FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The invention relates to an electrically lifted and tilted computer desk and office desk thereof which can be used separately or in combination using a double-rail stem and can be lifted stably with low noise and great bearing power.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

With the generalization of digital homes and many companies participating in remote location work life, the household life of people are going through enormous changes, wherein the incorporation of digital automation design in modern homes is the outstanding advantage. In these household environments, the desk has become incorporated into human lives with multiple functions. Various drawbacks to existing adjustable height desks include the lack of variability in single angled desks which cannot be adjusted in height and angle to suit persons of various sizes, limited capabilities for storage and storing, and a general immobility of the desk apparatus itself (NAME) discloses such desktop device in order to solve the aforementioned problems.

Many companies are now allowing workers to work from home which results in a large change in the home to accommodate workers. Many workers are adjusting their home offices to incorporate digital automation design to improve their health and productivity. In these household work environments, the work desk has become incorporated into human lives with multiple functions. However, existing work desks have various drawbacks including the lack of range in the adjustable height and a lack of variability in desktop angle. These fixed angle desktops cannot be adjusted in both the desired height and angle over a wide range to suit people of various sizes, limited capabilities. These desks may also be large and difficult to store when the user is not working. What is needed is a design that is adjustable in both a wide range of lift and tilt angles that can also be configured to occupy a small area for storage.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

An objective of the present invention to provide a desk which is capable of solving the limitations of other adjustable height desks. The inventive desk can both tilt and raise the desktop over a wide range of movements. In some embodiments, the desktop of the desk may tilt from 0 degrees (horizontal) to 60 degrees (angled downward) and a desktop height can be variable between 2 to 4.5 feet from the floor surface. With the desktop angled downward, the desk can occupy and be stored on less floor space than a desk with a horizontal desktop.

In an embodiment, the inventive desk can have: a desktop, tilt plates coupled to the desktop, and vertical members that support the desktop. The desktop can be moved vertically with vertical actuators and the angle of the desktop can be adjusted with tilt actuators. The vertical members can each have an elongated vertical groove and the tilt plates can each have bears that slide within the elongated vertical grooves. The bearings slide vertically within the grooves in the vertical members allowing the desktop to be smoothly lowered and raised with low friction. The bearings also allow the angle of the desktop can be smoothly adjusted with low friction.

The desk can also have an upper shelf unit that may be attached to the grooves of the vertical members above the desktop. In a first configuration, the upper shelf unit may move vertically with the desktop. In a second configuration, the upper shelf unit may be locked in place at a desired vertical position on the vertical members.

The desk may be stored easier by the desktop's ability to be angled downward at 45 degrees or more. At this lowered angle the desk occupies less floor area and therefore allows for more compact storage. The foregoing objectives, features, functions, and advantages of the present invention will be more readily understood upon a thoughtful deliberation of the following detailed description of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings.

With reference to FIG. 1, an embodiment of the inventive desk 100 is illustrated. The inventive desk 100 comprises: an adjustable desk top 101, a first tilt plate 107, a second tilt plate 109, a first vertical member 103, a second vertical member 105, a first vertical actuator 111, a second vertical actuator 113, a first tilt actuator 115, and a second tilt actuator 117. The first vertical member 103 is coupled to the first tilt plate 107 at a first pivot point in first vertical member 151 on a rear portion of the first tilt plate 107 and the second vertical member 105 is coupled to the second tilt plate 109 on a rear portion of the second tilt plate 109. The first vertical actuator 111 is coupled to the first tilt plate 107 and the second vertical actuator 113 is coupled to the second tilt plate 109. The first vertical actuator 111 and the second vertical actuator 113 are extendable and retractable to move the first tilt plate 107, the second tilt plate 109, and the desk top 101 vertically. The first tilt actuator 115 is coupled to a front portion of the first tilt plate 107 and the second tilt actuator 117 coupled to a front portion of the second tilt plate 109. The first tilt actuator 115 and the second tilt actuator 117 are also extendable and retractable to change the tilt angle of the first tilt plate 107, the second tilt plate 109, and the desk top 101.

The first vertical actuator 111, the second vertical actuator 113, the first tilt actuator 115, and the second tilt actuator 117 can be coupled to a control unit 141 that can have a user interface. A user can input commands into the user interface so that the control unit 141 can control the movements of the first vertical actuator 111, the second vertical actuator 113, the first tilt actuator 115, and the second tilt actuator 117 which can cause the desktop 101 to move to the desired height and tilt angle.

