Abstract
An adjustable table is provided which includes a table top disposed a predetermined distance above a supporting surface. This table top provides a work surface and support for office machinery such as a visual display terminal. The table also includes an adjustable platform which may support a detachable keyboard or similar devices. A unique linkage system supports this platform and allows the operator to adjust the platform to a desired elevation and to lock it in place using an actuating and brake assembly while maintaining maximum clear knee space beneath the platform.
