A collapsible table assembly (10) is provided that allows a platform table to be easily stowed parallel to a wall when not in use. The collapsible table assembly (10) having a hinged interlocking assembly (24) comprising support arms (20, 22) coupled to a table platform (12). The support arms (20, 22) are capable of guiding the platform (12) from a stowed position, to a deployed position. The hinged interlocking assembly (24) further comprises a first and a second pliant member disposed within the guide groove. The pliant members act to restrict certain directional movement of the hinge axis pin as it travels through the guide groove while the table platform (12) is transitioned from the stowed position to the deployed position, and vice-versa. The pliant members prevent the table platform (12) from collapsing inadvertently, by only allowing the hinge axis pin to travel in one direction throughout the guide groove while transitioning between stowed and deployed position. |
