Modular carts having a single vertical frame
This application describes carts having a single vertical frame supported by a tripod-like leg structure. They are collapsible, extendable, and able to accommodate a wide variety of different accessories. To add accessories, carts can include one or more coupling components. Each coupling component includes at least one clamp that can be tightened around a cart's vertical frame along with a female coupler and a male coupler. The female coupler can be attached to a clamp and a male coupler can be attached to an accessory. The male coupler features a v-shaped extrusion and the female coupler features a complementary v-shaped intrusion allowing the male coupler to couple with the female coupler so that accessories can be added to the cart in a cantilevered manner.
Frame for a table
A frame for sit-stand-tables comprising a longitudinal member, two height-adjustable legs with at least two telescopic profiles, namely an outer and an inner profile, and with a driving mechanism, driven by a motor unit, comprising an electric motor and a gear. According to the invention the motor unit is arranged in the longitudinal member and connected to the driving mechanism in the height-adjustable legs. Thus, a frame with a simplified construction is achieved. The construction of the legs can be simplified and at the same time the dimensions can be reduced, as it is not necessary to take the building-in of a motor into the legs into consideration. As both legs are driven by a joint motor unit, the electric control can also be simplified as it will not have to drive the two legs synchronously.

Height adjustable table
A table has a tabletop, a vertical support, and a mounting frame disposed at a top end of the vertical support and attached to the tabletop. The mounting frame includes a fixing base, a rotating frame rotatably connected to the fixing base, and a rotating handle assembly rotatably connected to the rotating frame. The rotating frame is operable to rotate between a horizontal position and a vertical position. The rotating handle assembly includes an abutting block that engages the lower embedding notch in the fixing base when the rotating frame is in the horizontal position. The rotating handle assembly has a lower edge that engages the upper embedding notch in the fixing base when the rotating frame is in the vertical position. A handle, which extends outwardly from the rotating handle assembly, is configured to be operated by a user to move the rotating frame between the vertical position and the horizontal position.

Mobile computer workstation
The mobile computer workstation is a cart. The mobile computer workstation is configured for use with a computer. The mobile computer workstation forms a mobile station on which the computer is placed. The mobile computer workstation allows the computer readily moved between locations without requiring the disassembly and assembly of the various components of the computer. The elevation of the superior surface of the mobile computer workstation is adjustable such that the computer can be used while standing or sitting. The mobile computer workstation comprises a pedestal, a telescopic master stanchion, and a pivoting desk. The telescopic master stanchion attaches the pedestal to the pivoting desk. The pivoting desk forms the working horizontal surface of the mobile computer workstation. The pedestal: a) is a rolling structure used to move the computer; and, b) stores the elements of the computer not associated with interface functions with a user.

TABLE ASSEMBLY WITH REVERSIBLE LEG ASSEMBLIES
A leg assembly for a table includes a support that is configured to couple to a table worksurface. A leg member engages the support and is movable with respect to the support such that the leg assembly is configured to support the table worksurface above a floor surface. A first friction reduction member is attached to a first end of the leg member. A second friction reduction member is configured to attach to a second end of the leg member. The first and second ends are configured to alternately engage the support from one another such that the leg member is reversibly received by the support and such that the first friction reduction member abuts the floor surface when the second end of the leg member engages the support, and the second friction reduction member abuts the floor surface when the first end of the leg member engages the support.

WORKSPACE SYSTEM AND COMPONENTS AND METHOD FOR THE USE THEREOF
A workspace system includes different base components, different accessory interfaces and different accessories. Different accessory interfaces may be fixed to different base components, and different accessories may be releasably engaged by different, or the same accessory interfaces. The same accessories may be engaged by different accessory interfaces. The base components and accessories may be reconfigured to define different workspaces. Methods of assembling and reconfiguring the workspaces are also provided.
