Abstract

PURPOSE: To provide another work plate, which is added to a side of a main table, at a distance easily reachable from a user, by providing slant edge of a specified length to adjoin the extension plate at least at one corner of the two front corners of the main table plate. CONSTITUTION: A table plate 2 had a slant edge 44 of 30cm or longer at the left front, making an angle of 135 deg. against a front line 46 of the table plate. Correspondingly, a hollow beam 24 makes 135 deg. angle. That is, the free end of the hollow beam projects at right angle from under the slant edge 44. A slant edge can also be provided at the right side of the table plate as needed. An essentially round extension plate 50 may be supported by two joint members 18 and the hollow beam 22 at the front of the hollow beam 24 by providing two legs 7 interconnected with short straight hollow beam 22 at the left side. When a triangular extension plate 59 is joined at the slant edge 44, an essentially rectangular table plate can be obtained.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a table-based office workstation.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Conventional workstations include: a) a height-adjustable table; b) an underframe carrying the table with a cable channel; c) an extension of the table; and d) an extension of the table. Some types have a through hole provided in the table plate for attaching an additional member that can be installed above and for guiding the cable.

This kind of workstation is EP-A2-1239
72.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention An object of the present invention is to provide a structure in which another work plate attached to the side of the table board protrudes not only to the side but also to the front so that the user's hand can fully reach the work plate. , you need to configure your office workstation. In this case, the two-car frame must be easily expandable in a short time and care must be taken to ensure that the cables can be guided very simply through the respective structural elements, so that the cable guide can be quickly changed during modification.

If necessary, the underframe may include supplementary parts (e.g. storage racks,
etc.), it must be possible to connect directly to a superstructure that can carry the load.

Electrical equipment that rests on the tabletop must be able to be connected to the power supply by very short cables located on the tabletop, and the cables must not hang down over the edges of the tabletop.

Concepts such as "front", "rear", "above", "below", etc. always refer to the position of the workstation in use as seen from the user sitting in front of the table top.

Means for Solving the Problems and Actions/Effects The above objects are achieved by the invention set forth in claim 1. That is, according to the present invention.

e) The underframe has a rectangular hollow coupling member (Ill, 160) with a relatively large through-opening in the wall, which coupling member is horizontally aligned with the vertical column (8°20) in the position of use; r) the table plate (2,2') is fitted with an extension plate (50) at at least one of its front corners; , 59, 60, etc.).
It is characterized by a beveled edge (44) with a length of 0 cm.

Note that in the present application, a reference numeral to a drawing is attached to a claim in order to facilitate understanding, but this is not necessarily intended to limit the embodiment to the illustrated embodiment.

A beveled edge with a length of at least 30 cm (usually about 45 cm) serves to add another plate at the same height to create a continuous working surface, in which case the extension The plates project laterally and forwardly.

Large, hollow coupling members with open holes, associated struts and hollow beams facilitate modification and disassembly of the workstation and cable guidance.

Dependent; Summary of Claims The sloping edge may be configured to form an angle of approximately 135° with respect to the leading edge of the table plate (claim 2), thus providing a position of the extension plate suitable for the user.

The free end of the hollow beam projects at right angles below the sloped edge, and one of the hollow beams can be bent corresponding to the sloped edge so that it can support another extension member.
It is preferred if, in the underframe, the hollow beams form the rear and lateral connections between the columns. On the other hand, the cable channel passes through the hollow beam and the connecting member,
It is preferred, however, if it extends alongside the column, but between said column and the associated sheet metal cover (claim 10 et al.).

so that users can easily access cable channels.
The vertical wall of the hollow beam can be configured as a cover that can be pivoted around a horizontal axis (claim 7).

In this case it is preferred if the vertical walls form a cover over the entire height of the bulge. In this case, the cover can be constructed so as to be pivotable about a two-part hinge, one hinge part of said hinge being integral with the cover and another hinge part forming the main part of the hollow beam. (claim 8).

Each coupling member has a substantially square cross-section when viewed in a horizontal plane, while the frame-like coupling plate serves to fix the coupling member at the end of the hollow beam, and the cover plate serves to secure the coupling member to the end of the hollow beam. Claim 9) characterized by a free surface of. The coupling member is inclined at 45° with respect to its side wall and the plate, i.e.
It can have corner surfaces that serve to secure the extension plate that joins the hollow beam and the cover plate. In this case, the battens for attaching the cover plates can be arranged to be shifted in the height direction so that the two cover plates or extension plates added to the corner close the corner surface (Claim 11).

According to another embodiment, the coupling member is connected to each member.

i.e. the bottom plate, the cover plate and the side wall inserted between them, i.e. the closed side wall and/or item 13).

A height adjustment device can be mounted above the coupling member, the height adjustment device having a portion that engages with one of the openings of the table plate. The height adjustment device can furthermore provide the possibility of inserting and fixing the upper structure into the opening of the table board. In this case, even if the height of the table board is changed, the height position of the upper structure remains unchanged.

] The support arm of the section structure may be upright.

Alternatively, it may have a 1/4 arc shape, that is, extend rearward and upward from the opening of the table plate. The superstructure can hold a large number of additional members (claims 23 and 24).

Embodiments of the invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS FIG. 1 shows an office workstation having a table board 2, an underframe 6 including a lower cabinet 4 and a leg 7, and a superstructure 10 including a rearwardly curved support arm 12. Between the upper ends of the two support arms 12 are mounted support members 13 in the form of two parallel pipes 14 capable of carrying a viewing wall 16.

