## Abstract

A desk with a slidable drawer assembly is disclosed herein. The desk includes at least one pair of spaced-apart leg members; a desk tabletop supported on the leg members, the desk tabletop having a top surface and a bottom surface oppositely disposed relative to the top surface; at least one suspended rail member, the at least one suspended rail member supported by the leg members, the at least one suspended rail member being spaced apart from the bottom surface of the desk tabletop by a gap; and a drawer assembly adjustably supported on the at least one suspended rail member, the drawer assembly comprising a support carriage with one or more slidable drawer members, the support carriage configured to be slidably displaced on the at least one suspended rail member so as to enable a user to selectively adjust a position of the drawer assembly of the desk.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A desk with a slidable drawer assembly, the desk comprising:
at least one pair of leg members, a first of the at least one pair of leg members being spaced apart from a second of the at least one pair of leg members;
a desk tabletop supported on the at least one pair of leg members, the desk tabletop having a top surface and a bottom surface oppositely disposed relative to the top surface;
at least one suspended rail member, the at least one suspended rail member supported by the at least one pair of leg members, the at least one suspended rail member being spaced apart from the bottom surface of the desk tabletop by a gap; and
a drawer assembly adjustably supported on the at least one suspended rail member, the drawer assembly comprising a support carriage with one or more slidable drawer members, the support carriage configured to be slidably displaced on the at least one suspended rail member so as to enable a user of the desk to selectively adjust a position of the drawer assembly of the desk, the drawer assembly further comprising at least one roller, the at least one roller slidably coupling the drawer assembly to the at least one suspended rail member, and the at least one roller of the drawer assembly comprising a concave surface that substantially corresponds to a curved outer surface of the at least one suspended rail member.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The desk according to claim 1, wherein at least one of the leg members comprises intersecting diagonal members with a central rectangular member circumscribing the intersection point of the diagonal members.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The desk according to claim 1, wherein the desk tabletop comprises a glass panel supported on a tabletop frame, the tabletop frame being coupled to the at least one pair of the leg members.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The desk according to claim 1, wherein the at least one suspended rail member comprises a first suspended rail member and a second suspended rail member, the first suspended rail member being laterally spaced apart from the second suspended rail member, and the support carriage of the drawer assembly being adjustably supported on the first and second suspended rail members.

### Claim 5 (depends on 4)

The desk according to claim 4, wherein the first and second suspended rail members are supported between the leg members of the desk.

### Claim 6 (depends on 4)

The desk according to claim 4, wherein each of the first and second suspended rail members has a circular cross section.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

The desk according to claim 1, wherein the support carriage of the drawer assembly comprises a pair of side frame members, at least one pair of drawer frame members, and a bottom wall, the at least one pair of drawer frame members operating as tracks for the one or more slidable drawer members.

### Claim 8 (depends on 1)

The desk according to claim 1, wherein the one or more slidable drawer members of the drawer assembly comprise a first slidable drawer member and a second slidable drawer member, the first slidable drawer member being disposed above the second slidable drawer member.

### Claim 9

A desk with a slidable drawer assembly, the desk comprising:
at least one pair of leg members, a first of the at least one pair of leg members being spaced apart from a second of the at least one pair of leg members, at least one of the leg members comprising intersecting diagonal members with a central rectangular member circumscribing the intersection point of the diagonal members;
a desk tabletop supported on the at least one pair of leg members, the desk tabletop having a top surface and a bottom surface oppositely disposed relative to the top surface;
first and second suspended rail members, the first suspended rail member being laterally spaced apart from the second suspended rail member, the first and second suspended rail members supported by the at least one pair of leg members, the first suspended rail member being spaced apart from the bottom surface of the desk tabletop by a first gap, and the second suspended rail member being spaced apart from the bottom surface of the desk tabletop by a second gap; and
a drawer assembly adjustably supported on the first and second suspended rail members, the drawer assembly comprising a support carriage with one or more slidable drawer members, the support carriage configured to be slidably displaced on the first and second suspended rail members so as to enable a user of the desk to selectively adjust a position of the drawer assembly of the desk.

### Claim 10 (depends on 9)

The desk according to claim 9, wherein the desk tabletop comprises a glass panel supported on a tabletop frame, the tabletop frame being coupled to the at least one pair of the leg members.
