STAND FOR SUPPORTING A PORTABLE ELECTRONIC DEVICE

摘要

The present invention is a stand for supporting a portable device at an inclined angle relative to a flat surface. The stand includes a frame that is securable to the device and a support secured to the frame. The support is movable in an aperture in the frame between a collapsed position and an erected position. A first portion of the support extends outwardly beyond an exterior surface of the frame, when in the erected position, and engages the flat surface. A second portion of the support remains parallel to the interior surface of the frame when in both the collapsed and erected positions. A tether is connectable to the frame to suspend the device from a vertical flat surface.
