Patent
CA 2714453
The invention provides an improved book rest. The book rest includes a base and a tablet pivotably mounted at one end. A cam body having a contoured shape is positioned in use between the base and the tablet, the cam body being rotatable relative to one of the tablet and the base about a rotation axis and having an engagement surface which varies in distance from the rotation axis such that said rotation, in use, causes the engagement surface to, in combination with gravity, cause said pivotal movement of the tablet relative to the base. In certain embodiments, the invention provides an improved book rest comprising a simple page turning device. In some embodiments, a bracket mounted at the top end of the tablet having a pivotably mounted shaft with a sliding shuttle is used to turn pages. The shaft can be rotated about a normal axis to the bracket. The shuttle body having a body and a resilient end extending therefrom can be operatively positioned on the page and slide along the shaft to lift a page for turning.
