ABSTRACT:
A flat top table has opposed pairs of legs disposed in spaced relation from the periphery of the table top when in their extended upright positions. Each pair of legs is mounted on a rigid cross bar pivotally supported on a first axis of a frame secured to the underside of the table top. Rotatable handle means mounted on said frame and rotatable about a second pivotal axis are coupled to the legs at the first pivotal axis by an eccentric linkage whereby the legs are locked in either their upright position, or in a folded position at ninety degrees thereto, whenever the handle means is rotated beyond the pivotal center of said eccentric linkage. The foregoing abstract is not to be taken either as a complete exposition or as a limitation of the present invention. In order to understand the full nature and extent of the technical disclosure of this application, reference must be had to the following detailed description and the accompanying drawings as well as to the claims.
