A novel workstation which incorporates an acoustical dome for increased acoustic and visual privacy for the user. The workstation further is adjustable in height such that it can accommodate a range of users from the 5.sup.th percentile seated female to the 95.sup.th percentile standing male according to the dictates of ANSI/HFES100-2007 national ergonomic standard. The workstation is further designed to be in electrical and data communication with other workstations to optimize the workstation density in an open working environment without compromising user privacy.

An adjustable power and data rail for static height and vertically adjustable desks. The adjustable power and data rail fits between the static height and vertically adjustable desks and expands as needed either horizontally or vertically to match the installation configuration with paired multiple desks. The power and data rail provides connectivity for each of the static height or vertically adjustable desks to data and power connectors.

A folding support structure includes a top support and a leg assembly. The top support has a pivot connector and an assembler, wherein the assembler has an assembling surface. The leg assembly includes a column, which includes a pivotally connected end, a free end, and a wing. The column is pivotally connected to the pivot connector of the top support with the pivotally connected end thereof, whereby the column is pivotable relative to the top support. The wing of the column has an abutting surface. When the column pivots to an unfolded position, the abutting surface of the wing contacts the assembling surface of the assembler, and is secured thereto through a fixing connection approach. By folding a top and legs of a desk, the total volume could be reduced, benefiting the cargo capacity utilization, which therefore increases the shipping efficiency. Furthermore, such a desk can be easily assembled.

A picnic table includes a table panel, one or more bench panels and a supporting frame to support the table and bench panels. The supporting frame includes first and second supporting assemblies, each including a table support and one or more bench supports. The supporting frame further includes a table frame and one or more bench frames. The table frame rotatably connects the table support of each of the first and second supporting assemblies with the table panel. Each bench frame rotatably connects a bench support of each of the first and second supporting assemblies with a bench panel. The table support of each of the first and second supporting assemblies is adjustable in length. Adjusting the length of the table support changes the height of the table panel with respect to the one or more bench panels.

Disclosed is an actuated, height adjustable optical table or workstation for use in microscopy, optical research laboratories and similar environments. The height adjustable design includes fixed and moving parts which combine to create a rigid, height adjustable table structure on which to mount an optical breadboard or similar platforms via optional rigid, passive or active vibration isolation mounts. The height adjustment is performed by multiple compact actuators with associated control hardware and software, and allows the user or an application system to perform activities with the table at any heights.

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.

Example composite material devices, apparatus, articles of manufacture, and methods of manufacture are disclosed. An example adjustable stabilizer bar includes: a first segment having a first end and a second end; a second segment having a first end and a second end, the first end of the second segment to at least partially overlap the second end of the first segment; an attachment mechanism to position the second segment with respect to the first segment; a first clamping portion at the first end of the first segment to removably affix the first segment to a first furniture element; and a second clamping portion at the second end of the second segment to removably affix the second segment to a second furniture element.
