Abstract
A band brake suitable for use with height adjustable tables and configured to selectively grip and release a lift band utilized by the table's height adjusting mechanism to raise and lower the work surface. The band brake may include an eccentric roller configured to move between a band-engaged position and a band-disengaged position. A release lever is connected to the eccentric roller and configured to transition the eccentric roller between the band-engaged and the band-disengaged positions. A linkage system is connected between the brake housing and the release lever, whereby the linkage system counteracts torque created by a release spring operating on the release lever.
