ABSTRACT:
A reading rable utilizes a pair of curved leg members to which is affixed a pair of upstanding posts. The posts are provided with an elongated notch having a plurality of circularly shaped openings therein. A flat sheet is utilized having a pair of outwardly extending shafts disposed residing in selected openings in the upright post. A locking nut-like apparatus is threadingly engaged with outwardly extending shafts so as to position the sheet at preferential angular locations relative to the longitudinal axis of the upstanding posts. The sheet is provided with a pair of adjustable arm mechanisms which are selectively positioned at locations along an upper marginal edge of the sheet and locked thereto by a telescopingly locking device utilizing a locking screw therefor. The adjustable arm mechanisms are provided with a pair of racks threadingly engaged with adjusting gears which dispose the racks along lines perpendicular to the plane of the sheet. Each rack is provided with a book holding arm extending perpendicularly from the longitudinal axis of the rack. In use, a book is rested upon the sheet and an upstanding bar affixed to the sheet having the pages thereof secured by the arm clampingly engaging the opened pages of the book.
