US Patent 6994336 Counter-mountable cutting board

A cutting board has a cutting platform and a clamp assembly to securely mount the cutting board to a counter edge. The cutting platform has an elevated planar cutting surface supported on a narrower base. The cutting board includes a removable receptacle for location over a sink, and hook features for hanging trash bags. The cutting board uses the narrow counter space located at the front of the sink to provide a useful cutting or chopping surface. The board occupies very little sink space and allows access to the sink and water taps for other washing chores once it is mounted to the counter. The clamp assembly hooks or clamps around the counter edge to prevent the cutting board from toppling during use.
