Abstract
A device is provided for securing a writing tablet to a frame member. The tablet defines first and second opposing lateral edges. The device comprises an elongate bar, a clamp member, and first and second support elements. The elongate bar defines a distal end. The clamp member is attached to the distal end of the bar and is fastenable to the frame member. The first and second support elements are attached to the bar and are positionable along a length of the bar. The support elements each include an engagement surface configured to engage the first and second lateral edges of the tablet.
Claims5
A clipboard mounting device for securing a clipboard to a frame member, the clipboard defining first and second opposing lateral edges, the device comprising:
- an elongate bar defining distal and proximate ends;
- a clamp member being attached to the distal end of the bar and being fastenable to the frame member;
- and
- first and second support elements being attached to the bar, the first support element being disposed at the proximate end of the bar, the second support element being slidably positionable along a length of the bar, the second support element including a slot being sized and configured to receive the bar therethrough to facilitate the slidable motion of the second support element on the bar, the support elements each including an engagement surface configured to engage the first and second lateral edges of the tablet to laterally capture the tablet, wherein the second support element includes upper and lower clamp portions being connectable to each other and defining the slot therebetween, the upper and lower clamp members being selectively adjustable relative to each other to adjust the size of the slot.
A clipboard mounting device for securing a clipboard to a frame member, the clipboard defining first and second opposing lateral edges, the device comprising:
- an elongate bar defining distal and proximate ends;
- a clamp member being attached to the distal end of the bar and being fastenable to the frame member;
- and
- first and second support elements being attached to the bar, the first and second support elements being slidably positionable along a length of the bar, the first and second support elements each including a slot and a bar fastener, the slot being sized and configured to receive the bar therethrough to facilitate the slidable motion of the respective ones of the first and second support elements on the bar, the bar fastener being selectively adjustable to reduce the size of the slot for securing the respective ones of the first and second support elements to the bar, the first and second support elements each including an engagement surface configured to engage the first and second lateral edges of the tablet to laterally capture the tablet, wherein the first and second support elements each include a hole and the bar fastener is a bolt, the hole being directed from an outer surface of the respective ones of the first and second support elements inwardly until reaching the respective slot, the bolt being selectively insertable into the hole to engage the bar disposed through the slot, the engagement of the bolt with the bar being operative to impede movement of the respective ones of the first and second securing elements along the bar.
A clipboard mounting device for securing a clipboard to a frame member, the clipboard defining first and second opposing lateral edges, the device comprising:
- an elongate bar defining distal and proximate ends;
- a clamp member being attached to the distal end of the bar and being fastenable to the frame member, wherein the clamp member is a C-clamp including a movable jaw and a fixed jaw, the movable jaw being movable along the bar relative to the fixed jaw for capturing the frame member therebetween;
- and
- first and second support elements being attached to the bar, the first and second support elements being slidably positionable along a length of the bar, the first and second support elements each including a slot and a bar fastener, the slot being sized and configured to receive the bar therethrough to facilitate the slidable motion of the respective ones of the first and second support elements on the bar, the bar fastener being selectively adjustable to reduce the size of the slot for securing the respective ones of the first and second support elements to the bar, the first and second support elements each including an engagement surface configured to engage the first and second lateral edges of the tablet to laterally capture the tablet.
