Vertically adjustable table

A vertically adjustable workstation comprising:

• at least two vertically adjustable leg assemblies, each leg assembly having a lower end terminating in a supporting foot and an upper end terminating in a bracket;
• a work surface attached relative to the bracket and adjustable over a limited range relative to the foot;
• each leg assembly including a ratcheting latch mechanism for vertically adjusting the work surface relative to the foot;
• and
• the ratcheting latch mechanism comprising a toggle fixed relative to one of the foot and the bracket and a member fixed relative to the other of the foot and the bracket, the toggle carrying a latch pin and having an upper yoke and a lower yoke pivotally connected by a stud, and wherein the member is formed with a series of ratchet slots that the latch pin can serially occupy, whereby the work surface is adjustable upwardly in a series of discrete vertical steps and is movable downwardly in one step.

A vertically adjustable workstation comprising:

• a pair of vertically adjustable leg assemblies having a foot member attached to the lower end of each leg assembly and a work surface support member attached to the upper end of each leg assembly;
• a work surface attached to the work surface support members;
• the work surface support members attached to the upper end of each leg assembly by a vertical adjustment assembly, each vertical adjustment assembly comprising the combination of a gas spring and a ratcheting latch mechanism;
• the gas spring having one end attached to the leg assembly and the other end supporting the work surface support member with an upward force;
• and
• the ratcheting latch mechanism attached to the leg assembly and the work surface support member, the ratcheting latch mechanism comprising a toggle having an upper yoke and a lower yoke pivotally connected by a stud, the toggle fixed relative to one of the foot member and the support member, which toggle carries a latch pin, and a ratchet member fixed relative to the other of the foot member and the support member, which ratchet member is formed with a series of ratchet slots that the latch pin can serially occupy, the ratcheting latch mechanism adapted to adjust the height of the work surface support member in a series of discrete vertical steps.

A vertically adjustable workstation comprising:

• a pair of vertically adjustable leg assemblies, each leg assembly having a lower end terminating in a foot and an upper end terminating in a bracket;
• a work surface, attached between the brackets, for adjusting vertically relative to the feet over a limited range;
• each leg assembly including an adjustment assembly comprising the combination of a gas spring and a ratcheting latch mechanism, wherein the gas spring has one end attached fixed relative to the foot and an opposite end attached fixed relative to the bracket, and wherein the ratcheting latch mechanism adjustably interconnects the bracket with the foot such that the work surface is adjustable upwardly in a series of discrete vertical steps and is adjustable downwardly in one step, during which said one downwardly step the gas spring communicates support from the foot to the work surface;
• and
• the ratcheting latch mechanism comprising a toggle including an inverted U-shaped upper yoke and a U-shaped lower yoke pivotally connected by a stud, the toggle fixed relative to one of the foot and the bracket, wherein the toggle carries a latch pin, and a member fixed relative to the other of the foot and the bracket, the member being formed with a series of ratchet slots that the latch pin can serially occupy to provide thereby vertical adjustability.
