Motorized, height adjustable desktop system
A motorized desktop stand unit having a main surface assembly designed to accommodate a monitor or laptop and a secondary surface assembly designed to accommodate a keyboard. The desktop stand unit also has a frame assembly having an upper frame and a lower frame. An elevation mechanism is provided between the upper frame and lower frame. A switch provided in the main surface assembly, when actuated, causes the elevation mechanism to adjust the space between the upper frame and lower frames, changing the height of the main surface assembly.
1. A motorized desktop stand unit comprising:
a main surface assembly designed to accommodate a monitor or laptop, the main surface having a left side, a right side, a front side, and a back side;
a secondary surface assembly slideably attached in parallel to the front side of said main surface assembly, wherein the direction of movement of the secondary surface is perpendicular to the left and right side of the main surface;
a frame assembly comprising an upper frame and a lower frame;
an elevation mechanism provided between said upper frame and lower frame; and
a switch provided in said main surface assembly;
wherein the elevation mechanism comprises two pairs arms each having a roller wheel attached to a distal end relative to the main surface assembly;
wherein the scissor arms are connected at the proximal end to the left and right side of the main surface, further wherein the scissor arms are joined in the middle to form an x-shaped arrangement, the x-shaped arrangement transversely oriented from the left side to the right side when viewed by a user;
wherein when said switch is actuated, the elevation mechanism adjusts the space between said upper frame and lower frame, changing the height of the main surface assembly.
2. The motorized desktop stand unit of claim 1 , wherein said elevation mechanism comprises a linear actuator.
3. The motorized desktop stand unit of claim 2 , wherein when said switch is activated, the elevation mechanism moves said roller wheels along u-shaped tracks provided along said upper and lower frames.
4. The motorized desktop stand unit of claim 2 , wherein the elevation mechanism further comprises a track and moving sleeve designed to move linearly along said track, wherein said moving sleeve is connected to two ends of said four scissor arms.
5. The motorized desktop stand unit of claim 1 , wherein surface joints connect said main surface assembly to said secondary surface assembly.
6. The motorized desktop stand unit of claim 1 , wherein said main surface assembly further comprises at least one grommet hole.
