Abstract: A thumbrest for a handgun is provided, the thumbrest having at least a thumb support and a support base. The support base may be configured for mounting to the handgun. The thumb support may be pivotably movable with respect to the support base or a lateral side of a handgun frame, pivoting between a collapsed position, wherein the thumb support may be folded up adjacent to, or in contact with, the support base or the lateral side of the handgun frame, and an extended position, wherein the thumb support may be pivoted away from the support base or the lateral side of the handgun frame. In other embodiments, a spring may be configured to bias the thumb support toward the extended position, and a stop structure may be configured to limit pivotal movement of the thumb support, such that liming pivotal movement of the thumb support defines the extended position.

Abstract: A portable computer workstation for ergonomic use in crowded work settings such as hospitals, factories, laboratories and automobile service facilities, is described. The workstation includes a rectangularly shaped box cabinet with a keyboard drawer slidably mounted to it. A window assembly is mounted to the top of the cabinet. The window assembly enables an external user to view a computer monitor that is mounted within the cabinet under the window. The window protects the computer monitor from chemical spills and other potentially damaging contaminants. The cabinet is also preferably mounted on four lockable casters so that the same can be moved easily from one location to another. When the keyboard drawer is concealed within the cabinet, the workstation preferably takes up only a small amount of floor space and presents a substantially smooth catch-free and easily cleanable exterior surface.

Abstract: A computer workstation for use in a hospital setting is described. The workstation includes a box shaped cabinet with a keyboard drawer slidably mounted to it. A window assembly is mounted to the top of the cabinet. The window assembly enables the user to view the monitor of the workstation which is mounted within the cabinet to its own base for sturdiness and damage prevention. The cabinet also includes four wheels mounted at each corner of its base. Optionally, the cabinet can include additional drawers for other computer parts and other supplies. The window assembly is substantially leak-proof to prevent chemicals and other hazardous materials from entering the interior of the cabinet and damaging the electronic equipment found within the cabinet. The fasteners that are used to mount the monitor and other parts to the cabinet are concealed inside the cabinet to provide a smooth and easy cleaning surface.
