Another objective of the present invention is to provide a portable table for a notebook computer, wherein the foldable stand is fully expanded to support the main board, and the cover plate is pivoted outward relative to the main board to expose the notebook computer, so that a user seated on a chair can use the notebook computer supported on the main board easily and conveniently.
A further objective of the present invention is to provide a portable table for a notebook computer, wherein the hand grip of the cover plate facilitates the user carrying the portable table.
A further objective of the present invention is to provide a portable table for a notebook computer, wherein the shoulder belts of the main board facilitate the user carrying and operating the notebook computer.
In accordance with the present invention, there is provided a portable table for a notebook computer, comprising:
-
- a foldable stand; and
- a main board mounted on the foldable stand and having a first face formed with a rectangular receiving recess for receiving a notebook computer and a semi-circular receiving slot located beside the receiving recess for receiving the foldable stand when the foldable stand is collapsed.
Further benefits and advantages of the present invention will become apparent after a careful reading of the detailed description with appropriate reference to the accompanying drawings.
