It is to be understood that the descriptions below are merely illustrative of the presently preferred embodiments of the invention and that no limitations are intended to the detail of construction or design herein shown other than as defined in the appended claims. The descriptions that follow describe the intended and preferred use of each embodiment of the book-holding device.
  • The preferred embodiment of the book-holding device 5 comprises a handle 10, a spine-holder 20, a binding strap 30, a pair of arms 40, and a spring-loaded wire 50 connected to each of the pair or arms 40. The handle 10 further comprises a top end 12. The spine-holder 20 further comprises a top 22 and bottom. The top 22 of the spine-holder 20 further comprises a first receiver 24 and a second receiver 26 and the bottom further comprises a bottom ledge 28. The first receiver 24 receives the top end 12 of the handle 10 to form a rigid connection between the handle 10 and the spine-holder 20.

  • It is preferred that the pair of arms 40 be rotatably connected to a middle 24 of the spine-holder 20 and that the pair of arms 40 be extendable. This can be accomplished by constructing the pair of arms from square tube metal and inserting a smaller size square tube into the pair of arms 40 to serve as an extension arm 42. It is preferred to connect beads 52 to the ends of each spring-loaded wire 50.
  • It is also preferred that the handle 10 have a telescoping end 14 so that the length of the handle can vary. It is preferred that the telescoping end 14 be able to be locked in place by a knurled nut 16. The knurled nut 16 can be loosened to extend or retract to the desired position, then lightly tightened to hold in desired position. It is also preferred that the handle 10 have a comfort grip 14.
  • An alternate embodiment of the book-holding device includes a base unit 60. The base unit can be made from plastic and be releasably connected to a bottom of the handle 10 as shown in FIG. 3 and 4. In another alternative embodiment, the book-holding device includes a universal clamp that allows the book-holding device to be mounted on most any object, such as an exercise bike, treadmill, or countertop.
  • It is preferred to use the book-holding device 5 when reading paperback books or small to midsize hardcover books. For the embodiment shown in the attached drawings, it is preferred that the book being held weigh no more than 1.5 lbs and that the book height not exceed 10 inches.
  • The preferred steps to use the book-holding device 5 are as follows. First, place a book 70 on the book-holding device 5 with the book's 70 spine resting on the spine-holder 20. Next, open the book 70 to the approximate center page and pull the binding strap 30 over the book 70 and secure the knob 36 in the second receiver 26, located on the top 22. Then, with the pair of arms 40 in the horizontal position as shown in FIG. 3 and 4, extend the extension arms 42 ends out and place the two beads 52 on the pages desired for reading. It is preferred to use the extension arms 42 to position the beads 52 about 1″ to 1 ½″ in from the edge of the page. If difficulty is encountered when turning the page, it is suggested that the beads should be manually adjusted outward.
  • Although the invention has been described in detail with reference to one or more particular preferred embodiments, persons possessing ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains will appreciate that various modifications and enhancements may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the claims that follow. For example, accessories such as a light, a shade or a magnifier could be added to the book-holding device 5 for additional functionality.
