- The present invention relates to wall-mountable workstations and to wall-mountable workstations that contain electronic equipment, such as computer equipment.
- 2. Description of the Related Art
- Wall-mountable workstations that include a security door that may be selectively opened for use and subsequently closed when not in use are known in the art. Such workstations often house a computer keyboard and/or monitor. When not in use, the security door is closed to secure the keyboard and/or monitor within the workstation housing. These workstations are particularly useful in medical facilities, such as a hospital room, where doctors and technicians demand convenient and secure access to a computer.
- While wall-mountable computing workstations have been well received, conventional designs suffer from a number of limitations. For example, conventional workstations often fix the computer monitor and keyboard in a predetermine position, such as facing the user within the workstation housing. A fixed configuration limits a user's ability to orient the keyboard and/or monitor in a convenient position, such as position facing a patient during a conversation. For at least this reason, improved wall mountable workstations are desired that overcome limitations of the prior art.
- A wall-mountable workstation for electronic equipment is provided. In an embodiment, the wall-mountable workstation includes a housing having an electronic equipment storage compartment. A door is connected to the housing and is adapted to move between a closed position in which the electronic equipment storage compartment is closed and an open position in which the electronic equipment storage compartment is open. The workstation also includes an articulating arm having a first end non-movably secured within the housing and a second end adapted to support the electronic equipment for adjustable movement between a user-selected extended position away from the electronic equipment storage compartment and a retracted storage position within the electronic equipment storage compartment.
