Abstract
A document support stand (1) may be located at a computer workstation (24) and positioned to one side of a monitor (30) to support a projected document or document holder. The stand (1) combines a first support apparatus, support stand (2) and a second support apparatus document holder (4). Support stand (2) can support articles at various spatial locations without the use of mechanical balancing devices and includes a main support body (6), an arm (8) and a bracket (10) which can be adapted to function alone or in combination with a second support apparatus document holder (4). The viewing side (730) of document holder (4) can position a mounted document or document holder in rotation and inclination about three axes of rotation. The viewing side (730) is fitted with rotatable first and second sections (904, 906). The rotatable sections provide for displacing the spring clip (936) and/or the support ledge (938) from the viewing side (730) to provide an unobstructed planar surface to allow a document holder engaging means (932) to cooperate in the mounting and positioning of a modified document holder (869).
