<p>A folding table (2) of robust construction having a reinforced picture-frame edge and underside elongate chassis members (24, 26) running along the length thereof, the chassis member (26) pivotally supporting two pairs of legs (6) and opposed track elements (40, 46) associated with each pair of legs. The track elements (40, 46) accommodate followers (50) attached to opposite ends (52, 53) of a connecting element (52) to which are fixedly secured legs (56, 58) of a support frame (54), legs (56, 58) of which pivotally connect the connecting element (52) to the legs (6) so that movement of the followers (50) in said track elements causes movement of the pairs of legs (6) between a first inoperative position and a second operative position. Latching means (70) are provided to lock each pair of legs (6) in one or other of their inoperative and operative positions and damper means (90, 140) are provided on each leg (32, 36) to prevent rapid movement of legs (32, 36) between said positions.</p> |
