PERSONAL CONTROL APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR SHARING INFORMATION IN A COLLABORATIVE WORKSPACE
A conferencing assembly for sharing content from source devices includes a common display screen, a switcher controlling input to the screen, and a table assembly with a tabletop opening. A control cable assembly has a first end linked to the switcher, a second ends having a plug connectable to a source device communication port, and a first control cable located therebetween. A take up assembly including a first weight is disposed below the opening. The control cable assembly links to the first weight to apply a force tending to pull the second end of the control cable assembly toward the opening. A first user interface including a control button useable to send a signal to the switcher causing it to provide first content from a source device connected to the control cable assembly to the screen is integrated into the table assembly and is associated with the control cable assembly.
CONVERTIBLE BREAKFAST STATION
A convertible table assembly has an item display configuration in which items can be presented for purchasers/guests. The convertible table assembly includes a tabletop assembly and one or more demountable bins for presenting food or other items for purchase, use, and/or consumption by consumers and/or guests. The convertible table assembly also has a table configuration in which the bins are not mounted and one or more power outlets and/or charging and/or communication ports are exposed for connection to electronic devices.
Interactive Restaurant Table Assembly
An interactive restaurant table assembly includes a table that is positionable in a restaurant. A plurality of proximity sensors is provided and each of the proximity sensors is coupled to the table. Each of the proximity sensors is turned on when a patron moves within a trigger distance of the proximity sensors. A plurality of touch screens is each of the touch screens is coupled to the table. Each of the touch screens displays menu of the restaurant thereby facilitating the patron to order from the menu. A transceiver is coupled to the table and the transceiver is in communication with each of the touch screens for receiving the patron's order from each of the touch screens. The transceiver is in wireless communication with a central computer system of the restaurant thereby facilitating restaurant employees to receive the patron's order.

ACTUATED HEIGHT ADJUSTABLE OPTICAL TABLE
Disclosed is an actuated, height adjustable optical table or workstation for use in microscopy, optical research laboratories and similar environments. The height adjustable design includes fixed and moving parts which combine to create a rigid, height adjustable table structure on which to mount an optical breadboard or similar platforms via optional rigid, passive or active vibration isolation mounts. The height adjustment is performed by multiple compact actuators with associated control hardware and software, and allows the user or an application system to perform activities with the table at any heights.

Table cover system with affixed garbage bag
A table cover system with an affixed garbage bag on one end. The table cover can be unrolled onto a table top with the garbage bag unrolled on one end of the cover. This allows for rubbish to be easily and quickly disposed of from the top of the table. The table cover can also be rolled over all remaining rubbish and garbage and stuffed into the garbage bag for easy disposal. The top face of the table cover can include printed elements, such as interactive games, team logos, or icons or characters from popular movies and television. Other options would include menus, schedules, or meeting information which may be printed directly to the table cover or attached after the cover is placed.

Breast Pumping System
A breast pumping assembly for a forward-leaning chair is provided. The assembly allows for a breast pumping mother to be optimally positioned and comfortable while pumping breast milk, leading to quicker and more effective pumping. The breast pumping assembly and the chair are adjustable to adapt for different sized mothers and changing body size and shape as pumping progresses.
Table for mitigating infectious disease
Tables for mitigating infectious disease spread are disclosed having at least two seating areas that are configured to minimize the transfer of aerosolized droplets among the seating areas. Between each seating area are a series of impermeable barriersat least one hanging impermeable barrier that projects downwards towards a top surface of a table and at least one rising impermeable barrier that projects upwards away from a top surface of a table. The impermeable barriers are disposed to overlap one another along a line of sight between seating areas such that a bottom edge of the hanging impermeable barrier is at a height above the top edge of the rising impermeable barrier. Vacuum mechanisms can be positioned above the hanging impermeable barriers and below the rising impermeable barriers to create airstreams along the impermeable barriers that guide airborne particulate matter blocked by an impermeable barrier into a vacuum mechanism.
