  • Publication number: 20230075001
    Abstract: A folding base is provided for supporting and optionally charging an object positioned thereon. The folding base transitions from a folded configuration, where a flap hinged to a main body is folded flat against the main body, so that an object support surface of the main body is in a substantially horizontal orientation, to a deployed configuration, where the flap remains horizontal and supports the main body in a tilted orientation. The object can be supported in both configurations due to the retractable object support that is retractable when in the folded configuration so that the object can lay flat on the object support surface without interference from the retractable object support and automatically extendable in the deployed configuration so that the object can lean on the object support surface with object resting on the retractable object support.
