Frame type workstation configurations
A furniture assembly comprising a first frame structure having front and rear portions and including at least a first leg member and a substantially horizontal first rail member supported by the at least a first leg member where the first rail member has a first length dimension, a substantially horizontal second rail member supported by the at least a second leg member spaced apart from the first rail member wherein an assembly space includes the space between the first and second rail members, a front portion of the assembly space adjacent the front portion of the first frame structure and a rear portion of the assembly space adjacent the rear portion of the first frame structure, a first furniture sub-assembly having first and second ends, having a first depth dimension and supported within the assembly space by the first and second rail members and a second furniture sub-assembly having first and second ends, a second depth dimension and supported within the assembly space by the first rail member and a rail member of another frame structure, wherein the combined first and second depth dimensions are less than the first length dimension.
Workbench
The invention discloses a workbench, comprising: a folding base comprising a left support frame and a right support frame cross connected with each other by a pivot and a handle rod connected with tops of the left support frame and the right support frame; a movable plate fixed on the left support frame and provided with at least one first fixing hole; a fixed plate fixed on the right support frame and provided with at least one second fixing hole; the movable plate and the fixed plate are spread out on the upper surface of the folding base as the left support frame and right support frame are unfolded; and the movable plate and the fixed plate are folded downwards along both sides of the handle rod as the left support frame and the right support frame are furled. The present invention allows the workbench to be folded by folding downwards the movable plate and the fixed plate, such that the workbench occupies less space and the folded workbench is more secure. The additional first fixing hole and second fixing hole on the workbench effectively stabilize workpieces.
Systems and methods for controlling an interactive workstation based on biometric input
Systems and methods are disclosed for moving a tabletop of a workstation based on biometric input associated with a user, the method being performed by a controller that is configured to send control signals to actuators to move the tabletop. One method includes: accessing a user profile associated with a user device; determining parameters for moving the tabletop, based on the user profile, for eliciting desired biometric inputs from the workstation user at one or more times during the movement of the tabletop; and repeating one or more iterations of: moving the tabletop based on the parameters, by sending control signals to the actuators of the tabletop; receiving, into a data storage device, actual biometric inputs from the workstation user; comparing the received actual biometric inputs with the desired biometric inputs; and if the parameters do not elicit the desired biometric inputs, adjusting the parameters.
Flip-top table for protection from projectiles
A flip-top table has a tabletop attached to a frame through a pivoting assembly. The tabletop is made from a ballistic-resistant material allowing it to be used as a ballistic shield when it rotates from its horizontal working position to a vertical shielding position. A front modesty panel is also ballistic-resistant and is mounted between the front legs of the frame. A lift speed restrictor is connected between the tabletop and the frame which prevents the user from lifting the tabletop too quickly which could topple the table, and it includes a biasing mechanism that provides a lifting force and helps to hold the tabletop in the shielding position. The table also includes visual indicators that readily indicate to persons around the table that the table can be converted into a ballistic shield. Casters allow one or more tables to be quickly moved and repositioned into a defensive arrangement.
ADJUSTABLE TABLE APPARATUS AND METHOD
An adjustable table apparatus and related method can include a table configured to adjust between an operative position and a collapsed position.
Mobile color and style application device
A mobile color and style application device is disclosed. The device includes a base. The device further includes an adjustable tower coupled to the base. The adjustable tower including one or more tower locks configured to adjust a vertical height of the adjustable tower. The device further includes a plate coupled to the adjustable tower. The plate includes one or more tower locks configured to adjust a tilt angle of the plate. The device further includes one or more platforms. The one or more platforms are configured to couple to a portion of the plate via a quick-connect coupling mechanism. The one or more platforms include one or more cut-outs. The one or more cut-outs are configured to conform to a portion of at least one of a neck or a head of a user.
Embedded numerical control rotary table
The invention provides a nested numerical control rotary table, which comprises a large numerical control rotary table, a small rotary table, a large rotary table board and a small rotary table board nested in the large rotary table board, wherein the small rotary table board may be driven by the large numerical control rotary table as a part of the large rotary table board to run together with the large rotary table board, or be driven by the small rotary table to run independently. When the small rotary table board runs independently, the small rotary table is driven to ascend by a lifting oil cylinder, and a pull pin under the small rotary table board and a positioning pin on the small rotary table fixedly connect the small rotary table board with the small rotary table, which are locked by a clamp. The nested numerical control rotary table may complete the tasks of numerical control rotary tables with both large and small dimensions, which saves the production cost and improves the working efficiency. Moreover, switch between the large rotary table and the small rotary table is convenient, so time is saved.
Mobile desk assembly
A mobile desk assembly for provision of a mobile and transportable workstation includes a first leg, which is positioned between a pair of first plates and engaged thereto by a plurality of first pins so that the first plates bracket the first leg. A seat is engaged to a first end of the pair of first plates. A rod is engaged via a first pivot pin to the first plates, proximate a second end thereof. A pair of second legs is hingedly engaged to the rod distal from the first plates. The first leg, the rod, and the second legs are selectively positionable in a deployed (tripodal) and a collapsed configurations. The first and second legs each have a wheel rotationally engaged thereto. A panel engaged to an upper terminus of the first leg is substantially parallel to the surface and can support an article positioned thereupon.
HEIGHT ADJUSTABLE PLATFORMS AND ASSOCIATED MECHANISMS
A mobile workstation can include a head unit assembly. A worksurface can be coupled to the head unit assembly and configured to translate with respect to the head unit assembly between an open configuration and a closed configuration. A glide can be rotatably coupled to the head unit assembly and engaged with the worksurface. The glide can include a latch configured to translate with respect to a glide body of the glide. The mobile workstation can include a worksurface opening mechanism having a locking configuration and an unlocking configuration. The worksurface opening mechanism can include a latch release handle moveably coupled to the head unit assembly. Movement of the latch release handle can transition the worksurface opening mechanism between the locked configuration and the unlocked configuration. A release assembly can selectively engage with the first latch. A lift system can bias the worksurface away from the head unit assembly.
Tray with variable positioning and support
An apparatus comprises a tray including a plurality of radial openings. An inner tray support and an outer tray support are connected to the tray using a fixed connection that allows the tray to pivot within the inner tray support and the outer tray support. A spring-tensioned ball catch is configured to provide the tray a slip-locking connection through the plurality of radial openings of the tray that allows the tray to be rotationally adjusted within the inner tray support and the outer tray support.
