An automatic height adjustment system includes an adjustable desk frame, a first drive assembly operable to control a height of the adjustable desk frame, an adjustable monitor mount, a second drive assembly operable to control a viewing height of the adjustable monitor mount, a transceiver, and a first controller communicatively coupled to the first drive assembly and to the transceiver. The first controller is configured to receive, via the transceiver, a first communication based on the detection of a position of a user from a computing device and to transmit, via the transceiver, a second communication to the first drive assembly to control the height of the adjustable desk frame and movement of the adjustable desk frame and the adjustable monitor mount are synchronized such that an adjustment of the height of the adjustable desk frame causes a corresponding adjustment of the viewing height of the adjustable monitor mount.

A method of registering users in the ambient area of a workstation includes establishing a wireless communication link between an electronic workspace module positioned at a workstation and a mobile device and registering the entry of the mobile device into the ambient area of the workspace module by evaluating the signal characteristics of the communication link between the workspace module and the mobile device.

Embodiments of a system for reducing injury from pinch zones in adjustable-height work surface assemblies are shown, the system including a desk surface; one or more adjustable-height legs, a controller for the adjustable-height legs; a Hall-effect sensor providing a signal to the system corresponding to a current draw of a motor in the adjustable height leg and wherein the system disables the motor if the current draw of the motor exceeds a fixed set point; and a proximity detection sensor being a strip of conducting material disposed adjacent to a perimeter of the desk surface and in electrical connection with an LC tank circuit, wherein the LC tank circuit is configured to exhibit a change in state when an object is in close proximity to the strip of conducting material and wherein the system disables the motor when the LC tank circuit exhibits the change in state.

A geologic core inspection table includes at least two legs, each including an extending portion for increasing the effective length of each leg, the extending portion at least partially concentrically disposed within or about the leg from which it extends; and a tabletop disposed above and coupled to the legs. The tabletop includes a top surface for receiving a core sample tray. At least one leg may be extended to a different height than at least one other leg.

A standing desk system, method, and device. A user is detected proximate a standing desk. A position and orientation of the user are determined. Time periods associated with the position and the orientation are detected.

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.

The invention relates to a pick-up device with a height-adjustable pick-up unit and at least one gas pressure spring designed to compensate for forces acting on the holding unit.

The present disclosure relates to the field of office furniture, and more particularly to an electric lift table control system and method that realize a resistance back-off. The system comprises a controller, a table (1) and a lifting column (2) for driving the table to move vertically, the lifting column (2) is connected with the controller signal, and further comprises at least one arranged under the table (1) a safety grating (3) for detecting obstacles, each set of safety gratings comprising a transmitting end assembly and a receiving end assembly, and a gap is provided between the safety grating (3) and the lower surface of the table (1), and said The safety light barrier (3) is connected to the controller signal. This will control the lifting column to stop working before encountering obstacles.

A method for recognition of an occupancy situation of a furniture comprising monitoring a sensor signal which corresponds to a force effect on the furniture when the furniture is occupied and releasing the furniture and changing the state of the occupancy situation from Occupied to Released when the force effect is below a threshold during an entire predetermined period.

The present invention relates to a height-adjustable table (1) which can assist and motivate the user to use the height-adjustable table in a manner which increases health and well-being.
