Embodiment Construction

[0034]The present invention has three aspects, as follows. A first aspect of the present invention is as a portable workstation as shown in FIGS. 1-13, for use with electronics equipment such as tablet computers, intelligent phones, notebook computers and netbook computers, by way of example. Here, a table portion or tray portion provides support for the electronic device. The materials used for the workstation are very lightweight to render the workstation readily portable and stowable, and yet because of the inventive design the workstation of the present invention is sufficiently strong to provide durability.

[0035]A further feature of the inventive workstation is an adjustably positionable umbrella, which when used outdoors provides protection from the sun so that screen glare does not prevent use of the electronic devices. When used indoors, the umbrella portion can be positioned out of the way, or it can be entirely omitted or removed. The workstation of the present invention t...

Abstract

A portable workstation can be folded so as to be readily portable, and has a seat portion and a table portion for holding a book, electronic device, and papers, among other things. The tray portion is adapted for use with electronics equipment, wherein the tray portion provides a support for the electronic device. The workstation has a main leg pivotably connected to a pair of legs. An umbrella can be connected to the workstation in the folded condition of the workstation, and can be opened and adjustably positioned in the unfolded condition of the workstation. In another embodiment, similar in structure to that of the workstation, a seat is provided, but omitting a table portion. A cane handle can be provided at the upper end of the workstation.
