Abstract

ABSTRACT

"Manual Mate" is a heavy-duty stand for holding Industrial manuals. It is known to be adjustable so as to be usuable from a standing or sitting position, with a metal top that can set at an angle to compensate for height adjustment and removable for bench use.

Description

SPECIFICATION
This invention relates to the holding of manuals near or at work station, or on work bench.
It is common in devices of this nature that they are not rigid enough to hold large manuals, e.g., music stands which will not stand up to the rigorous situations of constant abuse when used in a service atmosphere.
I have found that these disadvantages may be overcome by building a larger, much heavier, adjustable stand with a heavier base.
Accompanying separate pages covers drawings for "Manual nateR. ; j .. .

The form of the list and of the description is illustrated by the following:
In drawings which illustrate embodiments of the invention, Figure 1 is a front view partly in section of one embodiment. Figure 2 is a side view of this embodiment. Figure 3 is a rear view of reading tray embodiment.
Figure 1 embodiment overview: -The tool illustrated comprises of a balanced tripod stand C and G using rubber caps D and F for gripping action when floor mounted. Item E are mounted end caps. Item ~ is a telescoping extension for raising/lowering J, the reading tray.
Lock handle A is used for maintaining the desired height.
Figure 2 embodiment overview:
This side view illustrates the balanced tripod stand C and G às well as mounting system used for reading tray J. The reading tray support tongue L
is both located on top of H, and retained tightly by another lock handle A. Loosening of A allows removal of reading tray J from the stand when J is to be remote mounted on a work surface. It should be noted that item C can pivot to allow folding of the tripod stand for storage at fastening bolt B.
Figure 3 emobidment overview:
This rear view of reading tray J emcompasses recognition of reinforcement rib ~ on the tray. In addition, item K is the rubber reading tray edge molding. Positioning of two friction discs Q
between reading tray support tongue L and inside ears R of reading tray permits two steel belleville washers N, and fastening bolt P, to secure reading tray tongue L. Proper torqueing of fastening bolt P achieves necessary preload for reading tray J
tilting control. The tongue crossbar S, and associated two rubber caps T, allow for gripping action with K when reading tray J is remote mounted on a work surface.
All components of this heavy duty service manual support system are made of steel. No aluminum metal stock is used. The addition of a power paint process keeps assembly bright and clear from oxidation.