As shown in detail in FIG. 2, the joint shrine 18 consists of a simple support 8 in the form of a pipe with a rectangular cross section forming a support member (or U-shaped support 20) for one leg 7, and a straight hollow beam 22. and,
The bent hollow beam 24 is connected.

The lower ends of the legs 7 are interconnected by pipes 21. The leftmost coupling member 18 in FIG. 2 can be supplemented with a short hollow beam 23 which is coupled to the wall by a wall mounting plate 26.

Since the connecting member 18 has a substantially square horizontal cross section, hollow beams 22, 23, 24 having the same cross section can be added over the entire surface. The upper part of the coupling member is provided with a relatively large opening, which serves to pass the cable and to receive the height adjustment device of the table board 2. table board 2
In this case, a cylindrical opening 28 is provided at a position corresponding to the opening of both rear coupling members 18 in FIG. 2 (FIG. 1). Cables can be led through the openings 28 to equipment (eg telephones, calculators) resting on the tabletop. When the support arm 12 is not installed, the opening 28 is connected to the cable passageway 2.
7' is closed with a cover disc 27 (FIG. 19). Each cover disk is rotatably held by an elastic annular member 29 (FIG. 20) that presses against the outer edge of the disk. The annular member has a portion 29 which closes the cable passage from below in the corresponding rotational position when the cable is not allowed to pass through.
′. An annular member 29 is mounted within opening 28 and above a height adjustment device (FIG. 11), which will be described below.

The support arm 12 is U-shaped in cross section (the first,
21), can be closed to the cable channel by means of a curved metal plate cover 38. When the support arm 12 is pushed in, the cable can be introduced into the support arm via the opening 28 and further guided onto the table board.

A batten (not shown in FIG. 2) at the lower end of the support arm 12 can engage the coupling member 18 via a height adjustment device and thus be fixed to the frame. Regardless of changes in the height position of the table board 2, the support arm and the members supported by the support arm maintain their height positions unchanged. The lower end of the support arm is provided with a cover disc which closes the opening 28 in the table plate.

Horizontal cable channels are hollow beams 22.23°24
is formed from the internal space of and continues via the coupling member 18. The strut 8 of the leg 7 has a flat rectangular cross section (
(See Figure 1.1). A vertical cable channel is formed by fitting the cut edges of two trough-like sheet metal covers 32 into the vertical short sides of the struts 8. That is, between the column and the metal plate cover.

Two hollow spaces are formed for receiving cables.

The U-shaped column 20 can be closed by two metal plate covers 34 (only the right-hand cover is shown) with a flat main surface and a curved U-shaped folded edge 36. The outer edge of the trailing edge can be hinged to the narrow back surface of the column 20, and the outer edge of the leading edge can be snapped into the narrow front surface of the column. This results in a cable cabinet that can accommodate multiple plug boxes and a large amount of cable remnants (unnecessary parts of cables that are too long).

The connecting member 18 serves not only to connect the hollow beam to the column, but also to hold the upwardly projecting upper leg 42 for the storage platform 45 (FIG. 1). This upper leg can be formed similarly to the nine leg 7, but with a lower height.

The table board 2 has an inclined edge 44 on the left front part. This beveled edge makes an angle of 135" with respect to the front edge 46 of the table plate. Correspondingly, the central beam 24 also has the same <135'
Draw the angle. That is, the free end of the hollow beam has an inclined edge 4
4 protrudes at a right angle from below (see Figure 1). A beveled edge can be provided on the right side of the table board instead of or in addition to the beveled edge of FIG. In this case, this sloped edge is, of course.

It is shorter than the sloping edge in Figure 1. A typical length of the beveled edge is about 45 cm.

FIG. 3.4 shows another embodiment using a table plate with an inclined edge 44 on the left side and a bent hollow beam 24. In the case of FIG. 3, on the left side there are two legs 7 connected to each other by a short straight hollow beam 22. The front left end of the hollow beam 24, the two joints 4-18 and the hollow beam 22
serves to support an essentially circular extension plate 50.

In the case of FIG. 4, only one leg 7 is provided on the outside, so that one of the connecting members 18 is arranged in a floating manner between the hollow beams.

As shown in FIG. 5, an essentially rectangular table board is obtained by joining a generally triangular extension plate 59 to the beveled edge 44.

Another embodiment is shown in FIG. On the inclined edge 44.

An essentially square extension plate 60 is the joint. In the rear space between the rear edge of the extension plate 60 and the left side edge of the table board 2, there is an extension plate 6 whose edge facing the user forms the same angle of <135°, while the rear edge is rounded.

The open faces (recesses 11j) of the support arms (of U-shaped cross section) face each other and are each closed with a metal plate cover 49.

A support member 13 consisting of a hollow beam 52 shown in FIG. 10 (cross-sectional view) and FIG. 9 (perspective view) is installed between the upper ends of both support arms 48. This hollow beam has a slit 53 open to the front, which serves for the introduction of the cable. The lower part inside this hollow beam serves as a cable channel 54. This hollow beam has a back wall 57 made of aluminum or an aluminum alloy. The upper hollow space of the hollow beam 52 is defined by a horizontal plate 73.

This plate is constructed in one piece with an upwardly open tubular portion 74 receiving at its end a self-tapping screw serving to secure the hollow beam 52 between the support arms 48. The ends of the hollow beam 52 engage the upper ends of both support arms 48 . Opening at the end of wall 5B of hollow beam 52 (not shown)
serves to introduce the cable into the hollow beam 52 through the support arm 48. The support arm 48 is 1. Its U-shaped cross section grips the ends of the hollow beam 52, thus preventing it from rotating about its horizontal axis.

The hollow beam 52 is equipped with a wide variety of additional members (not shown in the drawings).
