Abstract

A single or multilevel table-like organizer designed to hold and charge cell phones and other common electronic devices such as tablets, which is also meant to provide a central point location in which a person can place the personal items that they frequently bring with them when they leave the home. The levels are referred to as decks because one version has sloping angled front sides to facilitate easy and comfortable smooth rounded surfaces for placement and retrieval as well as shallow vertical sides and full backboards to keep items securely in place on the decks. Wood columns hold up the fronts of the decks. The decks are made from plywood covered with a rubbery shelf liner, and the forward, side, and backboards are all made with wood, though other materials could be used. Additionally, there is a shelf below the decks for other items such as a laptop, which could be placed and charged there especially as there is also a built-in outlet just above this shelf mounted to a cross brace structure at the back. Coat hooks are an option on the sides of the deck/s to hang items from such as coats, hats, and purses. There are also small metal hooks that can be mounted to the lower outlet cross brace structure to hang extra keys or jewelry from. Additionally, 120-volt AC outlets with USB charging ports are built into the centers of the backboards, though strictly USB charging ports could be used instead. The USB ports have the highest available amperage capability to charge with, including the common type A port and the newer type C ports. Furthermore, these device charging organizers have the capability to mount a smart TV or a monitor for viewing on an extended and braced upper backboard above the upper deck. Another option can place a light fixture in place of the TV, and there are also additional smaller lights possible on the unit.The two alternative organizer versions confer certain advantages. The dual level organizer depicted with the smaller upper deck centered over a larger lower deck can offer ergonomic access for multiple people from all directions at once and could be highly desirable in a party situation. Furthermore, the dual level organizer with the trapezoid shaped upper deck provides easier access to the outlets and the suspended charging cords as well as deck platforms with more accessibility and alternative ergonomics. The decks are wider though, so the width of the unit requires more space.With this combination of features, these multi-deck device organizers provide a highly convenient and practical location in a home, and some business settings, to include hotel rooms, to place one's personal small items, to include the charging of electronic devices, as well as the potential operation of these devices in coordination with a smart TV or a computer.
