Description

1 TARIFF DUAL-FUNCTION ERGONOMIC STAND Technical Area 5 The invention relates to the use of electronic devices such as laptops and tablets, as well as flat surfaces. various activities requiring a supporting surface in different spaces (bed, to ensure that tasks (such as using a chair or desk) can be performed ergonomically. Developed for this purpose; interchangeable alternative leg elements (angled and straight) 10 via a double device, both in an inclined position and in a horizontal position parallel to the ground. allowing for functional use, without any screws or mechanical components. mortise and tenon joints for parts without hinges or movable joints. It relates to a modular and multipurpose stand (S) that locks together with its geometry. State of the Art In technical areas, portable computer and tablet stands have different height and angle settings. adjustable settings, assembly of parts, and different usage scenarios. For adaptation, mechanical hinges, circular joints, telescopic 20 are generally used. levers, screw clamping devices or folding metal / plastic leg mechanisms It is used. These stand and table systems involve multiple movable parts that interlock with each other. It can operate by being connected via mechanisms or screws, 25 This situation creates a structure that is susceptible to mechanical failures, especially during use. The constant hand and wrist pressure during this process affects these movable hinge and joint points. over time, it becomes loose, creating tolerance gaps and causing the structure to wobble, this leads to the product losing its locking capability and ultimately its ergonomic function. This leads to its loss. 30 Another major structural feature of existing stands in the known state of the art is... The disadvantage is that the usage platforms are confined to a single form and function. 2 The problem is that the products on the market are either only fixed angle with a specific slope or not. These are fixed, flat structures used either as structures or simply as risers. Angled (inclined) the usage platform and the flat (horizontal) usage platform, movable and susceptible to damage a stable system that unites components in a single, simple body without using any complex mechanisms. No system available. 5 In addition, the design of the support surfaces in existing desktop fixtures. It is usually insufficient. When the stand is positioned at an angle, gravity... This will prevent the mouse or external devices from sliding down and falling as a result. Properly positioned protective stoppers and anti-slip components are missing. 10 The computer and mouse should not be positioned at incorrect angles on a single surface, or the mouse... positioning on a surface that it cannot grip; hand, wrist and forearm during use This leads to the muscles bending at an unnatural angle, over time. Studies show that it can lead to muscle fatigue and conditions such as carpal tunnel syndrome. It causes. 15 The system described in the invention overcomes this structural instability in the prior art by creating a uniform structure. necessity of use and ergonomic inadequacy; any movable hinge, alternative leg elements (angled or) that do not contain screws or mechanical locks 20 (flat) fitting onto the carrier plate with millimeter tolerances (mortise and tenon) principle It surpasses expectations. The system can be completed in seconds simply by changing the foot components. It can switch from angled to flat use, with peaks at the connection points. Thanks to the locking mechanism supported by double-sided tape added to their surfaces, no mechanical... It can maintain its original rigidity for years without needing any replacement parts. In this sense, a tool or screw that will eliminate all the aforementioned drawbacks. non-requiring, joint points do not wear out over time, and it preserves wrist ergonomics; Thanks to interchangeable simple parts, it can be used both "angled" and "flat". a stable structure that combines its functions in a single system is needed It is heard. 30 3 Purpose of the Invention The most fundamental purpose of the invention is to provide the user with a single top plate and interchangeable alternatives. With its leg elements (angled and straight), it can be used both on a bed / sofa and on a standard surface. Double 5 that allows working while standing at a desk. to create a functional stand and ensure the stability of the structure using movable hinges / screws It is achieved without separate parts, by directly fitting the parts together. The main technical aim of the invention is to increase the strength of the joint by means of lateral contacts. the tenons on the legs must pass completely through the slots in the top plate (open 10 The principle of mortise and tenon joints is to ensure tight fit into the sockets with millimeter tolerance. The seating position maximizes the friction surface, distributing the lateral and vertical loads of the stand. It provides resistance and structural integrity. The main ergonomic purpose of the invention is to allow lying down thanks to the angled connection geometry of the parts. 15 the user in that position sees the computer screen directly at eye level to provide and when the stand is placed on a table, it can be used standing up (standing desk) To make it easier. Another aim of the invention is to create a 20-inch space when the parts fit together with millimeter tolerance. In addition to holding each other tightly, the supports remaining on the sides of the mortises Thanks to the double-sided tape backing applied to surfaces, any mechanical when the product is lifted into the air or used without being locked The goal is to ensure that the parts do not separate at all. Finally, the purpose of the invention is to add materials (silicone, tape, etc.) to the top plate. The non-slip surface element created prevents the mouse from falling off the inclined surface. To prevent. The invention, as stated above and necessary for fulfilling its purpose, may include any hand tool, The mechanical lock allows the parts to fit together without the need for screws or external fasteners. thanks to the friction force created by passing it through and the geometric form retention It is a rigid, free-standing stand structure, 4 - A portable computer, mouse, or other objects placed on top of it at least one upper support plate in which it can be installed, - Located at the lower end of the upper support plate, and positioned so that devices / objects are angled. integrated according to the production material, preventing it from sliding down the surface at least one bent or externally attached lower stopper / 5 bending, - Mouse or external objects on the upper support plate Added to the lower end of the area where it will be positioned, to prevent downward sliding or the most effective way to prevent it from falling is in the form of wood, silicone, non-slip material or tape. at least one non-slip surface element, 10 - The stand's stable position on the floor (bed, sofa, table, etc.) providing at least two legs that can pass under the bed angled footrests and stand-up work on a tabletop or flat surface at least two alternative flat-footed elements that meet the need, - The leg elements and the upper support plate are joined with millimeter precision and 15 at least two that enable it to interlock with a friction-free tight fit tolerance the transition slot and at least two passages emerging to the surface through these slots number of open mortise and tenon joints, - The mortises must pass completely through the sockets and each of the leg elements must be present. at least one pair of 20 located on both the right and left carrier surfaces By providing strong adhesion with the support of double-sided tape, it provides a secure bond on the outer surface. It offers a screwless aesthetic and, when disassembled, comes in a flat-pack form. This is related to the fact that it includes a demountable structure. The structural and characteristic features, function and purpose of the invention are given in Figure 25 below.
