A stand includes a lower member, an upper member spaced apart from the lower member, a pillar member that supports the lower and the upper members, and at least one subsidiary member selectively mountable to the upper member and/or the pillar member.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A stand comprising:

       2 . The stand as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the at least one subsidiary member comprises a plurality of subsidiary members, each of which has a different size. 
   
   
       3 . The stand as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the pillar member comprises:
 at least a pair of front pillars disposed to be movable left and right at front surfaces of the lower and the upper members; and   a rear pillar assembly that supports rear surfaces of the lower and the upper members.   
   
   
       4 . The stand as claimed in  claim 3 ,
 wherein the at least a pair of front pillars are movable by a moving unit,   wherein the moving unit comprises:   an upper supporting member that supports the upper member;   upper moving members movable with respect to the upper supporting member, each of said upper moving members having one side fixed to one of the at least a pair of front pillars, respectively;   a lower supporting member to support the lower member; and   lower moving members movable with respect to the lower supporting member, each of said moving members having one side fixed to one of the at least a pair of front pillars, respectively.   
   
   
       5 . The stand as claimed in  claim 4 , wherein a friction member is interposed between the upper supporting member and the upper member. 
   
   
       6 . The stand as claimed in  claim 4 , wherein a friction member is interposed between the lower supporting member and the lower member. 
   
   
       7 . The stand as claimed in  claim 4 ,
 wherein each end of the upper and the lower supporting members includes at least one fixing hole or at least one fixing slit, and each of the upper and the lower moving members includes at least one fixing hole or at least one fixing slit,   the at least one fixing holes or the at least one fixing slits of the upper and lower supporting members being formed adjacent to and facing the at least one fixing holes or the at least one fixing slits of the upper and lower moving members,   the upper and the lower supporting members including the at least one fixing hole when the upper and the lower moving members include the at least one fixing slit, and the upper and the lower supporting members including the at least one fixing slit when the upper and the lower moving members include the at least one fixing hole,   wherein each of the upper and the lower moving members is individually moved with respect to a corresponding one of the upper and the lower supporting members, and then fixed at the moved position by a fixing member.   
   
   
       8 . The stand as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein the rear pillar assembly comprises a pair of rear pillars spaced apart from each other. 
   
   
       9 . The stand as claimed in  claim 8 , wherein the rear pillar assembly further comprises a rear bracket fixed across the pair of rear pillars. 
   
   
       10 . The stand as claimed in  claim 9 , wherein the rear bracket comprises at least one cable band and a cable receiving part. 
   
   
       11 . The stand as claimed in  claim 10 , wherein the cable receiving part comprises first and second bending ribs, and a hollow portion defined by the first and the second bending ribs, and the first and the second bending ribs have elasticity. 
   
   
       12 . The stand as claimed in  claim 9 , wherein the rear bracket comprises at least one penetrated hole. 
   
   
       13 . The stand as claimed in  claim 9 , wherein the rear bracket comprises an anti-falling member, one side of which is coupled thereto and the other side of which is coupled to an object placed on the upper member. 
   
   
       14 . The stand as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein the rear pillar assembly comprises a pair of rear pillars spaced apart from each other, and a rear bracket disposed between the pair of rear pillars, the pair of rear pillars and the rear bracket being integrally formed. 
   
   
       15 . The stand as claimed in  claim 14 , wherein the rear pillar assembly further comprises at least one cable band and a cable receiving part. 
   
   
       16 . The stand as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein at least one intermediate member is disposed between the lower member and the upper member. 
   
   
       17 . The stand as claimed in  claim 16 , wherein a supporting unit supports a front end and a rear end of the at least one intermediate member to the pillar member. 
   
   
       18 . The stand as claimed in  claim 17 , wherein friction members are interposed between portions of the at least one intermediate member and the supporting unit, which are in contact with each other. 
   
   
       19 . A stand comprising:
 an upper member on which an object is placed;   at least a pair of front pillars that supports the upper member at a predetermined height, the at least a pair of front pillars being movable left and right with respect to the upper member;   at least one subsidiary member selectively mountable to the upper member and/or the at least a pair of front pillars; and   a rear pillar assembly that supports a rear surface of the upper member.   
   
   
       20 . The stand as claimed in  claim 19 , wherein the at least one subsidiary member comprises at least two subsidiary members, each having a different size. 
   
   
       21 . The stand as claimed in  claim 19 ,
 wherein the upper member has a supporting member installed thereto,   wherein the at least a pair of front pillars has moving members installed thereto, the movable members being movable with respect to the supporting member, respectively.   
   
   
       22 . The stand as claimed in  claim 19 , further comprising a lower member spaced apart from the upper member, and an intermediate member disposed between the lower member and the upper member. 
   
   
       23 . The stand as claimed in  claim 19 , wherein the rear pillar assembly comprises:
 a pair of rear pillars that supports rear surfaces of the lower and the upper members; and   a rear bracket disposed between the pair of rear pillars.   
   
   
       24 . A stand comprising:
 a lower member;   an upper member spaced from the lower member;   at least a pair of front pillars that supports front surfaces of the lower and the upper members;   at least one subsidiary member selectively mountable to the upper member and/or the at least a pair of front pillars;   a rear pillar assembly that supports rear surfaces of the lower and the upper members; and   a moving unit that moves the at least a pair of front pillars left and right with respect to the lower and the upper members.   
   
   
       25 . The stand as claimed in  claim 24 , wherein the moving unit comprises:
 an upper supporting member installed to the upper member;   at least a pair of upper moving members movable with respect to the upper supporting member, the at least a pair of upper moving members being fixed to the at least a pair of front pillars, respectively;   a lower supporting member installed to the lower member; and   at least a pair of lower moving members movable with respect to the lower supporting member, the at least a pair of lower moving members being fixed to the at least a pair of front pillars, respectively.   
   
   
       26 . The stand as claimed in  claim 24 , wherein at least one intermediate member is disposed between the lower member and the upper member. 
   
   
       27 . The stand as claimed in  claim 24 , wherein the rear pillar assembly comprises:
