Patent attributes
A laptop elevation device (1) that attaches to a bottom surface (13) of a laptop (12). Each laptop elevation device has a fold-up leg (2) pivotally or hingedly attached to a base (3). An arm (5) is pivotally attached to the base. When the laptop elevation device is in an open position, the arm may be folded downward to engage one of a plurality of holes (9) located on the leg, thereby locking the laptop elevation device at a desired height. The base may be built into a laptop or attached to the underside of an existing laptop using an attachment means (14). The leg may also have a layer of rubber (11) to prevent the leg from slipping while in use. A clip (11) located on the base locks the leg and arm in place while the laptop elevation device is in folded position. An additional feature of the laptop elevation device is one or more non-slip strips (20) that attach to the underside of a laptop to allow the front portion of the laptop to hang over the edge of a flat surface (22) while the laptop is in an elevated position. An alternative embodiment of the laptop elevation device provides a handle (17) for carrying the laptop computer.
