  • Patent number: 10045627
    Abstract: A worksurface assembly includes a support having a first mounting portion defining a first pivot axis and a second mounting portion defining a second pivot axis, with the second mounting portion spaced above the first mounting portion. The first and second pivot axes are spaced apart. A pivot member is pivotally coupled to the second mounting portion and is pivotable relative to the support about the second pivot axis. A worksurface is rotatably coupled to the pivot member about a third pivot axis, which is spaced apart from the second pivot axis. The worksurface overlies the second and third pivot axes in all positions. The worksurface may be associated with a body support assembly. Methods of using and assembling the worksurface assembly are also provided.
