  • Patent number: 9879435
    Abstract: A height-adjustable furniture piece has a wall mounting plate configured to be secured to an interior wall, a frame, a first actuator secured to the wall mounting plate and to a wall-facing surface of the frame, and a display mount secured to a room-facing surface of the frame. A worksurface is secured to and extends outwardly from a lower portion of the frame. A single height-adjustable leg is secured to the worksurface to support the furniture piece on a floor surface. The height-adjustable leg has a second actuator. The first actuator and the second actuator are adapted to operate to raise and lower the frame and the worksurface relative to the floor surface.
