounting portion up and towards the wall mounting portion, referred to as the retracted configuration, wherein the plurality of protrusions of the upper arm force the television mounting portion in the retracted configuration to rotate the television mounting portion left or right about a vertical or semi-vertical axis and straighten out the television mounting portion. 4. The device of claim 3, wherein the spring mechanism further comprises two gas springs. 5. The device of claim 3, wherein the means of varying the force applied by the spring mechanism comprises a spring block and a calibration screw, where the spring block moves vertically when the calibration screw is rotated, where the spring mechanism is connected to the spring block. 6. The device of claim 3, wherein the extending portion is rotatably attached to the television mounting portion. 7. The device of claim 3, wherein the means for setting a maximum extension comprises an adjustment collar and an adjustment screw, where the adjustment screw directly engages and comes in contact with the lower arm when in the extended configuration. 8. The device of claim 7, wherein the means for setting a maximum extension further comprises a locking nut. 9. The device of claim 7, further comprising a holding bolt, wherein the holding bolt prevents the extending portion from extending when the device is in a retracted configuration, and wherein the holding bolt prevents the extending portion from retracting when in the extended configuration, where the holding bolt is secured to the wall mounting portion. 10. The device of claim 3, where the television mounting portion comprises a handle, where the handle comprises a temperature gauge. 11. The device of claim 10, wherein the temperature gauge is a color changing temperature gauge. 12. The device of claim 3, wherein the television mounting portion further comprises a handle, a right television mount, a left television mount, and a bottom television mount, where the bottom television mount is secured to the right television mount and the left television mount, where the handle is secured to the bottom television mount. 13. The device of claim 3, wherein the wall mounting portion further comprises a holding bolt and a wing nut. 14. The device of claim 13, wherein the holding bolt prevents the extending portion from extending when the device is in a retracted configuration, and wherein the holding bolt prevents the extending portion from retracting when in the extended configuration. 15. The device of claim 3, wherein each of the protrusions of the upper arm is capable of engaging the television mounting portion. 16. A device comprising: a wall mounting portion,an extending portion, and a television mounting portion, where the extending portion is attached to the television mounting portion,where the extending portion comprises an upper arm, a lower arm, and a spring mechanism, where the upper arm comprises a longitudinal axis and a plurality of protrusions, where the plurality of protrusions project away from the longitudinal axis, andwhere the extending portion has an extended configuration in which the television mounting portion is positioned down and away from the wall mounting portion and a retracted configuration in which the television mounting portion is positioned up and towards the wall mounting portion, wherein the extending portion is rotatably attached to the television mounting portion, and wherein the protrusions of the upper arm force the television mounting portion in the retracted configuration to rotate the television mounting portion about a vertical or semi-vertical axis. 17. The device of claim 16, wherein the protrusions are wheels. 18. The device of claim 16, wherein the spring mechanism further comprises two gas springs. 19. The device of claim 16, wherein the extending portion further comprises a spring block and a position screw shaft, where the spring block moves vertically when the position screw shaft is rotated, where the spring mechanism is connected to the spring block. 20. The device of claim 16, wherein the extending portion further comprises an adjustment collar and an adjustment screw. 21. The device of claim 20, wherein the adjustment screw directly engages and comes in contact with the lower arm in the extended configuration.
