Height-adjustable workstation
An intelligent height-adjustable workstation includes a desktop and a seat cushion. The bottom of the desktop is supported by legs. Each of the legs is mounted with an electrical putter therein. The electrical putter is screw-fixed with the four corners of the bottom surface of the desktop. The underside of the desktop is mounted with an electrical putter control box. The electrical putter control box is mounted with a signal receiver therein. The bottom edge of the desktop is mounted with an electrical putter control panel connected to an external power supply. The seat cushion is mounted with a gravity sensor, a fiber optic sensor, a control box and a vibrator therein. The control box is mounted with a wireless signal generator and a lithium battery therein. The side of the seat cushion is mounted with a control panel. This improves work efficiency, reduces occurrence of occupational disease, alleviates sufferings.
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.
USER INTERFACE FOR HEIGHT ADJUSTABLE TABLES
A user interface for a height adjustable table includes a memory for storing protocol information for a number of communication protocols, and an electronic processor configured to generate instructions for a controller of the height adjustable table, receive the protocol information from the memory, and generate a first instruction for the control box based one of the communication protocols included in the protocol information, and monitor for a first response from the controller. The electronic processor is further configured to determine whether the first response is an expected response based on the first instruction, generate a second instruction for the controller in response to the first response not being the expected response, and monitor for a second response from the controller. The electronic processor also determines whether the second response is the expected response and continues issuing subsequent instructions based on the second response not being the expected response.
Automatic Elevation-Adjusting System
An automatic elevation-adjusting system includes an elevating unit, a control panel, a setting module, a calculating module and a central control module. The control panel includes a power icon, a direction icon unit, a setting icon, and a mode icon unit. The setting icon is operable to actuate the setting module to allow a user to press the direction icon unit and the power icon to enter data including a name, height, sex and age. The calculating module calculates average elevations for playing games, writing, reading and standing based on the user's sex and age, a pre-set specification of the table and an average height corresponding to the user's sex and age. The central control module actuates the elevating unit to move a table to the average elevation for playing games, writing, reading or standing when the game, writing, reading or standing icon of the mode icon unit is pressed.
Electrically adjustable table system and method for producing an electrically adjustable table system
An electrically adjustable table system includes a table, at least one electric drive for adjusting the table, a voltage supply, a control and a bus system. The at least one drive, the voltage supply and the control are connected to the bus system. The bus system comprises multiple multiwire cable sections, which are electrically connected to one another via insulation displacement connectors.
Systems and methods for controlling an interactive workstation based on biometric input
Systems and methods are disclosed for moving a tabletop of a workstation based on biometric input associated with a user, the method being performed by a controller that is configured to send control signals to actuators to move the tabletop. One method includes: accessing a user profile associated with a user device; determining parameters for moving the tabletop, based on the user profile, for eliciting desired biometric inputs from the workstation user at one or more times during the movement of the tabletop; and repeating one or more iterations of: moving the tabletop based on the parameters, by sending control signals to the actuators of the tabletop; receiving, into a data storage device, actual biometric inputs from the workstation user; comparing the received actual biometric inputs with the desired biometric inputs; and if the parameters do not elicit the desired biometric inputs, adjusting the parameters.
