Abstract: Support means for a computer monitor and/or central processing unit and/or computer keyboard in furniture in which the monitor will be visible through a transparent panel in a working surface, in which the support means includes a single beam which can be attached to and detached from legs of a table, extending transversely between the legs when attached. Suspending links can be attached to and detached from the beam to support platforms for the monitor to and/or the CPU The keyboard is connected by links to the platform for the monitor so that when the keyboard support is pulled out for use the monitor is moved into an operative position from an inoperative position in which it is out of the way.

Abstract: An assembly for mounting a keyboard includes first and second members each having a clamping device, and mounting means for mounting the members for converging/diverging movements for removably placing the clamping devices in clamping engagement with a keyboard when placed therebetween. The mounting means includes a first part fixed to one of the members, a second part fixed to the other of the members, wherein the first part defines an opening for slidably supporting the second part, and thus the other of the members for converging/diverging movements, a locking device for releasably restraining manually induced diverging movement, while freely permitting convergent movement, of the members, and means for adjustably supporting an auxiliary art device support, such as a mouse support.
Abstract: A keyboard support arrangement which includes both a main support pad for supporting a computer keyboard and an auxiliary support pad for supporting a computer mouse. The auxiliary pad is removably and angularly positionable adjacent either side of the main keyboard pad to provide increased convenience and flexibility of use. The auxiliary mouse pad is totally separable from the main keyboard pad, and a multi-positionable connecting structure enables the auxiliary pad to be positioned relative to the main keyboard pad at one of a plurality of angular positions.

Abstract: An operator workstation has a worksurface and left and right upper support members extending upward from the worksurface. Multiple flat-panel display units are mounted between the support members above the level of the worksurface. The displays are mounted above one another, between the support members. Lower support members support the workstation in connection with a base mounted between the lower support members. The base has a substantially triangular cross-section, while the lower support members have a substantially triangular shape.
