Hey guys/gals.

Im about to start a new project but im looking for a specific part if anyone can help me..im looking for a spring activated Lock hinge.

I am building a Touchscreen coffee table soon....i want the monitor to be built into the cabinet and  attached to a plate/arms and one the monitor is pushed down on the TV will rise at an angle towards me. Then once i push the monitor/tv down flat it locks into position again.

I have been looking and came across this but it doesnt seem spring activated or lock....Friction hinge

Can anyone help on this? or advise me how i could have the Tv raise towards me when i push down on screen?

thanks in advance

Something like that....but it has to be spring loaded or something as stated that will raise a tv/monitor from a horizontal to about 45-60 degrees viewing angle...when sitting on sofa

Is it like the ones Im using on my project "A Little Rage"?

Sounds like you're planning something that works like "Project Morph" by g-rock26.

This thread talks a bit more about the build and has a link to the actuator and talks about about the shroud to mask the backside when tilted up..
