ABSTRACT:
A generally rectangular tray having a pair of legs pivoted on the tray at opposite sides thereof for swinging between a folded position and an unfolded position in which the legs extend down from the tray for supporting it. Each leg has spaced apart side portions interconnected for resilient springing movement of the side portions with respect to one another, latches engageable by the legs for releasably latching the legs in folded position and actuators operable by a person holding the tray at opposite sides thereof for springing the side portions of each leg with respect to one another to move the legs out of latching engagement with their respective latches. This disengagement enables the legs to swing down by gravity from their folded position to their unfolded position for supporting the tray.
