Information display system
First Claim
1. An information display system comprising:
- a track system;
a mounting assembly comprising an index mechanism, the mounting assembly moveably coupled to the track system;
a plurality of display panels attached to the mounting assembly for both pivotal movement and translating movement with respect to the track system;
wherein the display panels are adapted to present information and the information can selectively be presented for display on the display panels by the pivotal movement or the translating movement of the display panels; and
wherein the index mechanism is operatively coupled to the plurality of display panels and is configured to retain the plurality of display panels in at least one of two discrete pivotal positions relative to the track system.

Abstract
A work environment provides a work area and a workstation. An information display system includes a track system adapted to attach to a mounting structure and display panels coupled to the track system for movement with respect to the mounting structure. The display panels may pivot and translate to selectively display information. The display panels may extend from the track system at a vertical elevation to provide clearance for a seated worker. Containers may be coupled to the track system for movement with respect to the mounting structure, with each of the containers adapted to include at least one display panel. The display panel may present information, which can selectively be presented for display by movement of the containers. The display panels may include a display board. A docking area may be positioned along the track system and configured to partially conceal the display panels. A utility threshold may be moved along a predefined path about the work area to selectively deliver utilities to a portion of the work area. The work environment may provide a work space that can be arranged or divided to include a work area within the available floor space. In the work area, the display panels may be moved from a first arrangement, which allows one worker to use substantially all available floor space, and a second arrangement, which allows multiple workers to share the available floor space so as to facilitate the utilization of the floor space by workers present in the work environment.
