Abstract
An apparatus for enabling movement of a binder between stored and readable positions relative to a support, including a first link, securable to the support, contoured in shape, and a second link, securable to the binder, interconnectable with the first link, contoured in shape, slidably movable along a portion of the contour of the first link which extends in two planes, such that the binder is movable therealong between stored and readable positions, to enable access to and reading of the book enclosed in the binder, such as telephone directories, and storage thereof relative to the support, such as a shelf in a telephone enclosure, in a convenient and efficient manner.
Claims4
An apparatus adapted to interconnect a binder to a support to enable movement of the binder between stored and readable positions relative to the support, comprising:
- (a) a first link, securable to the support, contoured in shape, which forms a closed link with the support, the contour of which includes a substantially J-shaped first end portion, a substantially straight intermediate portion curved at the ends thereof, extending at an angle from, and in a plane substantially perpendicular to, the plane of the J-shaped first end portion, and a substantially straight second end portion extending from, and in the plane of, the intermediate portion, generally perpendicular to the first end portion;
- and
- (b) a second link, rigidly securable to the binder, interconnectable with the first link, contoured in shape, slidably movable along a portion of the contour of the first link such that the binder is movable in a limited constrained path therealong between stored and readable positions, which forms a closed loop with the binder.
