PLATFORM WITH ADJUSTABLE HEIGHT
An adjustable platform having an upper platform surface, at least two leg assemblies supporting the upper platform surface, and a drive mechanism that is configured to extend or retract the leg assemblies between a first position, in which each leg assembly is retracted to lower the platform toward ground, and a second position, in which each leg assembly is extended to raise the platform away from the ground. The drive mechanism includes a single motor that is drivingly coupled to each of the at least two leg assemblies, in which the drive mechanism is configured to simultaneously extend or retract both of the at least two leg assemblies between the first position and second position to thereby lower or raise the upper platform surface relative to the ground.
Table
The present disclosure relates to a table top, a leg and a worktable comprising a table top and legs. The table top has a honeycomb structure which extends along a main extension plane of the table top, with one or more areas being cut out from the honeycomb structure in accordance with a predetermined layout for receiving electrical and/or mechanical components. The leg has one or more decorative elements each having an areal main extension, the one or more decorative elements extending along their areal main dimensions over at least part of the surface of the leg and being fixed to the leg. Further, a worktable having such a table top and such a leg is described. A system comprising a worktable with a table top and legs of this type as well as a packaging for packing the worktable is also described.
Load compensator for height adjustable table
A table assembly comprising a telescoping leg assembly having upper and lower ends and forming an internal passageway and further including a plurality of leg members, at least a first leg member is adapted to slide telescopically with respect to at least a second of the leg members along a substantially vertical extension axis between an extended position and a retracted position, a spring that generates a variable spring force, the spring having first and second ends, aligned substantially parallel to the vertical extension axis and located within the internal passageway, a rotatable cam member supported by the leg assembly and operatively linked with the spring, the cam member and spring applying a force tending to drive the leg assembly into the extended position, a worksurface mounted to the upper end of the leg assembly and a lock adapted to prevent leg members from sliding telescopically with respect to one another when engaged.
Liftable table foot frame that is easily assembled
A liftable table foot frame (1) that is easily assembled includes a horizontal frame body (10), a post (20), a side wing (30) and a linking mechanism (40). The horizontal frame body (10) includes a horizontal rod (11). One end of the post (20) pivotally connects to the horizontal rod (11). The side wing (30) includes a plate body (31) and inserting blocks (32) connected to the plate body (31). The inserting blocks (32) separately couple with an end of the horizontal rod (11). The linking mechanism (40) connects the post (20) and the side wing (30). When the post (20) is turned out relative to the horizontal rod (11), the inserting blocks (32) are driven toward the horizontal rod (11) through the linking mechanism (40) to tense and position. Thus, easiness and convenience of assembling can be increased.
PIECE OF FURNITURE, A METHOD OF CALIBRATING AN ACTUATOR AND A METHOD OF ADJUSTING A COMPONENT OF A PIECE OF FURNITURE
An electrically adjustable piece of furniture comprises a first and at least one second actuator for adjusting a component of the piece of furniture and a controller for controlling the first and at least one second actuator. The actuators each have a first element and a second element which are displaceable relative to each other, and a sensor attached to the first element and adapted to measure a distance between the first and second elements. The distance measurement is based on a time-of-flight measurement of a wave. The controller is arranged to determine an absolute position of each actuator from the respectively measured distance.
Pulley assemblies for use in modular utility systems
A counterbalanced vertical track assembly which may be configured with three types of pulley support assemblies are herein disclosed. The first type of pulley support assembly has a pair of opposed pulley modules having an elongate structural element interposed the two pulley modules which are attached to end plates at both ends of the elongate structural element. The second type of pulley support assembly has a pair of opposed pulley modules which include male end connectors for demountable engagement of the pulley modules with another module of the system with female ends. The third type of pulley support assembly has a pair of opposed pulley modules wherein the modules' pulley brackets are repositionable to varying angular orientations by alternating screw mount positions selected on mount components at opposite ends of an elongate structural element.
TOP PANEL ELEVATING-TYPE DESK
A top panel elevating-type desk (1) includes a top panel (10) having an upper surface (10a) serving as a working surface, a leg body (20) having an elevating mechanism unit (23) configured to move the top panel (10) in a vertical direction (Z) and supporting the top panel (10), and an operating unit (30) configured to drive the elevating mechanism unit (23), the operating unit (30) has an operating member (31) disposed below the top panel (10), a support section (49) configured to movably support the operating member (31) in the vertical direction (Z), and a cover member (32) configured to cover the operating member (31), and a lower end portion of the cover member (32) is disposed at the same position as or below a lower end portion of the operating member (31) in the vertical direction (Z).
DUAL-COLUMN OFFICE TABLE
A dual-column office table includes two oppositely disposed stationary upright columns with a connecting rod transversely connected therebetween, two guiding columns separately disposed in the two stationary upright columns, at least one steel ball sleeve fitted on either guiding column, two driving units separately disposed in the two guiding columns, and a table top to which a top portion of each guiding column is fixedly connected. A bottom end of each guiding column is provided with a limiting structure protruding outward. A bottom end of the each driving unit is fixed to a respective table base provided at bottom portion of each stationary upright column. The table top has a bottom surface fixedly connected with a fixing seat and is provided with a lifting control switch, the lifting control switch being connected with the driving units and having an end disposed in the fixing seat.
LENGTH-ADJUSTABLE COLUMN AND MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREOF, PIECE OF FURNITURE
Provided is a length-adjustable column with a standpipe having a longitudinal axis, a length-adjustment device arranged in the standpipe with a portion displaceably-mounted along the longitudinal axis with respect to the standpipe and an anti-rotation locking device for locking the portion against a rotation around the longitudinal axis relative to the standpipe. The anti-rotation locking device includes an inner element, which is fastened to an outer surface of the portion, and an outer element, which is fastened to an inner surface of the standpipe. The inner element cooperates with positive locking with the outer element against a rotation around the longitudinal axis, and is displaceably guided along the longitudinal axis by the outer element. The inner element is connected with the portion through a substance-to-substance connecting layer.
LIFTABLE TABLE FOOT FRAME THAT IS EASILY ASSEMBLED
A liftable table foot frame (1) that is easily assembled includes a horizontal frame body (10), a post (20), a side wing (30) and a linking mechanism (40). The horizontal frame body (10) includes a horizontal rod (11). One end of the post (20) pivotally connects to the horizontal rod (11). The side wing (30) includes a plate body (31) and inserting blocks (32) connected to the plate body (31). The inserting blocks (32) separately couple with an end of the horizontal rod (11). The linking mechanism (40) connects the post (20) and the side wing (30). When the post (20) is turned out relative to the horizontal rod (11), the inserting blocks (32) are driven toward the horizontal rod (11) through the linking mechanism (40) to tense and position. Thus, easiness and convenience of assembling can be increased.
