ABSTRACT:
A foldable article of furniture includes a surrounding top supported frame with a plurality of engaging members secured thereon and extending downwardly therefrom. A plurality of supporting legs have couplers secured on upper sections thereof. A joint interconnects a lower portion of each engaging member and a proximate portion of each coupler such that the proximate portion is turnable and is uprightly movable relative to the lower portion. A locking member is disposed to lock the proximate portion from turning relative to the lower portion when the proximate portion is in an upper position, and to set the proximate portion free from being locked when the proximate portion is in a lower position. A biasing member biases the proximate portion upwardly.
