Portable-device presentation system

摘要

Apparatus and associated methods relate to a portable-device presentation system having a substantially-planar substrate; a first clamp coupled to the substrate; and a second clamp slidably coupled to the substrate, each of the first and second clamps having respective opposing contact surfaces that have substantially no curvature along axes substantially parallel to the substantially-planar substrate at a contact elevation above the substantially-planar substrate, wherein when a user slides the second clamp to a maximum display-size position and lays a display device on the substantially-planar substrate between the first clamp and the second clamp, the user may then secure the display device to the presentation system by sliding the second clamp to sandwich the display device between the two respective opposing contact surfaces and securing the second clamp using a hand-operated securing member. In various embodiments, a presentation system may secure portable display devices of many different sizes.

主权项

1. A portable-device presentation system comprising:
a substrate having a substantially-planar top surface; a plurality of clips integrally formed and interiorly biased to releasably engage the substrate to a portable drawing station for storage, insertion, and removal of a sheet of paper and for providing access to said sheet of paper when inserted or stored, said portable drawing station comprising:
a holder having an access opening;means for inserting and removing a planar substrate into and from said holder;means for retaining the sheet of paper received through said means for insertion and removal within said holder; and means for positioning the sheet of paper to be accessed through said access opening; a first clamp member coupled to the substrate, the first clamp member having a first portable-device contacting surface at an acute angle to the substantially-planar top surface of the substrate; and a second clamp member slidably coupled to the substrate, the second clamp member having a second portable-device contacting surface at an acute angle to the substantially-planar top surface of the substrate, wherein when a user slides the second clamp member to a maximum display-size position and lays a display device on the substantially-planar substrate between the first clamp member and the second clamp member, the user may then secure the display device to the presentation system by sliding the second clamp member to sandwich the display device between the first portable-device contacting surface of the first clamp member and the second portable-device contacting surface of the second clamp member and there securing the second clamp member using a hand-operated securing member.
