Furniture accessory kit for portable computers and the like

In a furniture system for dividing open office space and the like of the type having at least one vertical slat wall panel with a plurality of vertically spaced apart horizontal rails, the improvement of a wall-hung portable computer support shelf comprising:

• a horizontal shelf member shaped to support a portable computer on an upper surface thereof;
• a connector member detachably mounting said shelf member to said slat wall panel along a rear edge of said shelf member to support the same from said slat wall panel in a cantilevered horizontal orientation;
• a wire trough extending laterally along said shelf member adjacent said rear edge thereof, and shaped to receive and retain therein wiring associated with the portable computer;
• and
• a removable cover shaped to enclose said wire trough and being detachably connected with said shelf member to provide access to said wire trough.

A shelf removably mountable on a substantially vertical slat wall having a plurality of vertically spaced apart horizontal rails, comprising:

• a worksurface defining a top surface configured to support a laptop computer thereon, and a rear edge;
• at least one mounting member attached to the shelf and releasably mountable to the slat wall;
• a recessed area located below the top surface of the worksurface, and adapted to receive wiring associated with the laptop computer therein;
• and
• a top cover movable between a closed position wherein the top cover covers the recessed area and is substantially planar with the top surface, and an open position wherein the recessed area is accessible.

A shelf removably mountable on a slat wall, comprising:

• a housing including a first wall, and a mutually perpendicular second wall, the first and second walls connected by at least one intermediate wall to define an interior of the housing, the housing having a first opening and a second opening, the openings located at opposite ends of the housing and separated by the walls, the first and second walls having a common length, the first wall having a substantially smaller width than a width of the second wall;
• a first mounting member connected to the housing, and removably mountable to a slat wall, the first mounting member supporting the housing from the slat wall in a first orientation wherein the first wall assumes a substantially horizontal orientation and the width of the first wall projects outwardly from the slat wall;
• and
• a second mounting member connected to the housing, and removably mountable to the slat wall, the second mounting member supporting the housing from the slat wall in a second orientation wherein the second wall assumes a substantially horizontal orientation and the width of the second wall projects outwardly from the slat wall.

An apparatus removably mountable to a slat wall for managing electrical and communication lines comprising:

• a loop section adapted to receive electrical and communication lines therethrough, wherein the loop section has a gap located therein;
• a stem section fixedly attached to the loop section, such that the gap in the loop section is located substantially proximate the stem section;
• and
• a plurality of flexible fingers connected to the stem and adapted to releasably engage a slat wall, thereby supporting the loop from the slat wall.
