Patent ID: 8800455

Claim:
A case, comprising: a first frame member and a second frame member, the first and second frame members being spaced apart from each other; a carrier comprising a front edge, a back edge, a first side, a second side, a top surface and a bottom surface, the first side being proximate to the first frame member and the second side being proximate to the second frame member, the carrier being pivotally coupled to the first and second frame sides along a first axis of rotation and rotatable in a first direction with respect to the first axis of rotation between a first substantially vertical position and a second generally horizontal position and rotatable in a second direction with respect to the first axis of rotation between the second generally horizontal position and the first substantially vertical position, the carrier further comprising a catch member located on the bottom surface proximate to the back edge of the carrier between the first and second frame sides; a console attached to the top surface of the carrier by the bracket mechanism, the console and the carrier being substantially balanced with respect to the first axis of rotation, a bottom surface of the console remaining substantially parallel to the top surface of the carrier as the carrier rotates with respect to the first axis of rotation between the first substantially vertical position and the second generally horizontal position; and a releasable latch member capable of releasably engaging the catch member when the carrier is in the second position.
