ABSTRACT:
A piece of furniture having at least one flap pivotable to a flat open position, as the flap of a sewing machine cabinet, and including a support device for the flap in such operative flat position. This support device advantageously strengthens the portion of the piece of furniture to which the flap is pivotally connected, is adapted to be readily added to an existing piece of furniture, and retracts to an unconspicuous inoperative position inside the body of the piece of furniture. This piece of furniture comprises a flap pivoted to the top thereof, a bracket fixed against the lower face of the top, a body of sliding resistant material secured to the bracket, and a supporting arm slidable endwise through this body of sliding resistant material and outwardly extendable in operative supporting position against the lower face of the flap outwardly extending in flat open position.
