ABSTRACT:
A work station system suitable for an office can include an elongate support beam, rigid, vertical posts supporting this beam above the floor, and a movable desk unit with a work surface and rollable members mounted at a bottom end thereof A wall is mounted on the top of the beam in a vertical position and is supported by the beam. A flexible cable and wire carrier device extends between elevated positions on the support beam and the desk unit and is connected to both. Preferably this carrier device includes an elongate carrier section comprising a plurality of interconnected links that are pivotable with respect to each other. The carrier device permits the desk unit to move towards and away from the support beam and, if a desk unit which is vertically adjustable is connected to the carrier device, the carrier device also permits the desk unit to move upwardly or downwardly. The carrier device can include a connecting module attached to its beam end. The invention can also be used with a supporting wall that is supported directly by the floor and that has no beam member supporting it.