In some embodiments, the desk 100 can have one or more planar shelves 121, 122. In the illustrated embodiment, an upper shelf assembly can have an upper shelf 121, a lower shelf 122, a first shelf side plate 123, a second shelf side plate 125 and an upper transverse member 126. The upper shelf assembly can be attached to the first vertical member 103 and the second vertical member 105. The upper shelf 121 and the lower shelf 122 can be planar structures that are horizontally oriented and extend across the width of the desk 100. The ends of the upper shelf 121 and the lower shelf 122 can be coupled between the first shelf side plate 123 and the second shelf side plate 125.

The bottoms of the first shelf side plate 123 and the second shelf side plate 125 can rest on a top surface of the desktop 101 and/or the first tilt plate 107 and the second tilt plate 109. In a first configuration, the upper shelf assembly can move vertically with the desk top 100 when the first vertical actuator 111 and the second vertical actuator 113 are extended or retracted. In a second configuration, a locking mechanism can be used to secure the upper shelf assembly to the first vertical member 103 and the second vertical member 105. Thus, the upper shelf assembly can remain in a fixed vertical position relative to the first vertical member 103 and the second vertical member 105 while the desk top 100 moves when the first vertical actuator 111 and the second vertical actuator 113 are extended or retracted.

In some embodiments, the desk 100 can have a bottom shelf 133 that can be mounted between the bottom portions of the first vertical member 103 and the second vertical member 105. The bottom shelf 133 can be a horizontally oriented planar structure. The lower portion of the desk 100 can also have a lower transverse member 135 that is planar and vertically oriented. The lower transverse member 135 can also be mounted between the bottom portions of the first vertical member 103 and the second vertical member 105.

In some embodiments, the desk 100 can have a plurality of wheels 127, 129, 131, 132 that allow the desk 100 to be easily moved across a floor. The wheels 127, 129, 131, 132 can be free rotating and locking so that the desk 100 can be manually moved to a desired position and then the wheels 127, 129, 131, 132 can be locked to prevent rotation so that the desk 100 remains in place. Alternatively, the wheels 127, 129, 131, 132 can be coupled to motors 137 that can be controlled by a control unit 141 to move the desk 100 to a desired location.

With reference to FIG. 2, a side view of an embodiment of the desk 100 with the desktop 101 in a horizontal lowered position is illustrated. In the illustrated embodiment, the vertical actuators have been retracted so that the desktop 101, first tilt plate 107, and the second tilt plate 109 are in a lowered position that may be suitable for seated work. The upper shelf assembly rests on the upper surface of the desktop 101 and has also moved to a lowered position. In different embodiments, the height of the desk top can be adjustable between 2 feet and 4.5 feet from the floor surface. In the illustrated lowered position, the height of the desktop can be 2 feet 5 inches.

The first vertical member 103 can have two vertical slots 145, 146. While the illustrated embodiment has two vertical slots, in other embodiments, the first vertical member 103 can have a single vertical slot 145.

As discussed, the first tilt plate 107 is coupled to the first vertical member 103. In the illustrated embodiment, a first pivot point in the first vertical member 151 and a first attachment point in vertical member 161 are used to couple the first tilt plate 107 to the first vertical member 103. The desktop 101 and the first tilt plate 107 can rotate about the first pivot point 151. Similarly, the desktop 101 and the second tilt plate can rotate about a second pivot point. The second tilt plate and the second pivot point are not shown in FIG. 2. When the desktop 101, first tilt plate 107, and second tilt plate rotate, the first attachment point 161 can slide within a first arcuate slot 163 and similarly a second attachment point can slide within a second arcuate slot on the right side of the desk.

FIG. 3 illustrates a side view of an embodiment of the desk 100 with the desktop 101 in a horizontal and raised or elevated position that may be suitable for standing work. In the illustrated embodiment, the vertical actuators have been extended so that the desktop 101, the first tilt plate 107, and the second tilt plate are in a raised position. The upper shelf assembly rests on the upper surface of the desktop 101 and is also in a raised position. In the illustrated raised position, the height of the desk can be 4 feet 1 inch.

In the illustrated raised position, the desk plate can be tilted from 0 to 60 degrees.

