  • DETAILED DESCRIPTION
  • Before beginning a detailed description of the subject invention, mention of the following is in order. When appropriate, like reference materials and characters are used to designate identical, corresponding, or similar components in differing figure drawings. The figure drawings associated with this disclosure typically are not drawn with dimensional accuracy to scale, i.e., such drawings have been drafted with a focus on clarity of viewing and understanding rather than dimensional accuracy.
  • In the interest of clarity, not all of the routine features of the implementations described herein are shown and described. It will, of course, be appreciated that in the development of any such actual implementation, numerous implementation-specific decisions must be made in order to achieve the developer's specific goals, such as compliance with application- and business-related constraints, and that these specific goals will vary from one implementation to another and from one developer to another. Moreover, it will be appreciated that such a development effort might be complex and time-consuming, but would nevertheless be a routine undertaking of engineering for those of ordinary skill in the art having the benefit of this disclosure.
  • As shown in FIGS. 1-5, a foldable portable universal laptop computer holder and harness 10 for hands-free mobile use of a laptop while standing or walking 10 is provided and includes a laptop tray frame 12, a tray arm 14 connected to said tray frame 12 for supporting a laptop computer L, a torso bar 18 pivotally connected to said tray arm 14, wherein said tray arm 14 can pivot up essentially parallel in position to said torso bar 18 and can pivot down essentially perpendicular in position to said torso bar 18, a chest support 24 connected to said torso bar 18 wherein said chest support 24 can roll rotatably in relation to said torso bar 18, one or more housings 26 attached to said chest support 24 wherein said housings 26 can adjustably slide in relation to said chest support 24, and shoulder supports 28 pivotally connected to said housings 26 wherein said shoulder supports can pivot laterally in relation to said housings 26.
  • Laptop tray frame 12 attaches to tray arm 14. In an exemplary embodiment, tray frame is a rectangular “L” bar frame sized so that most laptop computers will sit within it, preferably 15% inches by 11½ inches. Tray arm 14 is pivotally attached to torso bar 18 and locks into position with a tray arm pivot pin 16. In open, pivot down, position tray arm is essentially at a right angle to torso bar 18, though it can work in a range of ±0 degrees of right angle. In the closed, pivot up, position, tray arm 14 is folded up essentially parallel, ±10 degrees, to torso bar 18.
