Abstract
A tablet assembly for use in a space partially defined by a wall structure having a substantially planar wall surface, the assembly comprising a first coupler supported by the wall structure, a tablet support arm assembly having a support arm length dimension between proximal and distal ends, the proximal end mounted to the first coupler adjacent the planar wall surface for rotation about a first vertical axis through a first range of motion between first and second first-axis limit positions, the arm assembly extending from the planar wall surface to form acute angles with the planar wall surface in each of the first and second first-axis limit positions and a tablet member forming top and bottom surfaces and having a side edge, the tablet member supported at the distal end of the arm for rotation about a second vertical axis through a second range of motion between first and second second-axis limit positions, wherein the limit positions limit the tablet member to positions in which the side edge of the tablet member is constrained from contacting the planar wall surface.
