Abstract:
A modular storage system and work station comprised of connectable modules that are operative to form portable work spaces that are easily adjustable and provide for an attachment system that allows for various accessories, computers, notebooks and the like to be detachably secured to the work station. In a preferred embodiment, the modules are comprised of a honeycomb-like structure that is operative to allow for the attachable interconnection of male- and female-type parts. The modular storage system and work station of the present invention may further be designed to be operatively transitional from a first carrying case-type configuration to a work station configuration, the latter defining a selectively adjustable work surface to which various accessories can be attached and selectively positioned. The storage system can also be scaled up to support larger equipment or serve as a display system with the help of electrical lighting elements, or scaled down to serve as more personal storage units such as a tool box or lunch box.

Abstract:
A system, device and method for determining the position of objects comprising one or more furniture items and/or building structures having one or more sensors and a controller coupled to the sensors. The sensors detect when one or more objects having at least one sensor tag are positioned proximate one of the sensors and transmit a signal to the controller including an identifier of the object and the sensor that detected the objects. As a result, the controller is able to track the position of the objects in relation to the furniture and/or building structures preventing the items from being lost and increasing efficiency when looking for misplaced objects.
Abstract:
A portable collapsible writing desk for a notebook computer preferably includes an arm rest assembly, a desktop assembly, a column assembly and a base assembly. The base assembly is attached to a bottom of the column assembly. The arm rest assembly is attached to a top of the column assembly. The desktop assembly is moveably retained by the arm rest assembly. The collapsible writing desk may rest on the base assembly, or rest on an end of the desktop assembly and an edge of the column assembly. A retractable handle may be extended to carry the portable collapsible writing desk for a notebook computer like a suitcase.

Abstract:
Bei einem flächenhaft sich erstreckendes Möbelbauteil mit einer über die Fläche integrierten Spulenanordnung für eine induktive Stromversorgung eines elektrischen Verbrauchers ist der Verbraucher eine Datenverarbeitungsvorrichtung, die drahtlos mit einem Netzwerk kommuniziert, wobei eine Spulenanordnung und eine Antennenanordnung, einen Bestandteil einer Schnittstelle des Netzwerkes ausbildend und für den drahtlosen Datenaustausch herangezogen, zu einem gemeinsamen, flächenhaft sich innerhalb des Möbelbauteils erstreckenden Modul zusammengefasst sind.
Abstract:
A case for use with a stenotype machine, portable computer, and cables, power supply equipment, memory devices, as well as paper, writing utensils, and the like to form a mobile workstation. The case includes a top, a bottom, and a circumscribing sidewall, the top removably or hingedly attached to the side wall to cover an interior that is divided into multiple compartments, including at least a first compartment to store the portable computer, a second compartment to store the stenotype machine, and a third compartment to store cables for data and power that are connected to the computer and stenotype machine, the sidewall having an access opening for the stenotype machine to deploy for use while remaining attached to the case, and the case further including a bottom wall to which a stand is removably attached.
Abstract:
A console (10) is disclosed which comprises a console top (12), a first member (14), and a second member (16) coupled to the first member (14) via a mechanism. The mechanism (17) is movable between a first configuration in which the first member (14) closes a recess (18) in the console top (12), and a second configuration in which the first member (14) extends away from the console top (12) and the second member (16) is arranged such that it can support a load while the mechanism (17) is retained in the second configuration.
