摘要 |
A table construction (Fig.1) includes a base (41) having a pair of legs (42, 43) secured together by a transverse beam (44), and a tabletop (45) pivoted to a top of the legs (42, 43) for movement between a horizontal use position and a vertical storage position. A pair of support arms (47, 48) are pivoted to the top of the legs (42, 43) for selectively holding the tabletop (45) in the horizontal use position. The support arms (47, 48) are spring-biased and pivoted at an angle so that they counterbalance a weight of the tabletop (45) during its pivotal movement. Ganging connectors (51, 53) on opposite ends of the tabletop (45) automatically interconnect adjacent tables upon pushing adjacent tables together. The legs (42, 43) each include first and second castings that bolt together and that are arranged to matably nest when tables are moved together for storage.
