The apparatus comprises a spaced apart pair of elements each including a support element having a side inverted U-shaped opening to store a keyboard therein, a slideable shelf, a top support shelf to support a computer monitor including short downwardly extending back and sides, a first and second channel means for engaging the tops of the support elements, a slideable storage shelf positioned directly beneath the support shelf located in a drawer cavity, the storage shelf having a plurality of elongated side rails to permit the shelf to be manually and smoothly slideable between a document stored position and an extended document acccess position.

Abstract: A modular stackable shelf storage apparatus for stacking with other units with a top shelf providing a base for mounting a facsimile machine, wherein a body unit is adapted to be interlockably stacked together with the units to provide segregated shelf spaces for storing documents such as are produced by a facsimile machine, the body unit having a flat top surface, first and second sides and an open front to define an open space within the body unit including a centrally disposed hollow finger serving as a space divider and as a mounting device; whereby in stacking two or more units together a firm base mount is provided for a facsimile machine and a plurality of shelf storage spaces are provided for segregated storage of documents.

Abstract: A compact paper cutter and perforated edge paper trimmer apparatus which comprises: a base, a base cover hingedly connected to the base to move between an open and closed position, the base cover having a slidable knife edge for cutting paper against a hard strip material on the surface of the base when in a closed position over the base, a paper edge guide hingedly connected to the base to move between an edge guide position generally perpendicular to the base and a closed position adjacent the base, and perforated edge holding teeth and a lever to move the teeth between an upright perforated edge holding position above the base surface and a non-holding position below the base surface.

Abstract: An inexpensive, compact, portable, visual indicator electrical plug-type surge protector which comprises an electrical plug body composed of a molded transparent polymer, the plug body having an extended male grounding prong and a pair of male electrical prongs on one face and a female receiving grounding inlet and a pair of female receiving inlets on the opposite face. The plug body contains in a visually indicating position, generally slightly below the surface of the plug body, a metal oxide varistor electrically connected to the electrical outlet plug so as to prevent electrical surges from passing through the surge protector from the electrical source into which the electrical plug-type surge protector is plugged and to be activated and to change color on the occurrence of an electrical surge so that the user of the surge protector will know when the electrical surge has been received and thereby be able to replace the surge protector with a new surge protector.

Abstract: A document holder clip which comprises a right angle support bracket to be secured to the side of a monitor screen, an extending arm pivotably engaged with the support bracket and a document holder clip adaptable for slidable movement on the upper edge of the extending arm, which clip has two generally parallel clip arms and opposing jaw edges and includes a resilient spring finger at one end of one arm and a retainer at the one end of the other arm, the spring finger resiliently holding the jaw elements at the other end in a biased, closed position and on the application of finger pressure, the end of the spring finger moves slidably inward to open the jaws to an open position to permit the insertion of a document.

Abstract: A keyboard storage apparatus for supporting a keyboard and for moving the supported keyboard between a storage, non-use position and an extended, use position. The apparatus comprises a spaced apart pair of elements each including a support element having a side inverted U-shaped opening to store a keyboard therein; an elongated, slidable shelf adapted for slidable movement within the opening between a storage position wherein the keyboard is within the opening and a use position wherein the keyboard extends beyond the end of the support element; and a fixed front and adjustable back keyboard retainer on the shelf to retain the keyboard in position.
