Table having multiple table top elevations

摘要

A universal table having utility at different elevations which includes a top, leg means and brace means. The pair of leg means are pivotally mounted to the top and to a secondary member located vertically downwardly from the pivotal connection to the top. Each pair of leg means extends angularly upwardly and inwardly to the point of connection with the top and has pivotally secured thereto, at a point intermediate the ends, a brace means which extends upwardly and outwardly and has its upper end portion pivotally connected to the table top. The brace means may alternatively be composed of two aligned pivotaly connected brace means or a pair of telescopically interconnected members such that when a table is in a lower position, the brace members are in a semi-folded condition or telescoped. In the upright position, the pivotable brace members are aligned and the telescopic brace members would be extended to their maximum. The table top is formed of two halves which are relatively movable, toward each other as the upper portion of the legs move toward each other and away from each other, to have the space therebetween to be occupied by a separate member when the table is in its uppermost position, and the uppermost ends of the legs are separated by a greater distance.
