ABSTRACT:
The purpose of this invention is a foldable music stand comprising a lectern or the like, which can be set in an inclined position, a vertical shaft and a folding leg support member. The lectern consists of a backplate and a shelf. The backplate is rotatably connected by a pivot means to the vertical shaft. The shelf of the lectern has a cross section in the shape of L and it is hinged to the lower edge of the backplate and attached by a lever into the vertical shaft. The lectern being in the inclined position or the operational position, a score is placed to rest against the backplate on the shelf. The leg support member is formed in a cross leg having a solid part and a moving part which can be moved in respect of this. The solid part is connected to the vertical shaft in the direction of the lectern. In the operational position the moving part is folded vertically in respect of the solid part. The shelf and the backplate of the lectern are foldable against each other into an upright position or a transport position, into which direction and same plane of the lectern the moving part of the cross leg is folding, the whole lectern thus being in its transport position and forming a platelike flat object.
