Abstract

A display device comprises a housing adapted to support a display screen. The display device also comprises a kickstand support positionable to support the housing in at least two different viewing modes.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A display device, comprising: 
 a computer display screen housing; and    a kickstand support positionable to support the housing in at least two different viewing modes, the kickstand support comprising a rotator element and a support member extending from a unitary location of the rotator element.    
     
     
         2 . The display device of  claim 1 , wherein the support member is pivotably coupled to the rotator element.  
     
     
         3 . The display device of  claim 1 , wherein the kickstand support is coupled to a side of the housing opposite a computer display screen.  
     
     
         4 . The display device of  claim 1 , wherein the housing comprises a recessed portion adapted to facilitate storage of the kickstand support therein.  
     
     
         5 . The display device of  claim 1 , wherein the kickstand support is adapted to be stored in a flush position relative to at least a portion of the housing.  
     
     
         6 . The display device of  claim 1 , wherein the support member comprises a unileg support member.  
     
     
         7 . The display device of  claim 1 , wherein the kickstand support is positionable to support the housing in at least two different viewing angles.  
     
     
         8 . The display device of  claim 1 , wherein the kickstand support is rotatably coupled to the housing to enable positioning of a computer display screen in at least portrait and landscape viewing modes.  
     
     
         9 . The display device of  claim 1 , wherein the rotator element is rotatably coupled to the housing and the support member is pivotally coupled to the rotator element.  
     
     
         10 . The display device of  claim 1 , wherein the housing is configured to enable flush storage of the kickstand support relative to at least a portion of a side of the housing opposite a computer display screen.  
     
     
         11 . A method for manufacturing a display device, comprising: 
 coupling a kickstand support to a computer display screen housing of the display device, the kickstand support adapted to position the housing in at least two different viewing modes, the kickstand support comprising a rotator element and support member extending from a unitary location of the rotator element.    
     
     
         12 . The method of  claim 11 , wherein coupling the kickstand support comprises rotatably coupling the kickstand support to the housing.  
     
     
         13 . The method of  claim 11 , further comprising providing the kickstand support having the support member pivotally coupled to the rotator element.  
     
     
         14 . The method of  claim 11 , further comprising providing the kickstand support having a unileg support member pivotally coupled to the rotator element.  
     
     
         15 . The method of  claim 11 , further comprising providing the housing having a recessed portion adapted to facilitate storage of the kickstand support therein.  
     
     
         16 . The method of  claim 11 , further comprising providing the housing configured to enable flush storage of the kickstand support relative to at least a portion of a side of the housing opposite a computer display screen.  
     
     
         17 . The method of  claim 11 , further comprising providing the kickstand support configured to enable positioning of a computer display screen in at least portrait and landscape viewing modes.  
     
     
         18 . The method of  claim 11 , further comprising providing the kickstand support configured to enable positioning of a computer display screen in at least two different viewing angles.  
     
     
         19 . (canceled)  
     
     
         20 . (canceled)  
     
     
         21 . An electronic display device, comprising: 
 a housing disposed about a display screen; and    a kickstand support positionable to support the display screen in at least two different viewing modes, the kickstand support comprising a rotator element and a support member pivotally coupled to the rotator element.    
     
     
         22 . The device of  claim 21 , wherein the electronic display device is usable with at least one peripheral device.  
     
     
         23 . The device of  claim 21 , wherein the display screen is configured to receive user input.  
     
     
         24 . The device of  claim 21 , wherein the electronic display device comprises a tablet portable computer.
