  • Publication number: 20070064096
    Abstract: A roll over audio visual control center (“roll over platform”) designed to be embedded for use within the top of a conference table to display, in an inverted position, a power or communications outlet for use on top of the conference table or to hide, in a regular position, the power or communications outlet under the conference table when not in use. The roll over platform consists of two main parts: a housing and a control center. The housing is rectangular in shape and forms a hollow center. The control center approximates the rectangular shape of the housing and is secured within the hollow center of the housing by a hinge. The hinge enables the rotation of the control center within the hollow center of the housing. The roll over platform further consists of a means to secure the control center to the housing to enable the regular and inverted positions of the control center with respect to the housing.

    Abstract: A roll over audio platform designed to be embedded for use within the top of a conference table to display a microphone or other audio means for use on top of the conference table or hide the microphone or other audio means under the conference table when not in use. The platform consists of two main parts: a collar and a support base. The collar has a geometric shape and forms a hollow center. The support base approximates the geometric shape of the collar and is secured within the hollow center of the collar by a hinge. The hinge enables 180° rotation of the support base within the hollow center of the collar. Audio means are mounted to the bottom surface of the support base and the top surface coordinates with the conference tabletop. When not in use the support base is pivoted to a non-use static position the top surface coplanar with the conference table surface. To use the audio means, the support base is pivoted to its use position bringing the audio means to the tabletop surface.
