Abstract

A worksurface support assembly for use with a worksurface. The worksurface assembly includes a plurality of legs extending upward from a base surface to a bottom surface of the worksurface. A plurality of crossbeams are connected to the legs. A plurality of clamps interconnect the crossbeams and the legs such that the legs are capable of angular movement relative to one another prior to connection to the worksurface.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
We claim:  
     
         1 . A worksurface support assembly for use with a worksurface comprising: 
 a plurality of legs extending upward from a base surface to a bottom surface of the worksurface;    a plurality of crossbeams connected to the legs; and    a plurality of clamps interconnecting the crossbeams and the legs such that the legs are capable of angular movement relative to one another prior to connection to the worksurface.    
     
     
         2 . The worksurface support assembly of  claim 1  wherein the clamp comprises a male portion and a female portion.  
     
     
         3 . The worksurface support assembly of  claim 2  wherein the female portion includes a plurality of tabs and the male portion includes a plurality of projecting fingers.  
     
     
         4 . The worksurface support assembly of  claim 3  wherein the clamps further comprise a circular opening adapted to receive a leg.  
     
     
         5 . The worksurface support assembly of  claim 4  wherein the clamp includes a portion adapted to be attached to one of the cross beams.  
     
     
         6 . The worksurface support assembly of  claim 5  wherein the clamps are formed from ABS plastic.  
     
     
         7 . A dividing member for a workspace comprising; 
 a first wing and a second wing, the wings are attached to a support member adjacent to a worksurface and are formed in a symmetrical shape and extending outward away from each other in order to provide a user with visual privacy.    
     
     
         8 . The dividing member of  claim 7  wherein the wings are formed from a wire frame connected to the support member.  
     
     
         9 . The dividing member of  claim 8  wherein a cover material is stretched between adjacent sides of the wire frame.  
     
     
         10 . The dividing member of  claim 9  wherein the wire frame is interconnected to the support member through a clamp.  
     
     
         11 . The dividing member of  claim 10  wherein the wings extend in opposite directions.  
     
     
         12 . The dividing member of  claim 11  wherein the wings extend above a worksurface.  
     
     
         13 . A worksurface assembly comprising: 
 a worksurface having a first appearance on a first side and a second appearance on a second side, the first appearance being different than the second appearance;    a plurality of legs extending upward from a base surface to a bottom surface of the worksurface;    a plurality of crossbeams connected to the legs; and    a plurality of clamps interconnecting the crossbeams and the legs.    
     
     
         14 . The worksurface assembly of  claim 13  wherein the first side and second side have a coaxial opening extending therethrough.  
     
     
         15 . The worksurface assembly of  claim 14  wherein at least one of the legs is adapted to be aligned with the coaxial opening.  
     
     
         16 . The worksurface assembly of  claim 15  wherein a fastening element extends from the first side through the second side of the worksurface and into a leg.  
     
     
         17 . The worksurface assembly of  claim 16  further comprising a plate adapted to fit within the coaxial opening.  
     
     
         18 . A storage member comprising: 
 a generally rectangular housing having a generally soft and generally flexible material forming an outer shell extending over substantially the entire surface thereof, the housing sized to accommodate a plurality of files;    a base having a plurality of wheels; and    a plurality of pockets attached to the outer shell and formed from a netting material capable of supporting an object that can be visually identified through the netting material.    
     
     
         19 . The storage member of  claim 18  wherein the outer shell is formed from CORDURA™.  
     
     
         20 . The storage member of  claim 19  wherein the outer shell is attached to the housing using a VELCRO™ material.  
     
     
         21 . The storage member of  claim 20  wherein the netting is formed from a polyester mesh.  
     
     
         22 . The storage member of  claim 21  wherein the outer shell includes a top surface that is generally capable of being detached from at least one of the side surfaces.  
     
     
         23 . The storage member of  claim 22  wherein the outer shell further comprises a zipper to provide for detachment of the top surface from at least one of the side surfaces.  
     
     
         24 . The storage member of  claim 23  wherein the outer shell further comprises a front surface that is capable of being at least partially detached from at least one of the side surfaces.
