Book holding device

Book holding device description/claims

This invention relates to book holding devices, more particularly, a book holding device that permits a user to easily maintain books of various sizes in an open position while permitting a user to view the desired pages.

When one is reading a book in order to perform a certain task, such as cooking or typing, it is often desired that the book be opened to and maintained on a certain page without the person having to manually hold open the book. However, oftentimes the reader is using his or her hands to simultaneously perform the task while reading, thus making it difficult to perform the task while reading a book.

Even if a person need not perform a particular task while reading a book, it is often difficult for a person to hold open a book due to physical limitations, such as arthritis, lack of dexterity or lack of strength. In addition, even a person without a physical disability, finds it uncomfortable to hold open a book for an extended period of time, especially while reading in bed, on the beach, etc.

Although there currently exist book holding aids that maintain a book in an open position, many easily break during use as they are not able to withstand books having greater thicknesses due to the volume of pages. In addition, many book holding aids are difficult to use as one must continuously re-position the holding arms of the book holding aid as they tend to block portions of the text. Moreover, many book holding aids do not permit a person to quickly and easily turn the pages of the book without damaging the pages of the book.

Thus, there exists the need for a book holding device that is easy to use and maintains a book in an open position while permitting the user to read the book.
