摘要:
A furniture arrangement includes an overhead support defining an elongated overhead utility channel, and one or more lamps attached to the overhead support in recesses formed by the utility channel. A dome-shaped reflector or gull-wing-shaped light-distributing member is attached to the overhead support for distributing light from the lamps downwardly into side areas around the overhead support. The light-distributing members are positioned to both distribute light from the lamp and to visually shield contents of the utility channel from people standing around (or above) the side areas. The utility channel forms light-source recesses for receiving the lamps and lamp ballasts, and wireway recesses for receiving lay-in wiring and utilities, which wiring and utilities are guided by the light-distributing members into the wireway recesses. The overhead support can be part of a partition panel or can be supported on an overhead beam(s) forming part of an overhead framework for distributing utilities throughout an office area and for supporting office accessories. A narrower embodiment utilizes a pair of spaced parallel overhead beams, with a trough recessed between and supported by the parallel overhead beams.

A furniture unit is provided specially adapted for use in laboratories. The furniture unit includes a pair of spaced-apart uprights and vibration-dampening legs extending from the uprights for stably supporting the furniture unit on a floor surface. A belt-high structural beam comprising two opposing C-shaped beams is fixedly attached to the uprights to rigidly interconnect the uprights in a spaced relationship. A plurality of worksurfaces is provided, each having a pair of cantilever brackets configured to rigidly connect to a side of the belt-high structural beam and to extend laterally therefrom. The plurality of worksurfaces is separately adjustably supported on the belt-high structural beam for vertical height adjustment, with at least one of the cantilever brackets engaging the belt-high structural beam at a location between the uprights. Shelves are attached between the uprights above the plurality of worksurfaces. Optionally, an accessory panel is mounted between the front and rear shelves for visual shielding and/or for function use, such as a marker board. A Y-shaped lighting support includes a bayonet that telescopingly engages a top of the uprights. A lamp housing structure spans between the lighting supports in a location where a lamp in each lamp housing structure is generally above a front edge of the worksurfaces. A utility distribution beam is mounted between the uprights above the structural beam for communicating utilities, including piped utilities and cabled utilities, to accessible locations along a rear edge of the worksurfaces. The legs include gussets that telescope into the uprights to provide a stable bottom joint.

The storage system includes a universal frame adapted to support different inserts, such as a hanging folder, a hanging sling, and a hanging box-shaped insert and is adapted to be supported by various supports, such as bent-wire snap-attach legs, a panel bracket, and rigid box support. The storage system is knockdown and reconfigurable by a user, and thus provides flexibility of use, while taking advantage of common parts. Further, the system can be flexibly used in existing offices having shelves.

An adjustable dual worksurface support is provided for electronic data processing equipment and the like, and comprises a freestanding pedestal, and a generally U-shaped first worksurface having a front surface shaped to support a keyboard thereon, and two side surfaces extending rearwardly from opposite sides thereon to define a central open area. A second worksurface is provided to support a display thereon, and has a plan shape similar to that of the central open area of the keyboard worksurface for close reception therein. The keyboard worksurface is vertically adjustable with respect to the floor, preferably between sitting and standing positions, and the display worksurface is vertically adjustable with respect to the keyboard worksurface, preferably to positions both above and below the same to accommodate various users and tasks.

A furniture system includes a low-height partition having a horizontal row of discrete attachment sites, such as slots on each side, and having a top surface. A binder bin has a continuous horizontal attachment feature, such as an “L” groove, along an upper portion of its rear side. A bracket system attaches the binder bin to the partition in a raised position, and includes a bent-rod top bracket and bottom brackets configured to engage the slots on opposite sides of the partition. The binder bin is initially attached at a desired location along the partition by selectively engaging the brackets with the slots and by engaging the bracket with the groove. The angle of the binder bin is adjustable with respect to the top surface of the partition by threadably finely adjusting a nut on the brackets.