With reference to FIG. 4, a side view of an embodiment of the desk 100 in a lowered and angled position is illustrated. In the illustrated embodiment, the vertical actuators have been retracted so that the desktop 101, first tilt plate 107, and the second tilt plate are in a lowered position. The first tilt actuator and the second tilt actuator have also been retracted so that the desktop 101, the first tilt plate 107, and the second tilt plate are also in a highly angled position. The upper shelf assembly can rest on the upper surface of the desktop 101 and/or rear portions of the first tilt plate 107, and the second tilt plate so that the upper shelf assembly is also in a lowered position. In this configuration, the desk 100 can occupy less horizontal space which can be useful for storage. In the illustrated lowered position, the desk plate can be tilted from 0 to 70 degrees.

With reference to FIG. 5, a side view of an embodiment of the desk 100 in a raised angled position is illustrated. The illustration in FIG. 5 depicts the vertical actuators protracted so that the desktop 101, first tilt plate 107, and the second tilt plate are in a raised position. The first tilt actuator and the second tilt actuator are retracted so that the desktop 101, the first tilt plate 107, and the second tilt plate are in their maximum angled position. The upper shelf assembly rests on the upper surface of the desktop and/or rear portions of the first tilt plate 107, and the second tilt plate so that the upper shelf assembly is also in a raised position. This illustration shows the maximum height that the desktop 101 can be raised to. In this configuration, the desk 100 can occupy less space. In FIG. 5, the first tilt actuator and the second tilt actuator are retracted so that the desktop 101, the first tilt plate 107, and the second tilt plate are in a highly angled position which can be more angled than when the desktop 101 is at its lowest position. In the illustrated raised position, the tilt amble of the desktop 101 can be between Oto 60 degrees.

FIG. 6 is an inside view of the right portion of the desk 100 as shown in FIG. 3. FIG. 6 depicts the vertical actuators 113 as extended so that the desktop 101, first tilt plate (not shown) and the second tilt plate 109 are in a raised and horizontal position. In the illustrated raised position, the height of the desk can be 4 feet 1 inch. In the illustrated embodiment, the top portion of the second vertical actuator 113 is coupled to a second side plate 181. A plurality of bearings can extend from a planar surface of the second side plate 181. The bearings can be positioned within vertical parallel grooves 147, 148 in the first vertical member (not shown) and the second vertical member 105. The bearings allow the second side plate 181 and the second tilt plate 109 to move vertically with minimal friction. The second vertical actuator 113 can be positioned on a first side of the second side plate 181 and the bearings can extend outward from an opposite side of the second side plate 181. The bearings can each have an axis of rotation that is perpendicular to the plane of the second side plate 181. The bearings can also have a cylindrical portion adjacent to the second side plate 181 and a cap portion that has a wider diameter than the cylindrical portion. The cylindrical portion can have a diameter that is smaller than the width of the vertical grooves 147, 148 and the cap portion can have a diameter that is larger than the width of the vertical grooves 147, 148. When assembled the second side plate 181 can move the entire length of the vertical grooves 147, 148 but cannot be separated from the second vertical member 105. While the vertical members have been illustrated with two parallel grooves 147, 148, in other embodiments, the vertical members may each only have a single vertical groove within which the bearing slide.

The second tilt actuator 117 is coupled between a lower portion of the second side plate 181 and a front portion of the second tilt plate 109. These coupling points can be rotational couplings that allow the second tilt actuator 117 to rotate relative to the second side plate 181 and the second tilt plate 109. As the second tilt actuator 117 is retracted, a pivot cap (not shown) will slide within an arcuate slot 167.

FIG. 7 is an inside view of the second vertical member 105 depicting the tilt actuator 117 retracted so that the desktop 101 and the second tilt plate 109 are in a raised and angled position, as discussed in FIG. 5. The illustration shows the second tilt actuator 117 fully retracted so that the desktop 101, and the second tilt plate 109 are in their maximum angled positions. As discussed, the second tilt plate 109 rotates about a second pivot point and a lower rear portion of the second tilt plate 109 has been moved to extend back beyond a back edge of the second vertical member 105.

With reference to FIGS. 8 and 9, an inner right-side view of an embodiment of the desk 100 with the desktop 101 in the lowered position is illustrated. As discussed, the pivot points and the bearing attachment points slide within the vertical grooves 147, 148. In the illustrated embodiments, the vertical grooves 147, 148 is vertically oriented and therefore the pivot points and the attachment points can only move in vertical directions. Therefore when the vertical actuators 113 are fully retracted, the pivot points and the attachment points can slide to the bottom of the vertical grooves 147, 148. Conversely, when the vertical actuators are fully extended, the pivot points and the bearing attachment points can slide to an upper portion of the grooves 147, 148.

