ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a foldable table having a pair of generally "I"-shaped legs pivotally mounted to the underside of a table top and movable between a folded storage position in which the legs are parallel to the table top, and an operative position in which the legs are normal to the table top. At least one downwardly extending member having notches is mounted to the underside of the table top to receive the tops of the table legs when they are in their unfolded, operative position. A trestle bar connects the two table legs between their tops and bottoms, and a movable bracket assembly is mounted to the top of each leg for pivoting the legs into different notches in the member when the legs are unfolded. The movable bracket assembly carries latches which are aligned with and insertable into slots on the tops of the table legs when the legs are in their unfolded, operative positions.
