A pre-assembled internal frame for a modular wall comprises a pair of vertical frame members. Each first flange of the vertical frame member has a pair of series of vertically arranged mounting openings, and each second flange has a single series. The vertical frame members are oriented to enable the frame to be arranged in an end to end junction with another frame with adjacent vertical frame members thereof abutting. This provides three of the series of vertically arranged openings on each side of the modular wall at the end to end junction. A fastener is positioned in a fastener receiving portion for fastening the horizontal frame member to the vertical frame members. The fastener receiving portions are recessed laterally inwardly from the first and second web sections for avoiding interference between adjacent fasteners when the frame is arranged in the end to end junction with another such frame.

A monitor arm assembly including a rotation limiter that includes movable tabs to set the rotation limits of the arms with respect to each other or other assemblies. The rotation limiter may include exterior ring activators and outer visual references for the set limitations. The monitor arm assembly also includes a plurality of slide tracks to allow the monitor attached the arm to take a plurality of lateral positions. The assembly may further include a connector to join adjacent slide tracks.

Multi-positional articulating ergonomic device with modular features

A chair comprises a seat pan member, a seat back member having a lumbar support member, a lumbar support assembly operatively connected to the lumbar support member and configured for moving the lumbar support member, with respect to the seat pan member and the seat back member, between at least a first position and a second position, and an actuator configured to operate the lumbar support assembly for movement of the lumbar support member between at least the first position and the second position. When the lumbar support member is in the second position, the lumbar support member is positioned forwardly, in a direction toward the seated user's lower back, relative to the seat back member so as to enable the user to be seated forwardly on the seat pan member while being engaged with the lumbar support member.

Chair with ergonomic motion features

The invention is a monitor arm assembly including a rotation limiter that includes movable tabs to set the rotation limits of the arms with respect to each other or other assemblies. The rotation limiter may include exterior ring activators and outer visual references for the set limitations. The monitor arm assembly also includes a plurality of slide tracks to allow the monitor attached to the arm to take a plurality of lateral positions. The assembly may further include a connector to join adjacent slide tracks. The monitor arm assembly may include a double slider arrangement where a first track slides within a second track. A plate for connection to a monitor arm or monitor bracket may slide within perimeter channels of the first track.

An air purifying system includes an air purifier mechanism, a controller, and a sensing device. The sensing device is configured to measure an air quality parameter of the air entering the housing via the air inlet to generate inlet air quality data, and to measure an air quality parameter of the purified air exiting the housing via the air outlet to generate outlet air quality data. The controller is configured to: receive the inlet air quality data and the outlet air quality data, compare the inlet air quality data and the outlet air quality data with their corresponding predetermined threshold ranges, and determine an action to be taken.

An assembly composing of a robust articulating armature with optionally interchangeable platform like components which incorporate and adapts the core armature assembly into a multitude of product configurations each having ergonomic benefits. The core articulating armature is configured to be a variably lift assisted and repositionable in a manner when combined with the other elements, configures to become a device with demonstrably beneficial features in each of its configurations. In some of the configurations, lift assistance and positional support is the primary feature, whereas in other configurations, flexing and returning back to a user designated set position becomes the primary feature. This application discloses a device with the flexibility to be configured in such a manner as to bring benefits to both the consumer and to the manufacture due to its uniquely modular and configurable elements which can be utilized to create a multitude of ergonomic product configurations.

A variable height platform system comprises a tabletop, a frame assembly for supporting the tabletop, a drive mechanism, a sensor, and a controller. The drive mechanism is configured to set a height of the frame assembly and the tabletop in an elevated position for use. The sensor is configured to sense position and movement of a user in a predetermined area including an area of the variable height platform system and an area proximate the variable height platform system. The controller is operatively connected to the sensor and drive mechanism. The controller is configured to operate the drive mechanism in response to the sensor sensing the position and movement of the user in the predetermined area.

Variable height platform system

The present disclosure is generally related to an apparatus having cutter elements for destroying articles such as paper sheets and a mechanism for separating at least a sheet from a stack in a tray. The separation mechanism can be activated by rotation of the cutter elements. In one embodiment, the separation mechanism is provided in the form of a helical mechanism configured for insertion into the stack and to receive separated sheets from the stack in between its space(s) as it is rotated. The separated sheets can fall via gravity into the shredder mechanism. Optionally, a paper feed mechanism can feed separated paper to the cutter elements. The tray can include an edge to assist in directing separated paper towards the cutter elements. One or more staple picking support mechanisms can also be provided to assist in separating sheets from a stapled set of pages.

Shredder with paper separation and advancement mechanism

A chair includes a seat pan member, a movement support frame, and at least two movement support members operatively connected to the seat pan member and the movement support frame. The at least two movement support members are configured to support the seat pan member in a floating manner for dynamic movement with respect to the movement support frame in at least one degree of freedom in a horizontal seating plane.

A variable height workstation system comprises a base, a variable height platform, a lift mechanism, a lower adjustable pivot assembly, and an upper adjustable pivot assembly. The base is configured to be mounted to a support surface. The lift mechanism is configured to move the variable height platform between a fully lowered and raised position. The lower adjustable pivot assembly is configured to be connected be to the base and the lift mechanism. The lower adjustable pivot assembly comprises a lower adjustable force regulator configured to adjust a force required to rotate a lower pivot member about its first vertical rotational axis. The upper adjustable pivot assembly is configured to be connected to the lift mechanism and the variable height platform. The upper adjustable pivot assembly comprises an upper adjustable force regulator configured to adjust a force required to rotate an upper pivot member about its second vertical rotational axis.

Multi-positional articulating platform system

A variable height platform system comprises a frame assembly, at least two leg assemblies, a drive mechanism, and a sensor. The frame assembly is configured to support and be removably connected to a tabletop. The drive mechanism is configured to either extend or retract each leg assembly in a direction substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis to set a height of the frame assembly in an elevated position for use. The sensor is configured to sense position and movement of a user in a predetermined area including an area of the variable height platform system and an area proximate the variable height platform system. The controller is operatively connected to the sensor and drive mechanism. The controller is configured to operate the drive mechanism in response to the sensor sensing the position and movement of the user in the predetermined area.
