Work station having a multi-purpose work surface
A work station including a base includes a work surface pivotally mounted to the base so as to be configured to pivot between a first position and a second position. The work surface is configured to cover a protected member when in a first position and the work surface is configured to uncover the protected member when moved into a second position. The base is configured to support the work surface on a floor surface. A height of the work surface can be adjusted to accommodate the ergonomic needs of different users.
HEIGHT ADJUSTABLE DESK
A height adjustable desk includes a worksurface, a first leg and a second leg connected to the worksurface. The first leg is provided with a first motor to drive a first lifting apparatus for telescoping the first leg, while the second leg is provided with a second motor to drive a second lifting apparatus for telescoping the second leg. Each of the first motor and the second motor is provided with a magnetic device and two sensors. The magnetic device has several N-pole sections and S-pole sections, and the sensor detect a change of a magnetic field when the motor is turning. A control unit receives the signals of the sensor, and changes a speed of at least one of the motors until the signals are synchronous again when the control unit found that the signals are not synchronous.
ADJUSTABLE SUPPORT STRUCTURE
An adjustable support structure having a telescoping assembly that is movable by a drive mechanism between a collapsed position and an extended position. The telescoping assembly may include a latching mechanism that cooperates with one or more telescopic support members to permit or restrict movement of one or more support members relative to each other, which may depend on the position of the support members as the telescoping assembly is collapsed or extended. The drive mechanism may include linkages and a catch mechanism configured to cooperate with the latching mechanism for permitting or restricting relative movement between support members, and which may enable sequential telescopic extension or retraction of the support members. The linkages may be adapted to fit within one or more of the telescopic support members, such that the linkages may support a portion of the load, and may enhance stability by restricting lateral movement within the support members.
ADJUSTABLE HEIGHT DESK HAVING A DEPLOYABLE FLOOR MAT
A desk includes a tabletop and at least one base member supporting the tabletop. A footrest is disposed on the at least one base member beneath the tabletop. The footrest is movable between a stowed position toward a back of the desk and a deployed position toward a front of the desk. At least one mechanism is disposed on the at least one base member and operatively coupled to the footrest. The at least one mechanism moving the footrest between the stowed and deployed positions. A floor mat is disposed with the footrest. The floor mat is movable with the footrest between a stowed mat position and a deployed mat position.
LINEAR ACTUATOR WITH PROTECTION MECHANISM
A linear actuator (1) with the protection mechanism includes: a motor case (10) having a case member (11) with a bottom plate (111) on which a through hole (114) is formed; a drive mechanism (20) accommodated in the case member (11); a transmission mechanism (30) having a machine core (31), a bearing (32), a base seat (33) with an extending plate (332) on which a penetrated hole (333) is formed, and a fasten unit (34) with a head part (341), the machine core (31) is connected to the drive mechanism (20), the bearing (32) is disposed on the base seat (33) and sheathes the machine core (31), the fasten unit (34) is fastened with the bottom plate (111); and a protection structure (40) sheathing the fasten unit (34) and disposed between the bottom plate (111) and the head part (341).
SUPPORTING FRAME FOR A PIECE OF FURNITURE
The invention relates to a supporting frame with a lifting column (59) comprising telescopically arranged profiles with an upper and lower end, said upper end having a housing (60) secured thereto, and a base unit (61,62,63) with a compartment at least for partial reception of the lifting column housing (60) and a locking element (75), which when placed in a locked position exerts a squeezing force between the base unit (61,62) and the housing (60) of the lifting column (59). Thus, the housing (60) of the lifting column (59) is positioned and fixed in the base unit (61,62,63). The supporting frame further comprises means for retaining the locking element (78) in the locked position.
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.
ADJUSTABLE FRAME TO SUPPORT A WORKING SURFACE
Adjustable frames to support working surfaces are disclosed herein. An example adjustable frame includes a first frame, a second frame, and a sliding mechanism connected to the first frame and the second frame, the sliding mechanism including a channel bracket having a slot and a slider configured to move within the slot.
