First Claim
Patent Images
1. A computer workstation comprising:
- a base;
a worksurface supported by said base and comprising a front leading edge moveable a first distance in a fore-and-aft direction between first and second worksurface positions, wherein said front leading edge is cantilevered forwardly in said second worksurface position such that at least a center portion of said front leading edge does not overlie said base when said worksurface is in said second worksurface position;
a monitor support coupled to said worksurface, wherein at least one of said worksurface and said monitor support is automatically moveable in response to a movement of the other of said worksurface and said monitor support, wherein said monitor support is automatically moveable a second distance in said fore-and-aft direction between first and second monitor positions in response to said front leading edge of said worksurface being moved said first distance between said first and second worksurface positions, wherein said second distance is greater than said first distance, and wherein said monitor support is positioned rearwardly of said front leading edge of said worksurface as said front leading edge of said worksurface is moved between said first and second worksurface positions, and wherein said monitor support does not overlie said front leading edge of said worksurface as said monitor support is moved between said first and second monitor positions.

Abstract
A computer workstation includes a worksurface moveable a first distance between first and second worksurface positions and a monitor support coupled to the worksurface. At least one of the worksurface and the monitor support is automatically moveable in response to a movement of the other of the worksurface and the monitor support. The monitor support is moveable a second distance between first and second monitor positions as the worksurface is moved the first distance between the first and second worksurface positions, wherein the second distance is greater than the first distance. A method of adjusting the position of a monitor support on a computer workstation is also provided.

18. A computer workstation comprising:
-
a worksurface moveable a first distance in a fore-and-aft direction between first and second worksurface positions, wherein a support surface of said worksurface forms an angle between about 5 and 45 degrees with a horizontal plane; a monitor support coupled to said worksurface, wherein at least one of said worksurface and said monitor support is automatically moveable in response to a movement of the other of said worksurface and said monitor support, wherein said monitor support is automatically moveable a second distance in said fore-and-aft direction between first and second monitor positions in response to said worksurface being moved said first distance between said first and second worksurface positions, wherein said second distance is greater than said first distance; and a base having an upper surface formed at substantially said angle with said horizontal plane, wherein said base supports said worksurface on said upper surface.

19. A computer workstation comprising:
-
a worksurface moveable a first distance in a fore-and-aft direction between first and second worksurface positions; a monitor support coupled to said worksurface, wherein at least one of said worksurface and said monitor support is automatically moveable in response to a movement of the other of said worksurface and said monitor support, wherein said monitor support is automatically moveable a second distance in said fore-and-aft direction between first and second monitor positions in response to said worksurface being moved said first distance between said first and second worksurface positions, wherein said second distance is greater than said first distance, and wherein said monitor support is supported by a four bar linkage. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21, 22)
