A retail display table includes a table top with openings, and a modular display mat disposed over each opening. Each of the modular display mats is movable between a closed position in which it covers its respective table-top opening, and an open position in which it is lifted above the table top so that a cavity underneath the modular display mat is accessible. Also, each modular display mat has holes to accommodate a configuration of displayed items, and is removable and replaceable with another modular display mat having a different configuration of holes to accommodate a different configuration of displayed items. A retail display system may include such a retail display table, along with other modular retail fixtures such as display walls with modular display wall inserts and retail counter units with modular display mats interchangeable with those of the retail display table.

A height-adjustable table with tabletop touch control includes a table frame, a motor unit, a tabletop, a controller, a touch button box, and a covering. Through the touch button box connected to the controller in cooperation with the controller to control the motor unit, the motor unit drives the table frame to move up and down to achieve the lifting and lowering of the tabletop. The user can adjust the height of the tabletop by simply manipulating the touch button box. The adjustment is more convenient.

A workstation includes a partition unit to form a workspace, in which a desk board, two lifting apparatuses and a driving device are provided. Each of the lifting apparatuses has a first tubular member connected to a bottom of the desk board, a second tubular member fixed to the partition unit, and a lifting device to move the first tubular member relative to the second tubular member. The driving device is connected to the lifting devices to drive the lifting devices to move the first tubular members so as to lift and lower the desk board.

Disclosed is a hindered-to-flip-up structure for a desktop lifting platform, wherein the desktop lifting platform includes a lifting column, and a supporting plate that rises or descends with the lifting column; the hindered-to-flip-up structure is disposed on the supporting plate; the supporting plate includes a fixing plate and a flip plate in rotatable connection with the fixing plate; a limiting device is provided on the supporting plate; when the flip plate rotates downwardly, the limiting device limits the flip plate from downward rotation; the flip plate is free to rotate upwardly. Further disclosed is a desktop lifting platform adopting the hindered-to-flip-up structure. The disclosures offer advantages of better protecting the desktop lifting platform and protecting items on the desk from being excessively crushed and crashed. The disclosures are mainly placed on a work platform such as a desk.

A swivel mount assembly (SMA) for rotational mounting an electronic device onto a substantially stationary apparatus is provided comprising: a mounting portion adapted to mount the SMA to an electronic device; a swivel tube assembly attached to the mounting portion, and adapted to be inserted through a hole in the substantially stationary apparatus, and wherein the swivel tube is further adapted to provide rotational movement of the electronic device in regard to the substantially stationary apparatus; a rotation limiting assembly; and a securing assembly adapted to secure the swivel tube assembly to the substantially stationary apparatus in a securing but rotational manner.

A multifunctional, highly visible and perceptible optical workplace status display system. In particular, the optical workstation status display system should make the occupancy or availability of the office workstation, the usage status of office communication devices and/or the status of the employee optically visible. The workstation status display system should be adaptable to different office workstations and individual requirements.

The invention relates to an electrical heating apparatus for arranging under a table, the heating apparatus comprising a housing, at least one electrically powered heat source arranged inside said housing, and heat shielding means comprised in the housing and having a plurality of through holes configured for allowing heat radiation from the electrically powered heat source to pass, wherein the heat shielding means comprises a layer of a material with a thermal conductivity lower than 2 [W.Math.m.sup.1.Math.K.sup.1], and wherein the inner surface of the heat shielding means is applied with a layer of heat radiation reflecting material configured for reflecting the heat radiated from the heat source back against the inner part of the housing.

A system for workstation power trough including: a planar body; an access through the planar body, the access comprising a slot, an opening, and a plurality of first notches; a panel adapted to fit within the opening; and a power trough connected to a bottom surface of the planar body, the power trough configured to enclose a power unit; whereby a cable may be routed through the access and coupled to the power unit. A method of using a workstation power trough comprising the steps of rotating the panel to an open position, routing a first end of the cable through the access into the power trough, coupling the first end of the cable to the power unit, rotating the panel to a closed position, sliding the cable along the slot, and securing the cable into one of the plurality of first notches.

A cord management system for a cabinet or other similar furniture, appliances, or other applications include a conduit. A cord management weight is disposed within the conduit. The cord management weight includes a cord receiving portion and a weight locking feature. The cord receiving portion is configured to receive a portion of an electrical cord of an electronic device. The weight locking feature is configured to selectively prevent translational movement of the cord management weight within the conduit. The cord management weight is configured to be selectively retracted into the conduit and locked into position within the conduit.
