WORKSPACE SYSTEM AND COMPONENTS AND METHOD FOR THE USE THEREOF

A cart assembly including a frame having a horizontal worksurface, a plurality of vertical support members extending upwardly from the horizontal worksurface and an upper rail spaced above the horizontal worksurface and connected to the vertical support members. The rail defines an opening at one end thereof. A screen is moveable between at least first and second positions. The screen is moveable through the opening and is supported in an interior space of the frame in the first position. The screen is disposed outside the interior space in the second position.

Workspace system and components and method for the use thereof

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.

Privacy screen apparatus method of adjusting same

A privacy screen attachment apparatus can include a screen body having a plurality of elongated rungs spaced apart from each other. The rungs can be configured to facilitate releaseable attachment to screen bodies and other structures to allow for an adjustment in the extent to which a visible barrier is provided. Structures that can be connected to the rungs can also permit other functionality (e.g. attachment of a tackable surface, dry erase board, etc.) in addition to adjusting the visible barrier provided by the body of the privacy screen apparatus. A connection mechanism can be provided to facilitate a releasable attachment of such structures to the rungs without requiring use of any mechanical tools. Embodiments of the connection mechanism can be configured to also help prevent accidental disconnection to avoid accidents that could result in damage to the privacy screen apparatus or other objects.

IMPROVED WORKBENCH
