Abstract
A movable fixture for supporting an object including a planar support panel and transit tabs. The planar support panel has left and right rear legs to position the planar support panel at a viewing angle when sitting on a horizontal surface. A transit tab extends outwardly from the rear surface at a location that is hand-accessible through a gap bordered by one of the lateral edges of the panel and the respective rear leg. The transit tab properly positions the user's hand to ergonomically grasp the object and panel for secure movement.
Claims20
A movable fixture for supporting an object comprising:
- a planar support panel with (i) a rear surface (ii) a handle spaced from the rear surface to form a slot therebetween and (iii) left and right lateral edges with left and right rear legs extending from respective left and right lateral edges to position the planar support panel at a viewing angle when sitting on a horizontal surface;
- and
- a transit tab extending outwardly from the rear surface at a location that is hand-accessible through a gap bordered by one of the lateral edges and the respective rear leg;
- wherein the planar support panel is adapted to have a ladder including rungs and a pair of rails passing through the slot, and wherein the transit tab is oriented at a gripping angle that is adapted to selectively capture one of the rungs of the ladder between the transit tab and the rear surface to suspend the planar support panel at a range of different heights within a workspace.

A movable fixture for supporting an object comprising:
- a planar support panel including:
- a front surface, a bottom edge and an object retaining lip along at least a portion of the bottom edge extending outwardly from said planar support panel to form an angle with the front surface between about 45 and 90 degrees;
- a rear surface, left and right lateral edges with left and right rear legs extending from respective left and right lateral edges to position the planar support panel at a viewing angle when sitting on a horizontal surface, left and right front legs extending from respective left and right lateral edges, wherein the rear legs are between about 2 to 8 times longer than the front legs;
- and
- a top edge and a handle having two ends peripherally connected to the top edge at two locations near the lateral edges, wherein the handle is spaced from a central portion of the top edge to form a slot which is longer than the transit tab;
- and
- a transit tab extending outwardly from the rear surface at a location that is hand-accessible through a gap bordered by one of the lateral edges and the respective rear leg, wherein the transit tab is oriented at a gripping angle that is adapted to capture a rung of a ladder between the transit tab and the rear surface with the ladder disposed within the slot to suspend the planar support panel within a workspace.

- a rear surface having a handle spaced from the rear surface to form a slot therebetween, left and right lateral edges with left and right rear legs extending from respective left and right lateral edges to position the planar support panel at a viewing angle when sitting on a horizontal surface, left and right front legs extending from respective left and right lateral edges, wherein the rear legs are between about 2 to 8 times longer than the front legs, a skirt extending from a lateral edge generally perpendicular to the planar support surface in the same direction as a rear leg and a cradle at a lateral edge;
- and
- a transit tab extending outwardly from the rear surface at a location that is hand-accessible through a gap bordered by one of the lateral edges and the respective rear leg, wherein the cradle is adapted to guide and support a user's hand when accessing the transit tab,
- wherein the transit tab is oriented at a gripping angle that is adapted to capture a rung of a ladder between the transit tab and the rear surface with the ladder disposed within the slot to suspend the planar support panel within a workspace.
