Abstract: A frame member, as is used for office and other furniture, such as desks, chairs and other components, is formed from a length of rigid tubing, of polygonal cross-section, and bent on a diagonal. The tube is bent by bending around an arcuate bending member having a peripheral groove which is a cross-section corresponding to about half the cross-section of the tube. The tube is gripped against the periphery of the arcuate bending member, by a gripping member, the bending member and gripping member moving about an axis to bend the tube. The tube is held in contact with the arcuate bending member by an elongate bending member which is slidingly supported on a fixed base and moves with the tube over the fixed base as bending progresses. The tube is supported against collapse by a stationary internal non-deformable member.

Abstract: There is disclosed a device having a working surface for a computer mouse which comprises: a supporting structure having a forward end; a rear end; a pair of sides; a generally planar top working surface; and a bottom surface adapted for engagement with a supporting surface. The planar top working surface is adapted to receive a mouse and extends from the forward end to the rear end in an upwardly inclined orientation. A wrist/palm support member is provided in cooperative engagement with the forward end.

Abstract: An adjustable keyboard support, for holding keyboards for computer terminals, drawing boards, digitalizing pads and similar items, comprising a support frame which is pivotally mounted below the top surface of a terminal support stand. The support frame has spaced extendable and retractable side members, each side member having a rear member and front member. Each front member is slidably mounted on a rear member. Each rear member is pivotally attached at its rear end to the terminal support stand. A lever extends between a forward part of the terminal support stand and an intermediate position on a forward member, for each side member. Extension of the support frame swings the levers around and forward, the front members first moving down further extension causing the front member to move up as continued swinging of the levers occurs. In a further embodiment, the support provides a moveable keyboard carriage.
