Abstract

A flat panel workstation system that may be retrofitted into an existing desktop/work surface for supporting and pivoting a flat panel display such as a liquid crystal display (LCD) from a closed position to an open, viewable position in front of a user. The system includes a sliding keyboard and mouse platform mounted underneath the front edge of the desk top/work surface and which automatically pivot a support panel atop the work surface (and attached flat panel display) to an upright position or closed flush position upon extension/retraction of the keyboard and mouse platform. The method of retrofitting the system includes, among others, the following steps; (1) removing, or cutting out, a section of a desk top to create a rectangular hole, (2) installing the support panel assembly in the rectangular hole, (3) attaching the sliding keyboard and mouse platform and damper assemblies to the underside of the desk top and the support panel assembly, and (4) attaching the flat panel display to the support panel assembly.
