A panel support assembly is described. The panel support assembly includes a clamp, which includes at least one panel clamping jaw for clamping a portion of a panel; and a base operatively connected to the clamp at a joint. The joint is configured to rotate the base portion relative to the clamp portion. The base further includes a foot for engaging with a surface upon which the panel assembly rests.

A height adjustable device including a counterbalance mechanism configured to he affixed adjacent to a rear portion of a vertical support member, a worksurface configured to he affixed adjacent to a front portion of the vertical support member, and a mounting member configured to slidably couple the worksurface to the counterbalance mechanism; wherein a portion of the mounting member extends through an opening defined in the vertical support member.

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 height adjustable device including a counterbalance mechanism configured to be affixed adjacent to a rear portion of a vertical support member, a worksurface configured to be affixed adjacent to a front portion of the vertical support member, and a mounting member configured to slidably couple the worksurface to the counterbalance mechanism; wherein a portion of the mounting member extends through an opening defined in the vertical support member.

Method and apparatus for a desk/chair assembly having sheets of ballistic material attached around its top and outer edges and a chair portion also having ballistic material attached thereto for use by the occupant for seating purposes wherein the chair portion is attached to the desk portion using a pivoting arm so as to allow the chair portion to be moved between multiple positions including the normal seated position, an open position and a closed position wherein a user can hide inside a safety zone created by the chair and desk assembly. A pivoting arm is attached to an underside of the desk top on one end and fixedly connected to the underside of the chair seat on its other end. A handle is also provided for moving the chair portion between its various positions.

A workspace system includes different base components, different accessory interfaces and different accessories. Different accessory interfaces may be fixed to different base components, and different accessories may be releasably engaged by different, or the same accessory interfaces. The same accessories may be engaged by different accessory interfaces. The base components and accessories may be reconfigured to define different workspaces. Methods of assembling and reconfiguring the workspaces are also provided.

An outdoor lattice system comprises at least two posts and a plurality of modular lattice systems configured to be disposed between and supported by the at least two posts. The posts have an elongate body comprising multiple support openings arranged along the elongate body. Each of the modular lattice sections comprise a body, a first edge and a second edge, each edge being a longitudinal edge of the body, the second edge opposite to the first edge, each of the first edge and the second edge comprising a support element extending outwardly therefrom. The support element is configured to couple mechanically with a support opening from the plurality of support openings of the first post, and the at least one support element on the second edge of the first modular lattice section configured to couple mechanically with a support opening from the plurality of support openings of the second post.

The intensive use shelf is constructed to attach to a wall and prevent ligature attachments. The intensive use shelf is formed of a one piece hollow body having sloped horizontal surfaces and without ligature tie off points such as holes in the one piece body. The body comprises a pair of sloped side walls, a sloped top and a pocket for retaining a hangar hook. Each of the pair of sloped sidewalls have a higher point on the wall and the lower point spaced from the wall. The sloped top is on the sloped sidewalls to provide a sloped top and hold the sidewalls spaced apart. The hangar support comprises an indentation in the body to hold a hangar hook.

The invention is directed to an intensive use furniture component having a sealing connection on a mounting surface for sealingly attaching to a floor or wall to prevent liquid from seeping under or behind the furniture component. The furniture component is formed by an outer shell having a side wall extending generally perpendicular to the mounting surface. A mounting flange is disposed adjacent the sidewall. A bolt hole is formed in the mounting flange. The sealing connection comprises a caulk channel formed as a channel in the mounting surface for receiving a bead of caulk to fill the seam between the mounting surface and the wall or floor to prevent fluid from seeping past the caulk channel to a space adjacent the interior mounting surface.

A fastening mechanism configured to connect a first member to a second member, the fastening mechanism comprising: a clamp member having an enclosure for enclosing the first member, and engagement sheets extending from two side edges of the enclosure, the engagement sheet being provided with a first engagement portion; a locking member having slots, the engagement sheets of the clamp member being configured to be able to be inserted through the slots; and an actuating and tensioning means, wherein the actuating and tensioning means comprises: a main body portion provided with second engagement portions engaged with the first engagement portions of the engagement sheets, and a force application mechanism affixed to the main body portion for applying a force on the locking member to shift the relative position between the locking member and the clamp member. Also, the disclosure relates to a furniture assembly using the fastening mechanism.
