Desktop/monitor combination

Abstract

Desktop/monitor combination which can be connected to a frame. The desktop ( 4 ) is provided with a recess ( 5 ) for accommodating the monitor. The monitor ( 2 ) can be moved between an inactive position in which the side which is turned away from the monitor acts as a desktop part accommodated in the desktop and an operative position in which it is moved upwards, out of said desktop. In this case, an auxiliary desktop part ( 14 ) is provided which fills the resulting opening. The monitor is connected to the desktop by means of pivot arms ( 7 ) which, on the one hand, engage with the monitor and, on the other hand, are hingedly connected to the rear side of the desktop.
