Claims13
A removable cover for use with a clipboard having a planar base which provides a writing surface and which has a spring-biased clip at one end thereof, the cover comprising:
- a transparent arch extending from vertical sides, the arch having two ends and two sides, the arch forming an arc, each side of the arch meeting opposite sides of the clipboard, the arch thereby covering the clipboard;
- a closure at one end of the arch, the closure at the spring-biased end of the clipboard;
- an attachment, the attachment removably affixing the cover to the clipboard, the attachment comprising a track extending along one side of the arch, across a bottom of the closure, and along the opposite side of the arch, the track comprising:
- a first horizontal member, the first horizontal member extending outwardly from the sides of the arch, the first horizontal member continuing along the bottom of the closure;
- a second horizontal member spaced apart from the first horizontal member, the second horizontal member identical to the first horizontal member;
- a vertical border outwardly connecting the horizontals members,
- whereby the track removably surrounds substantially three edges of the clipboard, thereby providing slideable attachment to the clipboard;
- an aperture in the closure, the aperture providing for operation of the spring-biased clip, the track absent along the aperture;
- a coverlet affixed around the aperture, the coverlet over the spring-biased clip;
- an opening in a bottom of the coverlet, the opening adjoining the aperture, the opening providing for access to the spring-biased clip.

- an opening in a bottom of the coverlet, the opening adjoining the aperture, the opening providing for access to the spring-biased clip;
- illumination, the illumination comprising:
- a parallelepiped body affixed to an interior of the arch;
- a pair of spaced apart LED's disposed within the body, the LED's proximal to outer boundaries of the body;
- a battery disposed centrally within the body;
- connects, whereby the battery is connected to the LED's;
- a battery cap removably containing the battery within the body.
