摘要

#CMT# #/CMT# The table has leaves, each with a foldable plate fixed on a linear displacement system and a movable part sliding along a fixed part. Each plate has curved flexible blades spaced to form concentric arcs relative to the table center. The blades, in folded position, form a homogeneous plane surface. The blades offer maximum resistance to a vertical force and minimal resistance to a horizontal force. A re-sizable structure (18), with beams (32) and small girders (29), receives the leaves to assemble the plates with the table legs (23), where the girders are integrated to the legs. #CMT#USE : #/CMT# Foldable circular table. #CMT#ADVANTAGE : #/CMT# The re-sizable leaf receiving structure has the beams and small girders that are integrated to the legs, thus forming a rigid structure for the table such that the table is enlargeable in its useful surface area without losing its circular character. The table therefore permits to modulate its reception capacity in a rapid and simple manner. The re-sizable receiving structure assembles the plate with the legs of the table in order to avoid the overhangs and to control the enlargement. The curved flexible blades are spaced to form concentric arcs with respect to the center of the table, thus allowing the plates to interpenetrate irrespective of the position of separation of the leaves. #CMT#DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS : #/CMT# The drawing shows a top view of a foldable circular table. 18 : Re-sizable leaf receiving structure 23 : Table legs 29 : Small girders 30 : Horizontal rotation hinges 32 : Beams.
