  • Patent number: 5342005
    Abstract: A forearm support apparatus for a keyboard operator is disclosed including first and second forearm support units. Each of the support units includes a base member having a tapered wall and a flat bottom wall. A complementing upper member has a similar taper and is secured to upper wall and an inverse orientation to raise the tapered wall to a top surface. The top member is formed of a highly resilient compressible material to receive the forearm which depresses the material and supports the forearm. The support units are mounted in laterally spaced relation with the tapered upper walls extending inwardly and downwardly toward each other. The forearms are thereby biased inwardly toward each other in restrict outward displacement. The members are formed symmetrically about a transverse plane generally parallel to the keyboard. The top member has a shorter length than the bottom member to define forward and front and back recesses.
