Abstract
In some embodiments, a computer peripheral mounting device for connecting a peripheral device to a support, wherein the support defines a thickness, comprises a fixed tubing extending in a longitudinal direction; a clamp coupled to a first end of the fixed tubing; an adjustment mechanism positioned at a second end of the fixed tubing, opposite the first end, and a shaft positioned within the fixed tubing and coupled between the adjustment mechanism and the clamp, wherein the adjustment mechanism is configured to rotate around the longitudinal direction relative to the fixed tubing in order to rotate the shaft within the fixed tubing and without the adjustment mechanism nor the shaft translating along the longitudinal direction relative to the fixed tubing, and wherein rotation of the shaft is configured to cause the distance between the first surface and the second surface to change.
