ABSTRACT:
The present teachings describe an adjustable keyboard stand comprising a keyboard platform, which receives a keyboard instrument, and a mounting assembly which mounts to a piece of furniture, such as a computer table or desk. The mounting assembly includes a mounting component having two sidewalls and a rear wall joined together so as to define a recess that extends in a first direction. The adjustable keyboard stand may further comprise a support member having a first and a second end, wherein the first end of the support member is attached to the keyboard platform, and wherein the second end of the support member is positioned within the recess in the mounting component so as to be slidably and pivotally movable therein. In one aspect, the weight of the support member and the keyboard platform pivots the second end of the support member in a first direction within the recess such that the second end of the support member engages with the rear wall of the recess to maintain the support member at a first vertical location. The vertical location of the support member can be changed by exerting force on the keyboard platform that induces the support member to pivot in a second direction so as to disengage the second end of the support member from the rear wall of the recess to thereby permit free sliding motion of the second end of the support member in the recess.
