Aspects of dynamic workstation apparatus, methods, and systems are disclosed. One aspect disclosed herein is an apparatus comprising a frame; an equipment support that is operable with the frame to position a piece of exercise equipment at a plurality of different equipment support heights relative to the frame; a work surface that is attachable to the frame and selectively positionable at a plurality of different work surface heights relative to the frame, the plurality of different work surface heights including at least a standing height and a seated height; and an actuator that is attachable to and operable with the frame to move the work surface within a range of movement including the plurality of different work surface heights while maintaining an orientation of the work surface relative to the frame.

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.

A height-adjustable desk is disclosed. Exemplary implementations may include a work surface, a left-side support structure, a right-side support structure, a core body, and a working body that provides the work surface. The core body may include lifting mechanisms such that the work surface of the desk may be positioned for a person in a standing and/or sitting position. The working body may include a control interface configured to be manually engaged by the user, to control lifting and/or lowering of the work surface of the desk.

A desk with support structures configured to attach modular attachments is disclosed. Exemplary implementations may include a work surface, a left-side support structure, a right-side support structure, a core body, a working body that provides the work surface, one or more modular attachments, one or more mounting brackets, and/or other components. The one or more modular attachments can be mechanically coupled to and supported by either support structure.

A height adjustment system includes a first controller to control a first drive assembly of an adjustable desk frame and a second controller to control a second drive assembly of an adjustable monitor mount. The first controller is communicatively coupled to the second controller to synchronize activation of the first controller and the second controller such that an adjustment of a height of the desk frame causes a corresponding adjustment of a viewing height of the monitor mount and an adjustment of the viewing height of the monitor mount causes a corresponding adjustment of the height of the desk.

A workstation including a height-adjustable work surface is described. The workstation includes a frame, and the work surface is configured to translate relative to the frame to vary a height of the work surface. A lift assembly configured to assist translation of the work surface relative to the frame. The lift assembly includes a moveable component and translation of the moveable component results in a translation of the work surface relative to the frame. A translation sensor is coupled to one of the frame or the movable component, and it is configured to measure translation of the moveable component relative to the frame. A control circuit is in communication with the translation sensor to determine an amount of translation of the work surface relative to the frame.

Electrical operating unit comprising a first and a second part, where the two parts can be mutually adjusted. The Operating unit (1) comprises a first part constructed as a housing (2), which contains the electric equipment with at least one electric switch and a second part constructed as a mounting unit (3) for the first part. The two parts are interconnected about a shaft (17), or pivot, so they can rotate mutually. When the operating unit is mounted the housing (2) will assume a first position, an initial position. By pressing the housing (2) it rotates about the shaft (17) and is brought into a second position, an activation position, where the switch(es) is/are activated in that they are pressed against the second part (3). With this embodiment of the operating unit the piece of furniture can be adjusted in either direction by pressing the housing (2). The housing (2), besides from functioning as a switch, can also be equipped with other switches and displays.

The present invention provides a collision prevention control system based on an electric lifting table and a collision prevention method thereof. The collision prevention control system includes a lifting table, an electronic lifting table control box disposed on the lifting table, and a single-chip microcomputer disposed in the electric lifting table control box. The electric lifting table control box is internally provided with an acceleration and gyroscope chip, the acceleration and gyroscope chip performing synchronous motion with the lifting table, the acceleration and gyroscope chip being in information interaction with the single-chip microcomputer, and motion control on the lifting table being performed through the single-chip microcomputer. The present invention has the advantageous effects as follows: the system has higher sensitivity and more reliable operation, and senses a slight angular change or an acceleration change when the lifting table encounters resistance.

A drive system (2) for moving a height adjustable tabletop (3) of a table (1) comprises a drive device (4) configured to the move the tabletop (3), a drive control device (5) configured to control the drive device (4), an acceleration sensor (6), and an evaluation unit (7). The acceleration sensor (6) is configured to synchronously follow a motion of the tabletop (3), to detect an acceleration of the sensor motion, and to transmit an acceleration signal corresponding to the sensor motion to the evaluation unit (7). The evaluation unit (7) is configured to evaluate the acceleration signal of the acceleration sensor, to determine a presence of a collision by means of acceleration values exceeding a threshold, and to output a collision signal to the drive control device (5) when the presence of a collision is determined.

A workstation and furniture combination is provided. The combination is enabled with height adjustability of a top surface and via a concealed power source that also provides concealed charging of electrical devices. Moreover, a dropdown drawer coupled below the display surface of the furniture affords a worksurface for the electrical device when the present invention is in the workstation mode.
