Abstract Arm and hand rest for a keyboard, such as a stenographers' machine keyboards or computer keyboard, including a padded foamed longitudinal rectangular keyboard member with rounded ends, the underside of the rectangular member including flanges for pivotable mounting on two configured supports. The configured supports mount to a base, the base secures to a screw housing which includes a screw and a knob height adjustment. A hole extends upwardly through the screw housing and the base for accommodating the upper section of a tripod which slides vertically through the hole. The arm and hand rest can also be attached for three dimensional movement about a computer keyboard. The arm and hand rest is intended for preventing carpal tunnel syndrome and other repetitive strain injuries.
Arm and hand rest comprising: a. padded foam means mounted on a longitudinal rectangular housing: and, b. opposing mirror image configured supports for supporting said longitudinal housing at first ends at the supports and the second end of the supports being mounted to a base, the base being mounted for rotational movement through a hole therein and about a post of a keyboard stand, providing for three dimensional movement of the arm rest relative to a keyboard mounted on the stand.
