ABSTRACT:
Parallel links pivotally connect each end of a tabletop to a table base so that the top can be swung in level attitude elevationally and laterally relative to the base. A tie rod synchronizes the movement of links at opposite ends of the top to maintain such links in alignment for smooth swinging of the top. When the top is swung upward and outward from a position centrally of the table base, mechanism responsive to such swinging of the top automatically projects a stabilizing foot outward beyond the side of the base toward which the top moves, and such mechanism retracts such foot into the base when the top is swung downward and inward.
