Pneumatic table assembly
View Patent ↗An adjustable table assembly incorporating pneumatics. In one aspect, the table assembly includes a table surface that is adjustable in a vertical direction and further includes wheels for transportation. In other aspects, the table assembly includes a step assembly as well as slots and magnetized compartments for receiving and storing tools.
1. A table assembly, comprising:
a base, the base including a total of six legs supporting the base on a floor surface, a first group of four legs on a first side of the base and a second group of two legs on a second side of the base, only each of the second group of two legs being configured with wheels;
a table surface;
a single L-shaped member having a first and a second end, the first end connected to the second first of the base and the second end connected to the table surface so that the table surface is laterally displaced from the base;
a pneumatic sub-assembly incorporated into the L-shaped member;
a handle extending generally perpendicular to a vertical portion of the L-shaped member;
a lever for actuating the pneumatic sub-assembly; and
a step assembly, the step assembly incorporated into the base;
wherein the handle is employed to tilt the table assembly on the wheels.
2. The table assembly of claim 1 , further comprising a plurality of compartments for storing tools.
3. The table assembly of claim 2 , wherein the plurality of compartments are formed in the table surface.
4. The table assembly of claim 2 , wherein at least one of the plurality of compartments is magnetized.
5. The table assembly of claim 1 , further comprising at least one through hole formed in the table surface.
6. The table assembly of claim 5 , wherein the through hole is configured to accept a tool.
7. The table assembly of claim 1 , wherein the pneumatic sub-assembly is a gas spring cylinder assembly.
8. The table assembly of claim 1 , wherein the step assembly includes at least one step.
9. The table assembly of claim 1 , wherein the table surface includes a perimeter and a sidewall extending along the perimeter and above a plane occupying the table assembly.
