Patent attributes
The desk extension is quickly and conveniently attached and removed from the edge of a desk or table to provide additional surface area for the user. The desk extension has two parallel panels or levels when deployed to maximize the available area. The two panels are held parallel to one another when deployed, and one panel folds into a recess in the bottom of the other panel for storage when not in use. A clamp mechanism includes two folding clamps that are pivoted beneath the upper plate of the clamp assembly for compact storage when not in use. The clamp mechanism is pivotally attached to the edges of the lower panel to position the two panels horizontally when the extension is attached to a sloped surface, or to position the two panels at an oblique angle, if desired.
