Abstract
A table more specially in the form of desk has a desk frame (10) that has an oblique element (16) extending in an upward direction, in which there is an arrangement (44 and 59) for adjustment of the height of the top part (21) of the desk. This element (16) accommodates a sliding element (44) which at its top end bears a support member (17 and 18) for the top part (21) of the desk. The latter may be shifted in relation to the support member (17 and 18) and is connected with the desk frame (10) by an adjustment arrangement (23) so that when the top part (21) of the desk is adjusted in height the top part is kept from moving horizontally to any substantial extent in relation to the person using the desk.
