Abstract

A keyboard support tray arrangement includes both a main support tray for supporting a computer keyboard and an auxiliary support pad for supporting a user's palm or wrist. The auxiliary pad is removably and height adjustably positionable adjacent the front of the main keyboard tray to provide increased convenience and flexibility of use. The auxiliary support pad is completely separable from the main keyboard tray. A multi-height connecting and actuating structure enables the auxiliary pad to be positioned relative to the main keyboard tray at one of a plurality of heights by manual actuation of a single lever which is swingable through only a small angular extent.
