Patent ID: 6905104

Claim:
A patient or visitor sign-in device with privacy screen comprising: a generally rectangular flat board defining a writing surface sized to supportively receive a sign-in sheet bearing sequential line indicia printed thereon providing each patent or visitor with a separate line for sign-in purposes; a paper clamp pivotally connected at one end of said board for clamping the sign-in sheet against the writing surface; an elongated spool of substantially opaque flexible sheet material; said paper clamp including a housing extending transversely across said board for storing therewithin and selectively withdrawing therefrom a portion of said opaque material from said spool to define the privacy screen; an elongated header bar spaced from said housing and extending transversely across, and movably attached to a side margin of, said board; said header bar being spaced sufficiently from said writing surface to allow the sign-in sheet to be slid therebetween; an exposed end margin of said opaque material being attached to said header bar whereby movement of said header bar along the length of said board causes said opaque material to be withdrawn from said spool to cover and conceal a selected portion of the sign-in sheet which includes the names and/or signatures of previously signed-in patients or visitors.
