A pop-up outlet includes a lower housing configured to receive one or more conductors. A middle housing is connected to the lower housing. An upper housing is moveably connected to the middle housing. An outlet is positioned in the upper housing having an outlet body and at least one receptacle opening. A raise/lower mechanism is configured to move the upper housing with respect to the middle housing from a first position where the outlet body is positioned in the middle housing to a second position where the outlet body is exposed to a user.

An electrical box assembly for mounting an electrical component in a countertop. The assembly includes an electrical box with an enclosure adapted to receive electrical wiring. A sidewall on the electrical box includes one or more channels each including a channel bottom, a ramp, and a channel cover with a slot. A mounting bracket includes a base and two arm members and is loosely assembled to the electrical box with the mounting fasteners. A cover bracket is secured in each of the slots. A cover provides access to the electrical component and includes a cover plate, a cavity for housing an electrical component, and a snap-engagement latch for selectively latching the electrical component outward of the cover plate or inward within the electrical box enclosure. Installation time and effort are minimized as site preparation requires only a single hole that may be made with a standard size hole-saw.

A drawer system including: a drawer cabinet and a drawer mounted in said cabinet for forward and backward travel relative thereto; a power supply socket mounted in said drawer or said cabinet for providing power to the interior of said drawer at all positions between open and closed, the power supply socket including a pair of electrical conductors in electrical communication with a pair of contact means, said pair of contact means including a first contact half on or secured to said cabinet and a complementary second contact half on or secured to said drawer for movement therewith, said power supply socket being in electrical communication with said second contact half for electrical current can flow from said first contact half to said second contact half at all positions of the drawer between open and closed, the first half being in electrical communication with a power supply.

A concealable power outlet assembly for bench mounting including: a housing for mounting fast with an underside of the bench; a power outlet sub-assembly slideably received by the housing and including an upper portion; a sensor responsive to operative force applied to the upper portion; an extension assembly including an electric actuator responsive to the sensor for sliding the power outlet sub-assembly relative to the housing in response to application of force to the upper portion to thereby bring said sub-assembly to an extended configuration or to a retracted configuration.

Certain exemplary embodiments can provide a cabinet. The cabinet comprises a base and a top. The base has a substantially planar base cap. The top is positioned on the substantially planar base cap of the base. The top has a substantially planar top cap. The top comprises a plurality of electrical outlets and a plurality of Universal Serial Bus ports.

A pop-up outlet includes a lower housing configured to receive one or more conductors. A middle housing is connected to the lower housing. An upper housing is moveably connected to the middle housing. An outlet is positioned in the upper housing having an outlet body and at least one receptacle opening. A raise/lower mechanism is configured to move the upper housing with respect to the middle housing from a first position where the outlet body is positioned in the middle housing to a second position where the outlet body is exposed to a user.

The present invention relates to a concealable apparatus assembly, comprising a support structure (5) supporting an apparatus (M) and rotatably receivable in an opening (1a) of a board or of a plate (1) so that the apparatus (M) is accessible through said opening (1a) from a first major surface of the board or plate (1) at a first angular position adopted by said support structure (5), and concealed for other angular positions adopted thereby, the support structure (5) having or supporting a flat surface (2) which remains flush with said first major surface of the board or plate (1) at a second angular position adopted by said support structure (5). The support structure (5) is also linearly receivable in said opening (1a) so that it can move linearly according to an approaching/distancing direction with respect to the board or plate (1).

A desk has legs at or near opposite lateral sides of the desk, feet, each mounted to a lower end of one of the legs and projecting from the leg to which it is mounted in at least a forward or rearward direction, a profile extending from one of the legs to the opposite one of the legs and mounted to upper end portions of the legs; and a desktop panel supported by the profile. The legs are coupled to the profile by twist lock connections. The twist lock connections are each locked or lockable against axial dislodgement by twisting of at least an end part of the leg relative to the profile about a center line of the leg. The profile projects from the legs in the rearward direction more than in the forward direction. A rearwardly projecting portion of the profile supporting the panel from below.

A pop-up outlet includes a lower housing configured to receive one or more conductors. A middle housing is connected to the lower housing. An upper housing is moveably connected to the middle housing. An outlet is positioned in the upper housing having an outlet body and at least one receptacle opening. A raise/lower mechanism is configured to move the upper housing with respect to the middle housing from a first position where the outlet body is positioned in the middle housing to a second position where the outlet body is exposed to a user.

An accessory includes: a fa?ade plate presenting an opening; an accessory support mounted to tilt through the opening between a lowered position in which it extends below the fa?ade plate, and a raised position in which a major portion thereof extends above the fa?ade plate; and a locking system including a locking arm movable between a locking position in which a blocking portion of the locking arm bears against a blocking surface of the accessory support, and a release position in which the blocking portion is spaced apart from the blocking surface, and an actuator button, causing each locking arm to move, which actuator button is tiltable about a tilt axis extending parallel to the mean plane of the fa?ade plate. Each locking arm pivots about a pivot axis perpendicular to the actuator button tilt axis, and a return mechanism continuously urges each locking arm into its locking position.
