[Para 21This invention involves a kind of writing desk whose drawer connects
with the arms support board. To be specific, it is mainly suitable for the
writing desk in
office and family.
Backp,round technolol4y
[Para 3]As is well known, for the person who works bending over one's desk
on the traditional writing desk for a long time, on one hand because a pair of
elbows
and forearms are supported on the rectangle desk panel to read and write, it
must adopt
the sitting posture of excessively leaning forward, which can cause the
hunchback and
eye myopia; on the other hand it makes the muscles of shoulder back, arm and
wrist be
in the tension condition for a long time because of hanging the elbow to
operate the
keyboard and mouse of the computer, thus causing the shoulder periarthritis,
cervical
-1-
CA 02653900 2008-12-09
spondylosis etc.
[Para 4]In recent years, there has appeared the desk structure that there
extends
out the arms support board from the edge of desk panel close to one side of
human
body. The arms support board is that there are set up with one internal
concave arc
shaped gap slightly wider than the waist width of human body in the middle of
traditional rectangle desktop. Both sides of internal concave shape protrude
outwards
oppositely. It is call as the arms support board. When the users carry on the
desktop
homework, their upper body above the waist enters the groove part by the desk,
and the
pair of elbows and forearms are supported on the arms support board of both
sides. The
arms support board is helpful for the users to correct the sitting posture, to
decrease the
fatigue, and makes the persons feel comfortable, and is beneficial to persons'
health.
For example, patent of China, ZL89218825.1, ZL92200155.3, ZL97228199.1, they
adopt the fixed type arms support board, simple structure, reliable, however,
the
occupied space of desktop increases, and it is inconvenient for the users to
come in and
go out; For example, patent of China, ZL99213798.5, ZL03239639.2, for the
adopted
turnover-downward foldable arms support board, the occupied space of desktop
reduces, and it is convenient for the users to come in and go out. However,
while
turning over the arms support board, it needs to occupy the lower space of
desktop.
Thus it has limited the utilization of the lower space of the desk panel. For
example.-
Place the drawer, the cupboard and the host case of computer, etc., in
addition, it needs
to add the supporting structure for the arms support board, and by doing so it
can
maintain the dependability of support of arms support board. In addition,
because the
keyboard of the computer is higher than the desktop, the wrist will not
operate the
keyboard unless upwarping it. The users can't support on the arms support
board with a
pair of elbows and forearms and operate the keyboard of the computer and turn
over,
write the files conveniently at one desk,.

[Para 71]The tenth embodiment of this invention is made out of one drawer ld,
one supporting rack 2d, one piece of desk panel 3d, one piece of arms support
boards
4d and one piece of wedge-shaped block 5d, as shown in Fig. 23 F] 26, among
them:
[Para 72]The big drawer ld is at the underside of desk panel 3d that is
supported
by the supporting rack 2d and it is in the face of the users of the sitting
posture. And the
big drawerld is on the longitudinal guide (not shown in the figure) set up
under the at
desk panel 3d, which can be pushed and pulled backwards and forwards along the
orientation face to the users of sitting posture; The desk panel 3d utilizes
the scalable
or foldable supporting that is supported by the back end of supporting rack 2d
to make
the desk panel 3d reach two kinds of states of horizontal and slope. When the
drawer is
provided for users to work, it can preserve or take out file, tool, etc.
conveniently.
There is one piece of drawer panel 11d in front of the drawer 1d. The above
mentioned
all belongs to the existing technology; The top surface of this drawer panel
11 d is the
inclined top surface whose front end inclines downward by K (approximately 12
or
24 ).
[Para 731The arms support board 4d is formed by the left, right vertical side
edge of the desk panel, the two separated short horizontal edges of front edge
and the
one long horizontal edge of rear edge, and arc-shaped edge of middle part
being
internal concave form. And the arms support board 4d is connected to the top
end
position of internal plate surface of drawer panel lld of drawer ld with the
hinge
(common hinge, or flat plate hinge, or bending hinge) at the side of the long
horizontal
edge position; When the users do not work, the arms support board 4d is inside
the
drawer ld. At this moment, two hinge surface of the hinge are combined
