an actuator, disposed within the support frame between the bent portion of the first leg and the bent portion of the second leg and coupled to one or more of the first leg and the second leg, wherein the actuator is configured to raise and lower the desktop,
wherein, when the collapsible desk is lowered to a storage configuration, the straight portion of each of the first leg and the second leg is parallel to both the desktop and a ground surface.
2. The collapsible desk of claim 1 , wherein the first leg and the second leg are pivotally coupled to one another via a scissor joint.
3. The collapsible desk of claim 1 , wherein, responsive to the upper end of the first leg and the second leg translating laterally within the support frame, the first leg and the second leg pivot about a pivot component.
4. The collapsible desk of claim 3 , wherein, responsive to the upper ends of the first leg and the second leg translating laterally towards each other within the support frame, the desktop is raised.
5. The collapsible desk of claim 3 , wherein, responsive to the upper ends of the first leg and the second leg translating laterally away from each other within the support frame, the desktop is lowered.
6. The collapsible desk of claim 1 , wherein, when the collapsible desk is lowered to the storage configuration, each of the first leg and the second leg extends beyond a respective side of the desktop.
7. The collapsible desk of claim 1 , wherein the desktop is a rectangular shape having a length and a width, the length being longer than the width.
8. The collapsible desk of claim 1 , wherein each of the first leg and the second leg includes a support base, extending from a lower end of each of the first leg and the second leg and contacting a ground surface.
9. The collapsible desk of claim 8 , wherein each support base includes two integrated wheels.
10. The collapsible desk of claim 1 , further comprising a retractable arm coupled to the support frame.
11. The collapsible desk of claim 1 , further comprising a control panel configured for electrical communication with the actuator.
12. A collapsible desk, comprising:
a desktop;
a support frame, disposed underneath the desktop;
a first leg;
a second leg,
wherein each of the first leg and the second leg includes a straight portion and a bent portion, the bent portion located at an upper end of each of the first leg and the second leg, wherein the bent portion of the first leg is affixed to the support frame and laterally translates within the support frame, and wherein the bent portion of the second leg is affixed to the support frame and laterally translates within the support frame;
a first actuator, coupled to one of the support frame and the desktop, and coupled to the first leg at the bent portion of the first leg; and
a second actuator, coupled to one of the support frame and the desktop, and coupled to the second leg at the bent portion of the second leg,
such that the first actuator and the second actuator are configured to raise and lower the desktop,
wherein the first actuator and the second actuator are disposed within the support frame between the bent portion of the first leg and the bent portion of the second leg,
wherein, when the collapsible desk is lowered to a storage configuration, the straight portion of each of the first leg and the second leg are parallel to both the desktop and a ground surface.
13. The collapsible desk of claim 12 , wherein the first leg and the second leg are pivotally coupled to one another via a scissor joint.
14. The collapsible desk of claim 12 , wherein each of the first leg and the second leg includes a support base, extending from a lower end of each of the first leg and the second leg and contacting a ground surface.
