[Stand 200]
FIG. 5 is a side view of the stand 200 of the information display system 1 of this embodiment. FIG. 5A is a side view showing the stand 200 in a moving state. FIG. 5B is a side view showing the stand 200 in the installed state.

The stand 200 has leg members 211 and 212 . Note that only the leg members 211 and 212 on the front side are illustrated in the side view of FIG. The stand 200 has leg members similar to leg members 211 and 212 on the opposite side. That is, the stand 200 has four leg members. Here, the leg members 211 and 212 illustrated in the side view of FIG. 5 will be described.

The leg member 211 holds the holding member 220 movably in the longitudinal direction (vertical direction) of the leg member 211 . Since the holding member 220 can move in the longitudinal direction (vertical direction) with respect to the leg member 211 in this manner, the height of the information display device 100 can be changed.

The upper end of the leg member 211 and the upper end of the leg member 212 are attached via hinges 250 so that they can be opened and closed. That is, the hinge 250 connects one end of each of the leg members 211 and 212 so that the angle between the leg members 211 and 212 can be changed. The hinge 250 may be provided with a lock (angle fixing member) for fixing the set angle. In that case, for example, a plurality of discrete angles may be set and fixed. By changing the angle between the leg members 211 and 212 of the hinge 250, the angle of the information display device 100 with respect to a plane perpendicular to the ground G (installation plane) can be changed. That is, when the angle between the leg members 211 and 212 of the hinge 250 is increased, the angle of the information display device 100 when installed with respect to a plane perpendicular to the ground G (installation surface) is increased. As a result, the angle of the screen that is easy for the user to use can be set. In addition, in the stand 200 of the present embodiment, the hinge 250 is integrated with the member that holds the holding member 220 with the leg member 211 . Also, the hinge 250 is an example of a connecting portion.

The leg member 211 includes a stopper member 231 and casters 241 at the lower end of the leg member 211 (the other end opposite to the one end attached to the hinge 250). The stopper member 231 is obliquely attached inside the leg member 211 (on the leg member 212 side of the leg member 211). The caster 241 is attached to the tip of the end of the leg member 211 . In addition, the leg member 212 includes a stopper member 232 and casters 242 at the lower end of the leg member 212 (the other end opposite to the one end attached to the hinge 250). The stopper member 232 is obliquely attached inside the leg member 212 (on the leg member 211 side of the leg member 212). The caster 242 is attached to the tip of the end of the leg member 212 .

The moving state of FIG. 5A is a state when the stand 200 (information display system 1) is moved. In the moving state, the stand 200 sets the angle θ1 between the leg members 211 and 212 to about 10 degrees, for example. In the moving state, the casters 241 and 242 of the stand 200 are grounded on the ground G (installation surface). On the other hand, the stopper member 231 and the stopper member 232 do not touch the ground G (installation surface). That is, the stopper member 231 and the stopper member 232 are separated from the ground G (installation surface). Therefore, the stand 200 (information display system 1) can be freely moved by the casters 241 and 242. FIG. In particular, when moving with the information display device 100 attached, by moving in a direction parallel to the screen of the information display device 100, it is possible to achieve portability such that narrow passages and doors can be smoothly passed. do. Note that the angle θ1 is an example of the first angle.

The installation state of FIG. 5B is a state when the stand 200 (information display system 1) is installed and the position is fixed. In the installed state, the stand 200 sets the angle θ2 between the leg members 211 and 212 to about 25 degrees, for example. In the installed state, the stopper members 231 and 232 of the stand 200 are in contact with the ground G (installation surface). On the other hand, the casters 241 and 242 are not in contact with the ground G (installation surface), but are floating from the ground G (installation surface). That is, the casters 241 and 242 are separated from the ground G (installation surface). Therefore, the stand 200 (information display system 1) cannot be moved by the casters 241 and 242, and the installation position of the stand 200 (information display system 1) is fixed. Note that the angle θ2 is an example of the second angle.

In addition, the stopper member 231 and the stopper member 232 may be provided with a non-slip member at a place where the tip of the stopper member 231 and the stopper member 232 touches the ground G (installation surface). In the installed state, if the stopper members 231 and 232 of the stand 200 are in contact with the ground G (installation surface), the casters 241 and 242 are in contact with the ground G (installation surface). good too. If the stopper member 231 and the stopper member 232 are in contact with the ground G (installation surface), movement can be prevented to some extent. However, in order to fix the installation position more stably, the casters 241 and 242 should not be in contact with the ground G (installation surface).

The installation state will be described in more detail. FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating the stand in an installed state. FIG. 6 is an enlarged side view of the casters 241 and 242 and the stopper members 231 and 232. FIG. As shown in FIG. 6, when the stopper members 231 and 232 are grounded on the ground G (installation surface), the casters 241 and 242 float above the ground G (installation surface) by a height h. Since the casters 241 and 242 are floating from the ground G (installation surface), the position of the stand 200 (information display system 1) can be fixed.
