ABSTRACT:
An adjustable table is provided for use with a hospital bed and which allows a person reclining in the bed to easily change the angle of inclination of the table surface. The planar member is rotatably connected at one end to and extended horizontally outward from a vertical support member by means of frictionally engaged gripping elements. Lifting up on the free end of the planar member disengages the gripping elements whereby the planar member can thereafter be freely tilted or rotated about its longitudinal axis to a selected angle of inclination. Lowering the free end of the planar member to its original position re-engages the gripping elements to fix the planar member at the selected angle of inclination.
