US Patent 7339782 Multi-display screen console with front access

A console (10) includes a housing (14), as well as an upper display module (94) and a lower display module (38). A simple pivotal connection exists between the upper display module (94) and the housing (14) to allow it to move between its closed and open positions. A pair of upper linkages (54) and a pair of lower linkages (66) pivotally interconnect the lower display module (38) with the housing (14) to allow it to move between its closed and open positions. Moving the display modules (38, 94) to their open positions provides access to the interior (22) of the housing (14) and electronics (26) contained therein.
