An operator-interactive adjustable workstation including a support frame, a seat adapted for engagement with an operator, and a worksurface having an enlarged upper surface. A motion connecting structure connects between the frame, seat and worksurface for permitting the positions of the seat and worksurface to be simultaneously adjusted relative to the frame. An operator-interactive structure interconnects to the connecting structure for controlling position-adjusting movement of the seat and worksurface in response to an operator-imposed controlling force. A manually-releasable brake cooperates with the connecting structure for normally maintaining it in a fixed positional relationship to define stationary positions for the seat and worksurface.

[ The embodiments of the invention in which an exclusive property or privilege is claimed are defined as follows:] [1.] An operator-interactive adjustable workstation, comprising:a stationary support frame supporting the workstation on a floor;a seat adapted for engagement with the buttocks of an operator;a generally horizontally enlarged worksurface having a substantially enlarged and planar upper surface;a motion connecting structure movably and controllingly connected to and between said frame, said seat and said worksurface for permitting said seat and worksurface to be simultaneously adjusted to multiple positions relative to said frame while simultaneously relatively moving said seat and worksurface to change the positional relationship therebetween, said motion connecting structure having a cantilevered seat support member pivotally connected to said frame, a worksurface support member movably connected to said frame, and a link member connected to both said seat and worksurface support member, said seat support member supporting said seat above a floor surface, and said worksurface support member supporting said worksurface;an operator-interactive structure interconnected to said motion connecting structure for controlling position-adjusting movement of said seat and worksurface in response to an operator-applied controlling displacement, said operator-interactive structure including a support member which is engaged by the operator and to which the operator applies said controlling displacement; anda manually-releasable brake cooperating with the motion connecting structure for normally maintaining said motion connecting structure in a fixed positional relationship to define stationary positions for the seat and worksurface;whereby, when said brake is manually released, said motion controlling structure can be moved in accordance with the controlling applied displacement by the operator on the support member to adjustably move the seat and worksurface to newly adjusted positions, whereupon said brake is reengaged to hold the seat and worksurface in the newly adjusted positions.
