Abstract: A unit of furniture, useful as a computer workstation such as a desk, cabinet, or armoire, includes a pullout unit that extends from the unit of furniture. The pullout unit includes a tray for supporting a computer keyboard and mouse. The tray may be covered by a movable lid that provides a first writing surface over the tray when covering the tray and a second writing surface when moved to a position for supporting copy referenced while using the keyboard. The pullout unit may also include an extension unit mounted adjacent to the tray and extendable to provide additional writing surface. The extension unit may include a drawer that extends toward the tray. The pullout unit may include a lid stop to cooperate with the unit of furniture to maintain the pullout unit in a stable extended position.
Abstract: Arrangements of modular furniture may be set in place and computer equipment may then be cabled together without moving any module of the arrangement. Modules include a base having file storage, a base having computer power controls, and a base supporting a desk. Each module may provide a wiring access opening on each side to define an aligned wiring passage through as many base modules as needed for a particular arrangement. Exposed wiring access openings may be disguised by a sliding plate that completes the trim of the base, covers the opening, and conceals the fact that an opening exists.
