Benefits of technology

[0015] The link member is provided with a spring which can urge the movable top panel toward an opened state, so that even if the movable top panel is prematurely released at the time of closing, the movable top panel does not bang shut. It is preferable that one of the link members connected to each support block, particularly the link member positioned at the rear side of the movable top panel, is rotatably connected to a shaft which is supported by a bearing attached to each support block. It is also preferable that a rotary damper is provided to dampen or restrict the forward and backward rotations of the shaft. Then, in addition

Problems solved by technology

Consequently, the standing angle of the computer display may be limited.
A user is not able to freely adjust the angle of the computer display.
Thus, the desk may be expensive and require a significant amount of space for installation.
Moreover, open

Embodiment Construction

[0025] Referring to FIGS. 1, 2 and 3, a classroom desk 100 of a present embodiment is provided with a movable top panel 1 and a fixed top panel 2. The movable top panel 1 is capable of being opened and closed. The movable top panel 1 covers the fixed top panel 2 on which a small-sized computer 30 is mounted. The fixed top panel 2 is supported by a support member 3a which is fixed to an upper end of a leg 3 and extends toward the front of the desk 100 (to the right in FIG. 3). A support box 10 is provided on each of the right and left sides along the back portion of the fixed top panel 2. A top surface of each support box 10 is made flat. A bottom end of the leg 3 is secured to the floor of a classroom. A connection panel and a modesty panel are provided to connect the right and left legs 3.

[0026] The movable top panel 1 is connected to each support box 10 by a first link member 4 and a second link member 5. The movable top panel 1, in a closed state, is parallel to the fixed top pa...

Abstract

A classroom desk is provided at a low cost which does not restrict a positioning angle of a computer display and offers an unobstructed front view when a movable top panel is open. The classroom desk is suitable for a class requiring the occasional use of a small-sized computer. The desk comprises a fixed top panel on which the computer is mounted, and movable top panel which covers and hides the computer. The movable top panel is connected to the fixed top panel by first and second link members and is arranged to stand vertically at the back of the desk in such a manner that about half of a depth of the movable top panel is located below the height of the fixed top panel.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0001] This invention relates to a desk for classroom use in which a small-sized computer may be mounted at all times. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] Along with the spread of small-sized computers, many schools have introduced classes using small-sized computers, and classroom desks in which small-sized computers, such as laptops, are disposed. [0003] Japanese Design Registration No. 1094712 illustrates a first example of such classroom desks. The desk is provided with a movable top panel which covers and hides a small-sized computer located on the desktop. In classes requiring the use of the computer, one can simply swing open the movable top panel to unhide the computer. [0004] Japanese Utility Model No. 2555572 discloses a second example of this type of classroom desk. In this example, while open, the movable top panel can be stored vertically in a back space of the desk. [0005] In the desk of the first example as shown in FIG. 5, a movable top panel 21...