With reference to FIGS. 4-9, the upper shelf assembly can also be attached to the vertical slots 147, 148 in the vertical members 105. Bearings 185 can extend inward from the shelf slide plate 125 and allow the upper shelf assembly to smoothly slide up or down in a vertical direction. When the second vertical actuators 113 is fully extended, the shelf bearings 185 can slide to an upper end portion of the slots 147, 148 and when the second vertical actuators 113 is fully retracted, the shelf bearings 185 can slide to a lower portion of the slots 147, 148. In some embodiments, it may be desirable to lock the upper shelf assembly in a fixed position rather than having the shelf move with the desktop 101.

FIG. 10 is a side view and FIG. 11 a front view of an embodiment of the double-rail system plate assembly 180, of the double-rail system plate assembly 180. In the illustrated embodiment, the double-rail system plate assembly 180 includes: a side plate 181, a pivot bearing 183, groove bearings 187, and an attachment bearing 189. FIG. 12, illustrates the vertical member 105 with the pivot bearing 183, groove bearings 187, and an attachment bearing 189 extending through the grooves 147, 148.

Each of the described pivot bearings 183, 187 is attached to the tilt plate shown in the other drawings. The pivot bearing 183 extends through the pivot point in the tilt plate and the attachment bearing 189 extends through the arcuate slot in the tilt plate. The weight of the desktop and the tilt plates is supported by the pivot bearings 183 and the attachment bearings 189. The pivot bearing 183, the groove bearings 187, and the attachment bearing 189 also extend through the vertical grooves in the vertical members. The vertical and tilt actuators are also attached to the side plate 181. The tilt actuator is coupled between a coupling on a front portion of the tilt plate and the tilt actuator pivot 191. In the tilt actuator's extended position, the desktop can be horizontal and in the retracted position, the desktop can be angled downward. As the tilt actuators move between extended and retracted positions, the tilt actuators can freely rotated about the coupling on the front portion of the tilt plate and the tilt actuator pivot 191. The upper end of vertical actuator is coupled to the upper coupling.

The pivot bearing 183, the groove bearings 187, and the attachment bearing 189 can be cylindrical in shape with a main portion that has a uniform diameter and an outer portion or middle portion that can have a wider diameter. These wider diameters can keep the pivot bearing 183, the groove bearings 187, and the attachment bearing 189 within the grooves 147, 148 or slots in the vertical member 105 and the tilt plates. The pivot bearing 183, the groove bearings 187, and the attachment bearing 189 can have smooth rolling bushings or bearings so that these components can slide smoothly within the grooves 147, 148 and slots of the vertical members and the tilt plates.

With reference to FIG. 13, an embodiment of the inventive desk 100 is illustrated, similar to FIG. 1 but with only a first vertical slot in a first vertical member 105. As discussed, the pivot points and the bearing attachment points slide within the single vertical groove 147, 148. In the illustrated embodiments, the vertical grooves 147, 148 is vertically oriented and therefore the pivot points and the attachment points can only move in vertical directions.

FIG. 14 is a front view of an embodiment of the single-rail system plate assembly 180 to be used in the desk with only a first vertical slot in a first vertical member 105. FIG. 15 is a side view of an embodiment of the single-rail system plate assembly 180 to be used in the desk with only a first vertical slot in a first vertical member 105.

The tilt actuator is coupled between a coupling on a front portion of the tilt plate and the tilt actuator pivot 191. In the tilt actuator's extended position, the desktop can be horizontal and in the retracted position, the desktop can be angled downward. As the tilt actuators move between extended and retracted positions, the tilt actuators can freely rotate about the coupling on the front portion of the tilt plate and the tilt actuator pivot 191.

FIG. 16 is a side view of an embodiment of the desk with the desktop 101 in a horizontal lowered position. The upper shelf assembly 121 can be locked in one of a plurality of raised positions at the upper portion of the vertical members. The upper shelf assembly 121 can be locked by a first bolt placed through a hole in the first shelf side plate 123 and a hole in the vertical member 105. As well as a second bolt placed through a hole in the second shelf side plate and a hole in the second vertical member. The vertical members can have a plurality of holes that can be used to adjust the position of the upper shelf assembly 121.
