Abstract:
An article of furniture used to support a computer terminal or a similar object having means to continuously adjust in a stepless fashion the table top height through the operation of a single operating lever located just beneath the table top which can be operated from a seated or standing position. Swinging the operating lever in one direction in the horizontal plane releases an adjustable length gas spring controlling table top height, allowing for the raising or lowering of the table top which is followed by the return of the operating lever to its original position which locks gas spring at its new length and rigidly locks the table top at its adjusted height.
