Abstract: A table or desk is provided with a horizontally enlarged worksurface, and a bracket-supported rear panel arrangement can be readily mounted to a project upwardly along a rear edge of the worksurface. The panel arrangement includes a pair of upright brackets which have C-shaped lower parts which create a clamping engagement around the rear edge of the worksurface so that special constructional features on the worksurface are not required. The brackets have upright parts which project upwardly and, along rear vertical edges thereof, have attachment structure for permitting an upright panel to be attached thereto, which panel is then disposed directly adjacent the rear edge of the worksurface and projects upwardly and longitudinally thereof. The bracket includes first and second attachment structures associated therewith, with one attachment structure permitting a grid-like panel to be mounted thereon.

Abstract: A table having a horizontally enlarged worksurface, and a pair of leg assemblies fixed to the worksurface directly at the opposite end edges thereof and projecting downwardly for engagement with a floor. Each leg assembly includes an upright leg member disposed directly at the rear corner of the worksurface, and at its lower end this leg is fixed to a horizontally elongate foot which projects forwardly for engagement with the floor. The leg adjacent its upper end has a support bracket which projects forwardly directly under and fixedly secured to the worksurface in close proximity to the end edge thereof. The outer side surfaces of the leg and base are preferably vertically flat and substantially vertically coplanar, and are also substantially vertically coplanar with the end edge of the table. A cable-accommodating trough is fixed to and extends horizontally between the legs in downwardly spaced relation from the rear edge of the worksurface.

Abstract: A freestanding table having a worksurface supported on height-adjustable legs, each having a height-adjusting mechanism. These mechanisms are simultaneously driven through a driving element such as an endless chain driven by a driving sprocket disposed adjacent the underside of the worksurface. The driving sprocket is nonrotatably connected to a rotatable hub supported in a recess in the worksurface, which recess also accommodates a foldable crank. The crank when in a folded and stored position is disposed in the recess so as to be substantially flush with the upper surface of the worksurface. The crank is pivotally joined about a first axis to an intermediate link which in turn is pivotally joined about a second axis to a rotatable hub so that the crank can be pivoted upwardly through an angle of about 180.degree. so as to be disposed above the worksurface to permit manual gripping and hence rotation thereof when height adjustment is desired.
