Assembly for the separation of multiple computers and the establishment of work stations

Abstract

An assembly for separating multiple computers is disclosed. The assembly comprises vertical dividers suspended from horizontal supports which, in turn, are supported by free-standing side supports. The assembly is relatively inexpensive, provides privacy to students using a computer, and may be retrofitted onto existing computer tables wherein several computers may rest.

1 . An assembly for separating multiple computers comprising:
 at least two free-standing side supports;   at least one substantially horizontal divider support extending between the at least two side supports; and   at least one substantially vertical divider located between the at least two side supports and suspended by the at least one horizontal divider support.   
   
   
       2 . The assembly of  claim 1 , wherein the height of the at least one vertical divider is adjustable. 
   
   
       3 . The assembly of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one vertical divider is adjustable along a length of the at least one horizontal divider support. 
   
   
       4 . The assembly of  claim 1 , wherein the at least two side supports each comprise at least one vertical support member and at least one horizontal support member. 
   
   
       5 . The assembly of  claim 1 , comprising three of the horizontal divider supports. 
   
   
       6 . The assembly of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one vertical divider comprises at least one aperture through which the at least one horizontal divider support passes through. 
   
   
       7 . The assembly of  claim 1 , further comprising at least one collar disposed about the at least one horizontal divider support and adjacent to the at least one vertical support member. 
   
   
       8 . The assembly of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one vertical divider is structured and arranged to rest on a desk or table upon which the computers are located. 
   
   
       9 . The assembly of  claim 1 , wherein the free-standing side supports are structured and arranged to rest on a floor. 
   
   
       10 . The assembly of  claim 1 , wherein the free-standing side supports are adjustable in height. 
   
   
       11 . The assembly of  claim 1 , further comprising a third free-standing side support located between the at least two free-standing side supports. 
   
   
       12 . The assembly of  claim 1 , wherein the assembly is structured and arranged to separate four computers. 
   
   
       13 . The assembly of  claim 12 , wherein the four computers are located on two desks or tables. 
   
   
       14 . The assembly of  claim 12 , wherein each of the four computers is located on a separate desk or table. 
   
   
       15 . The assembly of  claim 12 , wherein the four computers are located on a single desk or table. 
   
   
       16 . The assembly of  claim 1 , wherein the assembly is structured and arranged to separate eight computers. 
   
   
       17 . The assembly of  claim 16 , wherein the eight computers are located on at least two separate desks or tables. 
   
   
       18 . An assembly for separating multiple computers comprising:
 at least two free-standing side supports;   at least one substantially horizontal divider support extending between the at least two side supports;   at least one substantially vertical divider located between the at least two side supports and suspended by the at least one horizontal divider support; and   at least one desk or table located between the at least two free-standing side supports upon which computers are located.   
   
   
       19 . The assembly of  claim 18 , wherein the computers are located on one desk or table. 
   
   
       20 . The assembly of  claim 18 , wherein each computer is located on a separate desk or table.
