Title: Adjustable mounting structure for video telephone unit

Abstract: Disclosed is a swivel mounting structure for a video-telephone unit. The mounting structure allows the unit to be readily rotated and inclined or be moved with a combination of both movements. The structure will maintain the unit in the position to which it is set by either the friction provided by mechanical locking members or by having the center of gravity of the unit positioned above the center of a pair of spaced rocker members riding within a cylindrical opening.
