<p>A table has extension leaves 26 secured to opposite edges of the table top by hinges 30. The hinges include a first hinge member 84 which is secured to the leaf and a second hinge member 90 which is connected to the table top and is slidable in a channel 104 relative to the table top. The first and second hinge members are pivotally connected to one another by a pivot pin 96 carried by the slidable second hinge member and received within an elongated slot 88 of the first hinge member. A rigid stop 100 is secured to the second hinge member and spaced away from the pivot pin 96 a distance such that the stop prevents pivotable movement of the leaf when the latter is vertical and the pivot pin 96 abuts the end 89 of the slot 88. The second hinge members 90 of hinges on opposite sides of the table may be connected by a spring (110, figure 4). <IMAGE></p> |
