ABSTRACT

A rail system for a workspace. The system may include at least one mounting
mechanism and an elongated rail. Each mounting mechanism is configured for
attachment to the rail and configured for attachment to an edge of, or a
surface of, a table or desk, so that the mounting mechanism(s) support the
rail relative to said surface. The elongated rail is configured to extend
horizontally relative to and above the surface of the table or desk. The
elongated rail has at least a front surface, a bottom surface/edge, and a back
surface, as well as mounting slots. In some instances, a channel (or trough)
is defined between the front and back surfaces, which extends between first
and second ends of the elongated rail. The rail accommodates placement of
electrical cords to/from a power source, for mounting components (e.g.,
clamps, brackets, release mechanisms) and/or for connecting accessories
thereto.
