Abstract

A mount that attaches a tablet to a post of a forklift so as to allow a user to use the tablet from either inside of the forklift or outside of the forklift or to stow the tablet. The mount includes a clamp, an arm, and a mounting case. The clamp attaches to the post of the forklift. The arm pivotally extends from the clamp so as to allow the user to stow the tablet. The mounting case receives the tablet and pivotally extends from the arm so as to allow the user to use the tablet from either the inside of the forklift or the outside of the forklift. Thus, the tablet is positionable in three different positions, namely, for being stowed, for being used from inside of the forklift, and for being used from outside of the forklift.
