Adjustable ergonomic workstation
This disclosure provides an adjustable ergonomic workstation that includes first platform and a second platform that is coupled to and positioned below the first platform, wherein the first platform may be moved between at least a lowered position and a first raised position and wherein the coupling of the second platform to the first platform includes a tilt adjustment assembly wherein the second platform may be adjusted between at least a first angular position and a second angular position relative to the first platform.
1. An adjustable ergonomic workstation comprising:
a base, a leg assembly, a first platform and a second platform;
the leg assembly being coupled to and extending between the base and the first platform, and being adjustable to move the first platform between at least a lowered position and a first raised position;
the leg assembly further comprising two pair of L-shaped legs coupled to the base and to the first platform and having outer portions that overlap;
a height adjustment assembly having at least one gas cylinder directly pivotally connected at a first end to one L-shaped leg of at least one of the pairs of L-shaped legs and directly pivotally connected at a second end to the second L-shaped leg of the at least one of the pairs of L-shaped legs, wherein the at least one gas cylinder is shielded by the overlap of the outer portions of the at least one pair of L-shaped legs to which it is connected, wherein the gas cylinder assists in supporting the first platform when moving the first platform between the lowered position and the first raised position;
the second platform being coupled to and positioned below the first platform; and
the coupling of the second platform to the first platform including a tilt adjustment assembly wherein the second platform is adjustable between at least a first angular position and a second angular position relative to the first platform and the tilt adjustment assembly further comprises at least a clamping mechanism spaced apart from a pivot that is in a fixed location relative to the first and second platforms, and the clamping mechanism and pivot in the fixed location relative to the first and second platforms together control the relative angular position of the second platform relative to the first platform.
