Storage unit
First Claim
1. A reconfigurable storage unit for use in a work environment and for passing utilities for at least one of a voice signal, a power signal or a data signal comprising:
- a base assembly;
a fixed shelf assembly including a shelf having a shelf aperture and mounted upon the base assembly;
a top assembly mounted upon the fixed shelf assembly;
an upper vertical partition assembly installed between the fixed shelf assembly and the top assembly dividing an upper space between the fixed shelf assembly and the top assembly into a first upper section and a second upper section;
a lower vertical partition assembly installed between the base assembly and the fixed shelf assembly dividing a lower space between the base assembly and the fixed shelf assembly into a first lower section and a second lower section; and
a vertical passage provided within the upper vertical partition assembly and the lower vertical partition assembly and in communication with the shelf aperture so that utilities may be passed from the top assembly to the base assembly from at least one of the first upper section or the second upper section to at least one of the first lower section or the second lower section.

Abstract
A storage unit for use in a work environment includes a base assembly, a top assembly mounted upon the base assembly, and a vertical partition assembly installed between the base assembly and the top assembly dividing a space therebetween into a first section and a second section. The vertical partition assembly may provide a vertical passage so that utilities may be passed between the top assembly to the base assembly and between the first section and the second section. A fixed shelf assembly with an upper vertical partition assembly installed between the fixed shelf assembly and the top assembly may divide an upper space between the fixed shelf assembly and the top assembly into a first upper section and a second upper section. A lower vertical partition assembly is installed between the base and the fixed shelf assembly may divide a lower space between the base assembly and the fixed shelf assembly into a first lower section and a second lower section. A vertical passage may be provided by the top vertical partition assembly and the bottom vertical partition assembly (and through a shelf aperture in the fixed shelf assembly) so that utilities may be passed from the top assembly to the base assembly. The utilities may include any signal, such as voice, power or data. The storage unit may be provided with at least one exterior panel adapted for mounting between the base assembly and the top assembly.

13. A storage unit for use in a work environment providing for routine of cables for at least one of a voice signal, a power signal or a data signal comprising:
-
a base assembly; a top assembly mounted upon the base assembly; a vertical partition installed between the base assembly and the top assembly dividing a space between the base assembly and the top assembly into a first section and a second section; a fixed shelf assembly including a shelf having a shelf aperture and installed between the base assembly and the top assembly dividing the first section into a first upper section and a first lower section and dividing the second section into a second upper section and a second lower section; and a vertical passage provided within the vertical partition assembly;
wherein the vertical passage provides at least one outlet into the first section and at least one outlet into the second section so that cables may be passed through the vertical passage between the top assembly and the base assembly and between the first section and the second section. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49)

50. A reconfigurable storage unit for use in a work environment and for routing cables for utilities for at least one of a voice signal, a power signal or a data signal comprising:
-
a base assembly; a top assembly mounted upon the base assembly; a vertical partition assembly installed between the base assembly and the top assembly dividing a space between the base assembly and the top assembly into a first section and a second section; a vertical passage provided by the vertical partition assembly so that utilities may be passed between the top assembly to the base assembly and between the first section and the second section; and a cover attachable to the vertical partition assembly so that when the cover is installed the vertical passage is at least partially concealed; wherein the vertical partition assembly includes a plurality of bracket tabs each having a base and a lateral member attached to the base, and projecting at least partially into the vertical passage and providing a surface so that cables may be selectively routed into and out of the vertical passage. - View Dependent Claims (51, 52, 53, 54, 55)
