Definitions

  • This invention relates to a working table with a table top the height and angle adjustment of which can be changed in that the supporting structure of the table top comprises two parallel telescopic legs (1, 2) and an element (3) having adjustable length and being operatively connected with the legs, electrically driven adjusting means being coupled with said legs and said element.
  • Tables of this kind are known, e.g. from DE-A-3630628 for which the intention of the adjustability of the height and angle of the table top is to provide the user with a possibility of varying the strain of shoulders and back in the course of a working period by changing the height and inclination so that the strain is divided as equally as possible among the parts of the body mentioned.
  • the object of the invention is to remedy this seriuos problem, and for this purpose the working table is, according to the invention, characterized in that a preferably electrical or electronic control device is provided for automatic control of said adjusting means for effecting a continous or intermittent operation-free variation of the height and/or angle adjustment.
  • An embodiment of the invention is characterized in that the two telescopic legs are pivotably connected with the table top of its front edge and that the element having adjustable length is a third telescopic leg which is pivotably connected with the rear edge of the table top in such a way that the height and angle adjustments can be varied independantly of each other.
  • the preferable electrical or electronic control device can be designed according to principles known per se corresponding to what is used e.g. in connection with robot control.
  • FIG. 1 and 2 show a front view of a working table with three table legs and a side view, respectively.
  • Fig. 1 the two front table legs are designated 1 and 2, and the rear table leg is designated 3.
  • the table top is designated 4.
  • the height of table top 4 can be adjusted by means of the table legs 1 and 2 and the inclination of the table top can be adjusted by means of the leg 3, as the length of all three table legs 1-3, which are arranged telescopically in tubes 5-7, can be adjusted. They can be adjusted independently of each other, the legs 1 and 2 on one side, and the leg 3 on the other, so that the height setting of the table can be varied without influencing the angle setting, and vice versa. It is of course also possible to design the structure in such a way that the outer telescope tubes 5-7 are displaceable relative to the internal legs 1-3.
  • the length of the legs can be varied continuously or intermittently during the entire working period in order to obtain the wanted variation of the strain of the back and shoulders of the user.
  • the control of the variation of the table top settings 4 can take place in various ways, e.g. by means of electronic devices, which can be programmed to control the variation dependent on the personal needs of the user.
