A table includes a table top having an underside, a top structure, a base structure, and a control mechanism. The top structure is attached to the table top and includes hollow supports cylinders arranged parallel to each other and a top support bar configured to support a tilt assembly. The support cylinders extend downwardly away from the table top. The base structure includes hollow legs extending upwardly and configured to receive at least a portion of the support cylinders. The control mechanism is operably connected to movement mechanisms disposed within the support cylinders and the legs. The control mechanism is configured to directly and simultaneously control each movement mechanism so as to raise and lower the support cylinders relative to the legs. The tilt assembly is affixed to the underside and to the top support bar and is configured to pivot about a pivot axis.

A table arrangement includes connection mechanisms for inter-connection of height adjustable tabletops so that the tabletops are independently moveable in a stable way. Embodiments of the table arrangement can be configured so that different height adjustable tabletops can be arranged to accommodate different users' preferences. Some embodiments of the table arrangement can utilize at least one cross-member connection mechanism connected to at least one column connection mechanisms 20.

A workstation system comprises a table, at least one electric drive arranged to adjust a height of the table, at least one depth sensor arranged on the table, the depth sensor being arranged to measure, in at least one point, a distance between the at least one depth sensor and a user of the workstation system located in front of the table, and at least one inclination sensor, in particular forming a physical unit with the at least one depth sensor, the inclination sensor being arranged to detect an angle of inclination of the depth sensor. The workstation system further comprises at least one evaluation unit arranged to evaluate a setting height of the table when the distance measured by the depth sensor falls below or exceeds a predefined value and to calculate and signal a height of the user based on the setting height and the inclination angle of the at least one inclination sensor if the current table height is not suitable for the height of the user.
