Patent number: 8488306Abstract: A secondary computing device display system includes a removable attachment mechanism operable to removably attach a secondary computing device display to a primary computing device display. The removable attachment mechanism comprises a first attachment member, operable to slideably attach to the secondary computing device display, and a second attachment member, comprising a clamping trench and a clamp locking lever. The second attachment member is operable to removably clamp the primary computing device display by inserting a clamping ridge of the primary computing device display in the clamping trench and engaging a notched surface of the clamping ridge with the clamp locking lever. The first and second attachment member are frictionally rotatable with respect to each other along a first axis and a second axis.Type: GrantFiled: November 2, 2010Date of Patent: July 16, 2013Assignee: Sideline, Inc.Inventors: Benjamin L. Mickey, David C. Ramsperger, Brad Fulghum, Miguel Chapa

Patent number: 7889481Abstract: A secondary computing device display system includes a removable attachment mechanism operable to removably attach a secondary computing device display to a primary computing device display. The removable attachment mechanism comprises a first attachment member, operable to lockably attach to the secondary computing device display, and a second attachment member, comprising a first clamping portion and a second clamping portion. The first and second clamping portions are operable to removably clamp the primary computing device display within a gap defined between the first and second clamping portions. The first and second attachment member are frictionally rotatable with respect to each other along a first axis and a second axis. A surface of the primary computing device display is adapted to engage the second attachment member and utilize friction to reduce the amount of pressure sufficient to removably clamp.Type: GrantFiled: November 7, 2008Date of Patent: February 15, 2011Assignee: Sideline, Inc.Inventors: Benjamin L. Mickey, John H. Takamura, Jr., Dosun Shin, Mark S. Chichester, David C. Ramsperger, Dane A. Wesenberg, Brad Fulghum, Miguel Chapa
