ABSTRACT:
The disclosed invention is illustrated as a table, but it may also be embodied in a stool or a chair. It comprises an at least generally planar support surface, a legs subassembly comprising pivotably interlocked rectangular frames, means for releasably attaching the legs subassembly to the underside of the support surface with the rectangles pivoted to an open position to serve as supports, and means for releasably attaching the legs subassembly to the underside of the support surface with the rectangles pivoted to a closed position, generally parallel to the support surface. In the latter position, one side of the rectangles is positioned beyond the support surface and can function conveniently as a handle for carrying the device.
