GRAVITY ASSISTED SWINGDOWN SUPPORT FOR KEYBOARDS OR THE LIKE Abstract of the Disclosure A leg assembly for a keyboard allows the keyboard to be placed at alternate working angles. The leg assembly comprises a single leg extending substantially for the length of the keyboard, the leg having thereon a rib which acts as a foot when the leg is in a retracted position and which supports a back edge of the keyboard when the leg is in a deployed position. The leg is pivotally mounted to the keyboard wherein the leg is movable between two stable positions, a first position being the retracted position, the second position being the deployed position which is beyond a quiescent position of the leg. The leg is moved from the retracted position to the deployed position solely by means of gravity and rotational inertia which cause the leg to pass from the retracted position, beyond the quiescent position and into the deployed position when the rear of the keyboard is lifted.
