A desktop workspace that adjusts vertically includes a work surface platform, a base configured to sit on an existing platform, such as a desk, a height adjustable mechanism including at least one set of arms that connect at a pivot point(s) creating a scissoring motion to raise and lower the said work surface platform to various heights. A locking and unlocking mechanism may connect to the height adjustable mechanism. In some cases, the apparatus includes an adjustable mechanism to support items such as a keyboard. In some cases, the apparatus includes elements to raise items such as a monitor to an additional height.

A keyboard and keyboard and peripheral position system, which may be used with adjustable-height desks.

An adjustable desk platform can include: an upper platform defining a substantially planar work surface; a base located beneath the upper platform, the base defining a bottom surface without legs that is adapted to sit on an existing desk; first and second sets of arms coupling the upper platform to the base, wherein the first and second sets of arms are adapted for movement of the upper platform substantially in parallel with the base between a fully raised position and a fully lowered position; and a user-operable locking mechanism associated with the upper platform, the locking mechanism adapted to releasably lock the upper platform in the fully raised position, and in at least one intermediate position between the fully raised position and the fully lowered position. Other features and embodiments are discussed.

An electrically-lifted computer desk and office desk thereof, wherein the computer desk comprises a bottom plate, a driving mechanism, an intermediate support member, a first side-support member, a second side-support member and a face plate, wherein the driving mechanism is fixedly disposed on the bottom plate; the face plate is fixedly disposed on the first side-support member and the second side-support member; and the driving mechanism drives the face plate to rise or fold via the intermediate support member, the first side-support member and the second side-support member.

A height adjustable, standing desk suitable for use on conventional desks is presented. The standing desk of the present invention utilizes a scissor lift mechanism to raise and lower the desktop surface. The standing desk is presented in two embodiments, one of which uses a motor drive assembly to raise and lower the desktop and one of which uses is manually raised and lowered and features a biasing spring and height locking arrangement. Slide out and clip on keyboard assemblies are also presented.
