Abstract:
In combination, first and second tables positioned adjacent each other and defining substantially horizontal worksurfaces and respectively vertically supported by pluralities of first and second leg assemblies above a floor, said first and second leg assemblies each including a vertically elongate leg member and a height adjustable glide movably mounted at a lower end of said leg member and projecting downwardly therefrom for contact with a floor, said glide being adjustable between first and second positions defining first minimum and maximum heights of said leg assemblies, castors being respectively mounted to said glides on said first leg assemblies so as to define a second minimum height of said first leg assemblies, said second minimum height being greater than said first maximum height, and spacers respectively removably mounted to lower free ends of said second leg assemblies to define a second maximum height of said second leg assemblies, each said spacer including an elongate axial cylinder, a disk-shaped flange extending outwardly of said cylinder, and a skirt cantilevered from an outer periphery of said flange, a free edge of said skirt and a lower end of said cylinder being adapted to contact the floor, said skirt defining the height of said spacer which is added to said second leg assemblies so as to determine said second maximum height, said second maximum height being greater than or equal to said second minimum height, and said first and second leg assemblies being adjusted to a same height which at least equals said second minimum height so as to horizontally align the worksurfaces defined by said first and second tables.
