ABSTRACT:
A height adjustable table includes a frame that has a pair of spaced apart, generally vertical frame sections, each supported upon a foot, a transverse, generally horizontal section that connects at its end portions to the vertical sections and a pair of lifts that are supported by the vertical frame sections to elevate between extended, higher elevational and retracted, lower elevational positions. The lifts support a table top with a work surface. The frame can be in the form of a universal base that accepts a number of different mechanism including, for example, a counterbalance mechanism, a motor drive mechanism, and a manually operable mechanism. These mechanisms can be selected by a user, depending upon the type of table that is to be manufactured. A plurality of panels are provided that cover the frame. These panels can also be selected by an end user to define an ornamental look and/or a selected color pattern. A superstructure extends from the frame upwardly to support a storage unit (e.g., cabinet, shelve, receptacle) at a position above the work surface.
