Claims20
An ergonomic keyboard positioning system, comprising
- a frame;
- a keyboard support attached to the frame and accommodating a keyboard upon a keyboard supporting surface of the keyboard support and the keyboard support having a proximate portion adjacent to a user area and a distal portion away from the user area;
- a keyboard clamp to attach the keyboard support to the frame at a user-selectable angle of rotation to position a keyboard supporting surface of the keyboard support away from the user area;
- and
- a supporting clamp configured to selectively attach the ergonomic keyboard positioning system to a table top via a plurality of engagement members to engage the table top at least one top-facing point of the table top and at least one bottom-facing point of the table top and support the ergonomic keyboard positioning system horizontally beyond the edge of the table surface when attached thereto.

A method, comprising:
- providing a frame to engage a work surface;
- supporting, by the frame, a keyboard support at a first user selected angle rotated away from a user;
- and
- wherein the angle is determined in accordance with the user's current preference;
- and
- wherein the frame further comprises a longitudinal rotational support comprising a longitudinal axis, the longitudinal rotational member pivotably attaching the keyboard support to the frame to enable the user-selectable angle of rotation to comprise a pivot axially parallel with the longitudinal axis.

A desk, comprising:
- a desk surface;
- a frame;
- and
- a keyboard support attached to the frame, accommodating a keyboard upon a keyboard supporting surface of the keyboard support, and the keyboard support having a proximate portion adjacent to a user area and a distal portion away from the user area;
- wherein the keyboard support is rotationally adjustable to pitch away from the user area and cause the proximate portion to be higher than the distal portion;
- and
- wherein the frame further comprises a longitudinal rotational support comprising a longitudinal axis, the longitudinal rotational member pivotably attaching the keyboard support to the frame to enable the user-selectable angle of rotation to comprise a pivot axially parallel with the longitudinal axis.
