Multifunction workstation and related method of use
A workstation is provided including first and second vertically telescoping support columns, a base frame mounted atop the first and second support columns, so that the base frame is movable up and down, and a desktop joined with the base frame and slidable between a first position in which the desktop is disposed vertically over both the first and second support columns, so a user can sit or stand facing the desktop, and a second position in which the desktop is cantilevered and projects laterally, distally beyond the first support column a first distance beyond the base frame, so that the user can exercise facing the desktop on an exercise device located laterally beyond and outside the first and second support columns. A related method of use is provided.
Desk in the shape of a block character
A desk and desk system are disclosed. The desk forms a three-dimensional shape of an alphabet letter, number, or typographical symbol.
Modular apparatus and elements thereof
The present system is directed to a modular apparatus that may be assembled and disassembled repeatedly without the use of tools. The modular system includes connectors that may be fixed to the underside of a plank and then engaged with leg portions. The connectors further include channels to accommodate retention members of additional attachments, such as covers, guards, signage, or racks that may be added onto the modular apparatus to increase its utility. The retention members mate with the connectors to connect and securely hold the attachment and can be removed from the connectors all without the need for tools.
Removable projectile resistant protective shield for desktops
A bullet resistant protective shield for a desk. The protective shield comprises a shield piece having a first channel coupling mechanism. The first channel coupling includes a substantially horizontal element and a substantially vertical element. The first channel coupling mechanism corresponds to a second channel coupling mechanism on a desktop, which also has a horizontal element and a vertical element. The first horizontal element and the first vertical element define a first channel and the second horizontal element and the second vertical element define a second channel. The first vertical element can be placed in the second channel and the second vertical element can be placed in the first channel thereby removably securing the shield piece to the desktop.
CONSTRUCTION FRAME AND SYSTEM COMPRISING AT LEAST ONE CONSTRUCTION FRAME
The present invention provides a construction frame comprising a front side, a back side, and a side part, wherein said construction frame further at least one receptacle in the side part. Further, a system comprising at least one construction frame according to the invention is provided. In a preferred embodiment said system comprises at least two construction frames which are connected by at least one connector, which is inserted in the at least one receptacle of each construction frame.
Personal control apparatus and method for sharing information in a collaborative workplace
A content sharing device for use in controlling content replicated from a video source device on a large common display screen, the content sharing device comprising a housing, a processor supported by the housing, at least first and second control buttons supported by the housing and linked to the processor, a cable linked to the processor and having a distal end opposite the processor, the cable including a connector at the distal end for linking to the video source device, wherein, the processor is programmed to enable content from the video source device linked to the connector to be replicated in a first field on the common display screen upon selection of the first control button and to enable content from the video source device linked to the connector to be replicated in a second field adjacent to and separate from the first field upon selection of the second control button.
Personal control apparatus and method for sharing information in a collaborative workspace
A conferencing assembly for sharing content from source devices includes a common display screen, a switcher controlling input to the screen, and a table assembly with a tabletop opening. A control cable assembly has a first end linked to the switcher, a second ends having a plug connectable to a source device communication port, and a first control cable located therebetween. A take up assembly including a first weight is disposed below the opening. The control cable assembly links to the first weight to apply a force tending to pull the second end of the control cable assembly toward the opening. A first user interface including a control button useable to send a signal to the switcher causing it to provide first content from a source device connected to the control cable assembly to the screen is integrated into the table assembly and is associated with the control cable assembly.
WORKSTATION ASSEMBLY
A workstation assembly that can be opened when needed is disclosed. When closed, the workstation assembly can be aesthetically pleasing and can have a reduced footprint. When opened, the workstation assembly can include a deployable screen system capable of deploying an interior screen from a door section of the workstation assembly. The screen can provide a backdrop for videoconferencing, can provide improved isolation (e.g., sound isolation, visual isolation, shared airflow isolation, and the like) for an individual within the opened workstation assembly. The deployable screen system can also include an exterior screen for providing an aesthetically pleasing exterior and improved isolation while the workstation assembly is in use. The workstation assembly can also include a surround frame with openings and light sources to provide diffuse illumination to the environment surrounding the workstation assembly, which can be especially useful when natural light is unavailable.
Electric lifting media wall
The present disclosure discloses an electric lifting media wall, comprising a base, a lifting component including at least one group of lifting columns with lower ends connected to the base and a drive mechanism driving the lifting columns to ascend or descend, a support frame for connection with a display mounting rack that is connected to the lifting columns and ascends or descends along with the lifting columns synchronously, and a wall shroud that shrouds outside the lifting component and the support frame. The electric lifting media wall is adjustable in height, high in bearing capability, multifunctional, convenient in assembly and disassembly, easy for later maintenance, and small in package size.
