VARIABLE HEIGHT DESK

A desk having a desktop and a lever coupled to a lower surface of the desktop. The desk has leg coupled to the lower surface and including an inner leg telescopically moveable with respect to an outer leg. The desk has a pin extending through an aperture in the outer leg and coupled to the lever with a linkage system. The lever is configured to retract the pin into the inner leg or outer leg allowing the desktop to move between a first height and a second height.

POWERED SIT-STAND DESK
20190159586 · 2019-05-30 ·

Sit-stand desk, such as conversion desks, provide a convenient option for desk work by users who desire the option to selectively sit or stand. Often, the vertical distance between a keyboard and monitor differs when in the sitting configuration versus the standing configuration. A sit-stand desk provided herein allows for a user to transition between a sitting configuration and a standing configuration with a single lifting mechanism with a programmable distance variation between the keyboard and monitor. Accordingly, a user may transition between the sitting configuration and the standing configuration without requiring readjustment of the relative distance between the monitor and keyboard.

DESK MOUNTABLE WORKSTATION
20190125073 · 2019-05-02 ·

An adjustable desk mountable workstation (90) comprising: a platform (12) adapted to support a computer keyboard thereon; and a pair of symmetrically opposed legs (91) for standing or mounting on a desk and on which the platform (12) is mounted, the legs (91) being adjustable so as to alter the height of the platform (12) above the desk, each leg (91) having outer and inner ends, wherein adjustment of the legs (91) involves concomitant pivoting without displacement at their respective outer ends and pivoting plus horizontal displacement at their respective inner ends, thereby altering the height of the platform (91) with respect to the desk.

METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR RAISING AND LOWERING OF DESK WITHIN A WORK SURFACE
20190059574 · 2019-02-28 ·

A desk within a work surface or table such that the desk can be raised and lowered to any desired position in relation to the work surface using an actuator that controls the use of telescoping legs or rods. During the process of returning the desk back to its original flush, or in horizontal seamless alignment with, the rest of the work surface, a knee action safety device co-acts, or in combination, with a gas spring is used for controlling the lowering of the desk and creating a virtually weightless of desk during final descent; thus, eliminating the possibility of a person's limb or hand being crushed or severely injured, even if these are providing obstruction

COMPACT, MOTORIZED, HEIGHT-ADJUSTIBLE, SOFTWARE-CONTROLLED DESKTOP SYTEM
20190053617 · 2019-02-21 ·

An improved, height-adjustable desktop system that accommodates various postures including, but not limited to, seated in a chair at a desk, or standing upright on a floor, or various possible positions in between fully-seated or fully-standing, according to a user's preference. Systems and methods for providing computer-control for height adjustments allowing automatic or remote adjustment or both. The desktop system further providing minimalized footprint and upright design to allow placement in small spaces.

Portable and foldable workstation apparatus

A portable workstation apparatus includes: a pair of collapsible legs; and a work portion that is attached in a removable manner to the pair of collapsible lags via a pair of brackets. Each leg of the pair of collapsible legs includes: a frame; an extension connected to a first end of the frame; a lower post housed within a sleeve; an upper post; a hinge connecting the lower post and the upper post; a first brace connecting the extension to the sleeve; and a plurality of holes on an exterior face of the lower post or the upper post. Each leg is configured to collapse by folding the upper post towards the lower post via the hinge and rotating the extension toward the lower post.

Continuous force spring elevatable work platform

A work platform height adjustment apparatus having a frame and a support assembly moveably mounted on the frame. The frame is provided with cover panels which are mounted to the frame and the support assembly carries a spring biased work platform on brackets mounted to the support assembly so that the work platform can assume a number of fixed height positions.

Locking against rotation of electric motor of a linear actuator

The present invention relates to a linear actuator with an improved electric motor. In particular, the invention focuses on improved technical solutions for braking or locking of a rotating electric motor by using an electro-mechanical locking mechanism. The mechanism uses a solenoid having a nonrotating locking element, which is displaceable by solenoid action and arranged to engage with a rotating locking element. In particular, solutions have been found in which a surprisingly small solenoid with a much-reduced requirement on stroke length may be deployed to effectively unidirectionally or bidirectionally lock against rotation of the motor.

Systems and methods for automatically directing a height adjustable desk based on a plurality of sensors
12390005 · 2025-08-19 · ·

Systems and methods for adjusting position and/or orientation of a height adjustable desk are disclosed. The system receives data from one or more sensors, comprising sit and stand periods associated with a user of the height adjustable desk. The system further calculates a physical condition profile for the user, based on a pre-configured set of rules obtained by a network-connected health application. The physical condition profile is based on the sit and stand periods associated with the user. Further, the system creates a sit and stand schedule for the user based on the calculated physical condition profile and transmits a signal to an electric motor connected with the height adjustable desk, to adjust the height of height adjustable desk according to the sit and stand schedule.

INTELLIGENT WORKSPACE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM WITH PREDICTIVE HEALTH-BASED WORKSPACE ADJUSTMENT
20250338954 · 2025-11-06 · ·

Systems and methods for proactive workspace management are disclosed. The system receives calendar information from external calendar services comprising scheduled events and event types and analyzes the scheduled events to determine optimal workspace configurations for different activity types. The system receives real-time physiological data from multiple health sensors including glucose meters, body mass indicators, power meters, and oxygen meters. A dynamic physical condition profile is computed based on the real-time physiological data and historical user metrics. The system automatically generates proactive workspace adjustment commands based on calendar information and the dynamic physical condition profile and transmits control signals to electric motors associated with height-adjustable desks to implement workspace adjustments prior to scheduled events. Additional features include continuous posture monitoring through weight distribution analysis, ultrasonic height detection, user profile management, IoT exercise equipment integration, and real-time posture coaching notifications.
