Secure storage device
A secure storage device contains multiple compartments under a table top. The table top may move laterally to allow authorized users to access storage areas. A drawer in the device may also be accessed by an authorized user. The movement of the table top and drawer is directed by a central computer in communication with a biometric sensor located on the device. The central computer may be programmed to allow different types of access to the device based upon fingerprints or other biometric information from a user.
FRAME TYPE WORKSTATION CONFIGURATIONS
A table assembly includes a tabletop member having a tabletop worksurface and a downwardly directed lower surface. A leg structure including first and second substantially vertical and spaced apart leg members is coupled to the lower surface for supporting the tabletop member. An elongated horizontal upper member extends between upper ends of the leg members. An elongated horizontal lower member below the tabletop member lower surface extends between and is joined to the leg members intermediate their upper and lower ends to form a gap with the upper member. A removable accessory bracket includes a substantially flat vertical member extending along a first plane and a lip member coupled to an upper end of the vertical member, the lip member extending along a second, substantially parallel plane spaced from the first plane and engaging the lower member to support the accessory bracket adjacent the outer surface of the lower member.

Article of furniture
An article of furniture includes a top member defining a planar work surface. A support structure supports the top member in spaced relationship relative to a floor, the support structure including a plurality of legs. At least one of the legs defines a socket having an opening at a top of at least one of the legs. A power connector is arranged within the socket of at least one of the legs. The power connector is configured to make electrical contact with an electrical connector of an electrical accessory when the electrical connector is received in the socket of at least one of the legs.
MULTI-USE DESK-CABINET
A multi-use desk-cabinet is provided. The multi-use desk-cabinet comprises a rear cabinet wall having a left and a right side cabinet wall mounted thereto. A desk plate is slidably and pivotally movable mounted to each of the left and the right side cabinet wall such that the desk plate is movable from a substantially vertical position in proximity to a front end of the left and the right side cabinet wall to a substantially horizontal position such that a rear end of the desk plate is placed in close proximity to the rear cabinet wall.
Modular closet door and hinge system
A closet assembly includes a fixed portion that is configured to be disposed at a closet opening and an operable door portion that is configured to move relative to the fixed portion between a closed position and an open position. A hinge assembly is configured to attach between the operable door portion and the structural opening, such that the operable door portion moves via the hinge assembly. The hinge assembly includes an upper base bracket and a lower base bracket that each have a plate portion and a cylindrical projection extending substantially orthogonal from a planar extent of the plate portion. The hinge assembly also includes a door bracket that has a vertical member extending between upper and lower horizontal members. The upper and lower horizontal members are pivotally coupled with the cylindrical projections of the respective upper and lower base brackets.
Furniture Cooler Combination Device
A furniture cooler combination device facilitates discrete storage of items in a cooler positioned on a deck, porch, or in a sitting area. The device includes a box positioned beneath a lid. The insulated box has a bottom wall and a peripheral wall coupled to and extending up from the bottom wall. A distal edge of the peripheral wall relative to the bottom wall defines an open top of the box. An exterior surface of the peripheral wall is structured to resemble a plurality of legs and panels. Each panel has an outer face inset relative an associated outside face of each of the legs wherein the exterior surface is configured to resemble furniture.
Side Cabinet with a Telescopically Arranged Table
A side cabinet includes a cabinet body, a table, an electric cylinder, and an extension device. The extension device includes two slide track units, a holding assembly, a telescopically arranged mechanism, and a linkage. The linkage includes at least one linking lever. The holding assembly includes a spring holder, and a spring mounted in the spring holder. The spring of the holding assembly is used to lock the at least one linking lever of the linkage. Thus, when the electric cylinder is operated, the telescopically arranged mechanism is driven to push the holding assembly, the linkage, and the table outward, and the spring is pulled outward to drive the linkage and the table to move upward, such that the table is moved transversely and lifted to facilitate the user using the table.

A support structure supports the top member in spaced relationship relative to a floor, the support structure including a plurality of legs. At least one of the legs defines a socket having an opening at a top of at least one of the legs. A power connector is arranged within the socket of at least one of the legs. The power connector is configured to make electrical contact with an electrical connector of an electrical accessory when the electrical connector is received in the socket of at least one of the legs.
Sleep system
A furniture system (600) includes an inner back (620) and a conversion mechanism (800) which operates so as to move the inner back (620) from a sofa configuration to a sleep configuration. A table assembly (700) is also provided which utilizes a table mechanism (710) so as to permit a user to manually adjust the height of a table top (701) among three functional positions.
