  • Publication number: 20200221864
    Abstract: In one example, a height adjustable desktop system is described that can include a work surface, a foot assembly and a linkage assembly that adjustably connects the work surface to the foot assembly allowing vertical adjustment of the work surface. The linkage assembly can include a pair of adjustment assemblies, each having a transverse linkage that maintains the work surface in a horizontal orientation as the work surface is elevated or lowered. A biasing mechanism, such as an extension spring or a torsion spring, biases the work surface toward the elevated position.

  • Patent number: 10602840
    Abstract: A height adjustable table can include a plurality of legs, a lower portion, a worksurface, a height adjustable surface, and a linkage. The worksurface can be supported by the plurality of legs and can include a fixed surface and a height adjustable surface. The fixed surface can be secured to at least one of the lower portion and the plurality of legs, and the fixed surface can define a recessed portion. The height adjustable surface can be movable between a raised position and a lowered position so that the height-adjustable surface retracts into the recessed portion when in the lowered position so that the height adjustable surface is coplanar with the fixed surface. The linkage can be configured to move the height adjustable surface between the lowered position and the raised position so that the height adjustable surface remains parallel to the fixed surface.

  • Patent number: 10476285
    Abstract: A tablet storage device includes a module on a cart frame that includes a wheeled base. A cart module defines a selectively accessible interior space having multiple storage slots within the interior space for holding tablets. In some cases a tablet storage device holds multiple tablets using two or more modules in a stacked arrangement on a wheeled base. Each module can hold a portion of the multiple tablets within storage slots within an interior space inside the module. The storage slots may have connectors for connecting to tablets, and the cart frame can have a network connection system that is adapted to provide a network connection for each tablet that is connected to one of the connectors. The cart frame may also have a power supply system for charging each tablet that is connected to one of the connectors.

  • Patent number: 10267451
    Abstract: The invention includes a display positioning assembly comprising a support, a display supported by the support, and a balance mechanism carried by the display and operatively connected to the support. The invention also includes an article for selectively exposing a display comprising a generally planar support surface having a first side and a second side opposite the first side. A balance mechanism operatively connected to a display may be positionable between a storage position proximate the first side of the generally planar support surface and an exposed position proximate the second side of the generally planar support surface. The invention also includes an assembly for arresting the free fall of an object. The assembly may comprise an outer slide in sliding or rolling engagement with an inner slide, and a brake comprising at least one pivot member may be coupled to the inner slide.
