  • Patent number: 8611076
    Abstract: A multi-positional stand and under-cabinet mount for a tablet computer comprising a mounting plate, a hinge member, a base member, a hinge pin, 2 cam-actuated handles, a base mount and an attachment knob. The mounting plate can be temporarily coupled to the center of the back of a tablet computer with hook-and-loop (or similar) two-part, fastening material (of prior art). The mounting plate can be rotationally attached to the flat face on the top front of the hinge member allowing the attached tablet computer to rotate. The bottom of the hinge member can be pivotally attached to the front of the base member with the hinge pin oriented horizontally allowing the recline angle of said tablet computer to be adjusted. The angular position of the hinge member and base member can be locked in place, in any one of an infinite number of angular positions within a range, by the manipulation of the 2 cam-actuated handles.
