ABSTRACT:
A foldable tray table for supporting a variety of articles, including beverages in cans or tumblers, has a rigid, generally rectangular table top having one or more openings therethrough shaped and dimensioned to accept a beverage can or a book. The openings are not bottomed and are incapable of supporting an article placed therein until two pairs of legs pivotally joined to the table top near respective ends thereof are moved to their in-use position to support the table top horizontally at which a horizontal cross bar which integrally joins the legs of each pair is brought into position below a respective opening. The article is supported from the bottom by the cross bar, which is spaced some distance from the under surface of the table top, and is perimetrically supported by an edge or edges of an opening.
