Abstract
A work support table having a plurality of removable working surfaces or elements. The table may be constructed in sections joined by means such as hinges. Support surface capturing strips or lips may be mounted on each section of the table about the periphery thereof except for that edge or edges along which the section is joined to another section. When the table is folded, the removable work surfaces or elements may be installed within the lips which serve to guide and limit the movement of the work surfaces. When the table is positioned in its opened configuration, the removable work surface elements enter into abutment so that relative movement or removal of the work surface elements is impossible until the table is folded or closed again. The table may be supported by a plurality of adjustable legs so that the work surface height can be controlled at the convenience of a person standing or sitting at the table.

6295669 - Folding, dismountable and telescopic structure

The present invention is a folding and telescopic structure that consists of two parallelograms (1) (2), which can be flattened in opposite directions, located on the same plane and joined articulately by two springs (17) from its front (3) and back (4) jambs. These jambs (3) (4), which are "U" shaped and hollow, allow the end (5) and intermediate (6) crossbars to lodge inside to totally occupy the space available inside the hollow jambs. The end crossbar (5) has a groove (8) in which to slide a first shaft (9) of the back jamb (4) at the same time that a it can turn counter-clockwise upon a second shaft (10) of the front jamb (3) . The intermediate crossbar (6) 15 moves in a similar way, but the hinge (13) that receives the second shaft (12) is not fixed on the intermediate crossbar (6), but can be slid across it. FIG. 1.
