A desk frame elevation structure includes an inner tube telescopically received in an outer tube and a roller unit between the inner and outer tubes. The outer tube is fixed to a base and includes a bottom plate and a first top plate. A desk board unit is fixed to the inner tube. A telescopic rod is received in the inner tube and has top and bottom ends coupled to the outer and inner tubes, respectively. The inner tube extends through an upper buffer pad disposed below the first top plate. The upper buffer pad has an upper face abutting the first top plate and a lower face for abutting an abutting edge of the inner tube. A lower buffer pad is disposed above the bottom plate and includes a lower face abutting the bottom plate and an upper face for abutting a bottom end of the inner tube.

A workcell comprises a base structure, a column having a lower part connected to the base structure and an upper part which is height-adjustable relative to the lower part. A first and a second support structure are mechanically connected to the upper part of the column via a first and a second joint element to allow axial rotation of the support structures around the column. At least one of the joint elements comprises a latching mechanism configured to block movement of the joint element with respect to the column in a normal state and to release movement of the joint element during an adjustment operation initiated by a user of the workcell.

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.

A height-adjustable desk is disclosed. Exemplary implementations may include a work surface, a left-side support structure, a right-side support structure, a core body, and a working body that provides the work surface. The core body may include lifting mechanisms such that the work surface of the desk may be positioned for a person in a standing and/or sitting position. The working body may include a control interface configured to be manually engaged by the user, to control lifting and/or lowering of the work surface of the desk.

An article of furniture can include a work surface attachment mechanism that is configured to adjustably connect a work surface to a base of the article. The work surface attachment mechanism can be incorporated into one or more legs and be configured to facilitate attachment of different work surfaces of different thicknesses to the base for supporting the work surface above a floor. The work surface attachment mechanism can be adjustable to facilitate such functionality while avoiding large sized gaps that can detract from the aesthetic effect of the article or the base of the article.
