Circular table top with radial segments enlarged by inserting leaves between them, used e.g. in meetings

摘要

The table has a circular top and a central leg and the top is made from identical radial segments (3a-3d). These have slides (6) which move in rails on a support (4) that is joined to the leg. The longitudinal axis of the rails is along the bisectors (Ba-Bd) of the angle at the tip of each segment. To enlarge the top the segments are slid outwards and identical leaves (12) are inserted between the segments. The inner ends of the leaves are pointed (13) and they meet at the centre of the table.
