Definitions

  • the invention relates to a work table, in particular for screen workstations, with a base frame, a worktop which rests on the base frame, and with a cable duct running along the worktop with a base, a front wall, a rear wall, a cover which is flush with the Surface of the worktop lies, as well as a longitudinal slot for the passage of an electrical connection cable.
  • connection and connection cables of devices placed on the worktop can be hidden in the interior of the cable duct up to the connection point or socket. If necessary, the cable duct also accepts distribution rails or multiple power strips.
  • connection elements of electrical devices are generally much larger than the relatively thin electrical cable itself. Special design measures are therefore necessary to widen the longitudinal slot provided in the cable duct so that a cable together the permanently attached connection element can be inserted. For example, the upper cover of the cable duct can be opened; After the electrical connection cable has been inserted, the cable duct is closed again by closing this cover. Another possibility is to fasten the worktop so that it can move horizontally on the base so that it can be pushed forward to temporarily open the cable duct.
  • the longitudinal slot required for the passage of the electrical connection cable is usually located in the cover or is provided in the free rear wall facing away from the worktop.
  • a longitudinal slot in the cover of the cable duct a cable lying on the worktop must be bent downwards at right angles so that it leads into the interior of the cable duct from above.
  • the cable in question must first be passed over the cover which is flush with the work surface, in order then to be able to be inserted through the slot in a bend of almost 180 degrees.
  • Mains connection cables or thin connecting lines to IT terminals can be bent easily due to their high flexibility.
  • a cable lead through a slot in the cover of the cable duct or even through the rear wall would - given given dimensions of the cable duct - make such strong bends that there would be a risk of permanent damage to the sensitive cable.
  • the object of the present invention is to create a work table with a cable duct which is flush with the work surface. in which even thick and rigid connecting cables from electrical devices placed on the worktop can be routed as straight as possible and avoiding sharp bends into the interior of the cable duct.
  • the solution to this technical problem is based on a work table of the type mentioned at the outset.
  • the object is achieved in that the worktop has a bevel which slopes downward towards the cable duct, and in that the longitudinal slot of the cable duct in its front wall adjacent to the worktop is provided.
  • the beveling of the worktop in the direction of the cable duct opens up the possibility of laying the longitudinal slot for the passage of the connecting cable in the front wall adjacent to the worktop.
  • a cable lying completely flat on the worktop can therefore be easily inserted into the interior of the cable duct with minimal bending. Even with a very flat cable duct, a light one is sufficient.
  • S-shaped bend of the cable so that the work table according to the invention is particularly suitable for storing large and heavy devices with thick, unyielding connecting cables. The risk of cable breaks due to excessive turns is excluded; annoying loop formation is completely avoided.
  • the bevel conveniently slopes down at an angle of approximately 45 degrees from the top of the worktop. Such a geometry approximates an arc that results when a little flexible, but elastically deformable cable is bent. In order to avoid any sharp edges, the transition between the top of the worktop and the bevel can also be designed to run continuously.
  • a design of the worktop with a bevel extending to the underside is preferred. Along this continuous bevel, a cable can be pressed down into the level of the underside of the worktop, so that cables can also be laid whose diameter is in the order of the thickness of the worktop.
  • a distance is provided between the worktop and the cable duct. Any liquid spilled on the worktop can then run down over the bevel and drip down between the front wall of the cable duct, which is protected against the ingress of moisture, and the rear edge of the worktop.
  • the front wall is lower than the height of the cable duct, so that the longitudinal slot is delimited by the cover and the upper edge of the front wall.
  • the longitudinal slot required for cable entry is therefore created in the simplest way by shortening the front wall. This automatically results in a position of the longitudinal slot directly under the cover of the cable duct, so that the longitudinal slot and the top of the worktop have the smallest possible height difference.
  • the cover can protrude from the front and / or the back of the cable duct. Although the cover lies in one plane with the top of the worktop, the space required for this is available due to the bevel of the worktop. The resulting interruption of the level usable surface of the worktable resulting from the bevel is limited to the extent absolutely necessary for the passage of the cables by such an overhanging of the cover.
  • the projecting cover can carry a downward-pointing rubber lip, which closes the longitudinal slot at the points where there is no cable entry and thus protects against the ingress of dirt and moisture.
  • the cover of the cable duct can be removed.
  • the cover can be latched on webs which are arranged in the interior of the cable duct.
  • a structurally somewhat more complex solution is to form the cover in a hinged manner, for example in that the cover is articulated on supports which are arranged in the interior of the cable duct.
  • an additional longitudinal slot is provided in the rear wall of the cable duct.
  • This additional longitudinal slot allows the connection cables running inside the cable duct to be led out at the rear of the work table, for example in the direction of a nearby device connection or a socket.
  • an additional plate can be arranged on the side of the cable duct opposite the worktop, which also has a bevel that slopes downward towards the cable duct. The worktop and additional plate can then be used in the same way for storing electrical devices, the respective connection cables being able to be inserted from both sides into the cable duct which is now arranged centrally between the two plates.
  • the work table shown obliquely from the rear in FIG. 1 has a base frame 110 on which a worktop 120 rests.
  • a cable duct 130 which is covered at the top and runs essentially in front of a metal profile, runs transversely along the rear edge of the worktop.
  • the underside 522 of the worktop 520 abuts the front wall 532 of the cable duct 530.
  • a collecting channel 570 is formed on the latter.
  • drain holes 571 are provided, through which possibly collected liquid can flow down.
  • vertically standing supports 539 are arranged, at the upper end of which a cover 534 with rounded edges is pivotally attached. The rear wall 533 in this cable duct 530 is pulled up to the level of the upper side 521 of the worktop 520, so that the cable duct 530 is completely closed to the rear.
