Further, the holder is made hollow to provide a storage compartment. A rib is located along one edge of the copy holder to receive a line guide, which is structured so that it may be pivoted from the copy surface.

  • Patent number: 4728159
    Abstract: A file storage unit has a generally rectangular frame which is open at the front for receipt of a sliding drawer. The drawer has downwardly projecting ridges which slide along the interior of the frame. In addition, the front portion of the frame is provided with a snap-on reinforcing rim which acts to strengthen the unit and to accommodate the stacking of several units. A stop means is provided on the drawer which contacts a portion of the rim to prevent the drawer from being accidently withdrawn from the frame. Further, openings on the rear wall of the frame and in the handle of the drawer allow the unit to be conveniently carried.
