An articulating support arm includes a base, a first set of control arms having proximal ends and distal ends, with the proximal ends of the first set of control arms being pivotally connected to the base. The support arm further includes a second set of control arms having proximal ends and distal ends, with the proximal ends of the second set of control arms being disposed forward of and pivotally connected to the distal ends of the first set of control arms. The distal ends of the second set of control arms also are pivotally connected to a control head, and a locking assembly selectively prevents pivotal movement of the control arms, so as to provide vertical adjustment of the control head relative to the base.

A workstation including a height-adjustable work surface is described. The workstation includes a frame, and the work surface is configured to translate relative to the frame to vary a height of the work surface. A lift assembly configured to assist translation of the work surface relative to the frame. The lift assembly includes a moveable component and translation of the moveable component results in a translation of the work surface relative to the frame. A translation sensor is coupled to one of the frame or the movable component, and it is configured to measure translation of the moveable component relative to the frame. A control circuit is in communication with the translation sensor to determine an amount of translation of the work surface relative to the frame.

A work and discussion space includes two installation blocks that are positioned opposite one another. Each installation block accommodates two people and includes a vertical partitioning structure, two seats positioned against the vertical structure and separated by at least one module for storing professional and/or personal accessories, and a work surface each associated with a seat. The worksurfaces are movable between a position that is distant from, and a position that is close to, the corresponding seat.

An adjustable lifting column for adjusting a piece of furniture comprises a drive assembly, a threaded spindle assembly comprising at least two concentrically arranged threaded spindles, of which an outer threaded spindle concentrically surrounds at least one further threaded spindle, a telescopic tube assembly comprising three concentrically arranged telescopic tubes, and a driver mechanism having an internal thread. The threaded spindle assembly is located within the telescopic tube assembly. Two adjacent threaded spindles of the threaded assembly have a common threaded connection. One of the at least two threaded spindles in the threaded spindle assembly is connected to the drive assembly for driving this one threaded spindle. The outer threaded spindle also has an external thread in which the internal thread of the driver mechanism engages. The driver mechanism is connected to a middle telescopic tube of the three telescopic tubes.

An anatomy table for use in autopsies and dissections comprises a base and an immersion storage tank arranged in the base. The anatomy table further comprises a dissection lid arranged on the base, wherein the dissection lid covers the immersion storage tank in its closed position. The table also comprises a hinge secured between the dissection lid and a top edge of the base, wherein the dissection lid rotates about the hinge between a first and second position, wherein the first position allows for access to the body stored in the anatomy table immersion storage tank while the second or closed position of the dissection lid allows for dissecting to occur directly on top of the anatomy table.
