A portable supporting and stabilizing structure is disclosed that is particularly well suited for securely maintaining a preselected orientation of a utility surface, such as, for example, a work surface, an equipment mounting surface, or a food tray by, and adjacent to, the thighs of a seated user
A portable supporting and stabilizing structure is disclosed that is particularly well suited for securely maintaining a preselected orientation of a utility surface, such as, for example, a work surface, an equipment mounting surface, or a food tray by, and adjacent to, the thighs of a seated user of the utility surface. The structure includes a supporting section for support of the utility surface and a stabilizing section connected with the supporting section and receivable adjacent to the thighs of a user of the structure so that, when force is exerted by the user\s thighs against the stabilizing section of the structure, changes in orientation of the surface are resisted thus securely maintaining the position of the utility surface during use thereof. Structures are disclosed which are collapsible and which are selectively configurable for employing inward or outward exertion of the thighs by the user against the stabilizing section of the structure to stabilize the utility surface.

A supporting and stabilizing structure for securely maintaining a preselected orientation of a utilization area adjacent to the left and right legs of a user of the utilization area, the user\s legs each having an inner thigh region, said supporting and stabilizing structure comprising: support mean
A supporting and stabilizing structure for securely maintaining a preselected orientation of a utilization area adjacent to the left and right legs of a user of the utilization area, the user\s legs each having an inner thigh region, said supporting and stabilizing structure comprising: support means for supporting a utility surface located at said utilization area, said support means including a forward edge and a rearward edge and left and right lateral edges extending between said forward and rearward edges, said left and right edges being adjacent to different ones of the left and right legs of a user when said preselected orientation of said utilization area is maintained; a first stabilizing wall having an upper part and first and second sides and being connected to said forward edge of said support means so that said upper part of said first stabilizing wall extends substantially entirely between said left and right edges of said support means, said first and second sides of said first stabilizing wall each including a contoured portion, said contoured portions being substantially unyielding in directions toward and away from each other, each of said contoured portions having a lower contour section, a central contour section and an upper contour section between said central contour section and said upper part of said first stabilizing wall, said lower contour sections extending from said central contour sections in directions having a component away from each other; a second stabilizing wall having an upper part and first and second sides and being connected with said rearward edge of said support means so that said upper part of said second stabilizing wall extends substantially entirely between said left and right edges of said support means, said first and second sides of said second stabilizing wall each including a contoured portion that includes a lower contour section, a central contour section and an upper contour section between said central contour section and said upper part of said second stabilizing wall, said lower contour sections thereof extending from said central contour sections thereof in directions having a component away from each other, said first and second stabilizing walls being connected with said support means so that a constant substantially perpendicular orientation relative to said utility surface, and a substantially parallel orientation relative to each other, is maintained.
