Office desk
Office desks, tables for office purposes and workstations are generally in various configurations, e.g. in an elongated, encircling or compact configuration and generally are defined for the intended configuration with a table surface of the desired configuration and pedestals and/or legs upon which the platform is mounted. A conventional desk generally includes a top with four legs and a drawer unit is put beside the desk so that the computer, the facsimile machine, the telephone and the document tray are put one the top of the desk. Modern office floor plans increasingly call for an open office furniture system wherein free standing furniture elements are linked together to form work space areas for the individual workers. Modular office desk units are combined to form a work space area in which individual components are attached to the desk units to form a personalized work space. These desk units often comprise an L-shape. Office desk use of various types of electrical or electronic type of equipment has long been common place, though with the wide spread use of computers and their accompanying CRT or other computer output display devices, the use of such equipment, particularly for automation, has become increasingly popular to the professional in particular and the business world in general. Modern office work, and in particular the increasing use of word and data processing with its great variety of peripheral equipment, such as computer displays, mass storages and printers of different types, require a plurality of office desks of different construction to optimize their application. Terminals with computer keyboard, for example, require desks the table tops of which are composed of different sections arranged at different heights, while desks for printers need not necessarily offer large surfaces but should have certain facilities. Office furniture desks specifically designed to electrically power such equipment commonly have electrical outlet receptacles under the desk top, and frequently on or in the front of the desk rear paneling or housing structure that is provided for this purpose along the back side of the desk, below the desk top, as distinguished from the front side of the desk. More commonly the desk has no electrical receptacle, but usually one is available in the vicinity of the desk.
