The present disclosure relates to a support system for a gaming table including a first support bar of a gaming-table support, a second support bar of a gaming-table support, a third support bar of a gaming-table support, and a gaming-table support locking apparatus. The third support bar has an arcuate shape and is in a pivotable connection with the second support bar. The gaming-table support locking apparatus includes a first locking bar and a second locking bar. The second locking bar is configured to be in one of two states of being: a first state that allows the third support bar to rotate with respect to the second support bar; and a second state that prevents the third support bar to rotate with respect to the second support bar.

Disclosed are control mechanisms, frames and tables. A slider includes a sleeve, a pivoting portion and a controller. The sleeve is configured to slidably couple with a first bar, and a first hole and a pillar are formed at a first side wall of the sleeve. The pivoting portion is integrally formed or coupled with the first side wall of the sleeve, and configured to pivotally couple with a second bar. The controller is disposed side by side with the pivoting portion along a longitudinal direction of the sleeve, and configured to control movement of the sleeve along the first bar. The controller includes a casing, a lever pivotally connected with the casing, a pin integrally formed or coupled with the lever, and an elastic member selectively pushing the pin into the first hole and a hole of the first bar, thereby restricting movement of the sleeve with respect to the first bar.

A table includes a tabletop and a frame supporting the tabletop. The frame includes a mounting assembly, first and second leg assemblies coupled with the mounting assembly, and first and second supporting assemblies to control rotation of the first and second leg assemblies. The frame also includes one or more couplers disposed at a mounting member of the mounting assembly to connect the mounting assembly with the first and second supporting assemblies or to connect the mounting assembly with the tabletop.

Disclosed are pivoting mechanisms, sliding mechanisms, frames and tables. A pivoting mechanism includes a first coupling piece, a second coupling piece and a rod. The first and second coupling pieces are pivotally coupled with each other. The rod is operated by gravity to automatically lock or unlock the first and second coupling pieces. A sliding mechanism generally includes a slider and a locking member. The slider includes a sleeve to be slidably coupled with a bar. The locking member includes a restriction piece, operated by an elastic piece to be disposed inside of the bar, to automatically lock the sleeve at a certain position of the bar.

A foldable table includes a first tabletop panel, a second tabletop panel, and a reinforcing frame which includes first through fourth reinforcing members mounted along longitudinal sides of the first and second tabletop panels respectively, a first transverse member transversely extended between outer end portions of the first and second reinforcing members at the first tabletop panel, and a second transverse member transversely extended between outer end portions of the third and fourth reinforcing members at the second tabletop panel. Two ends of the first transverse member are affixed to the first and second reinforcing members in a non-rotatably movable manner. Two ends of the second transverse member are affixed to the third and fourth reinforcing members in a non-rotatably movable manner. Therefore, the first and second transverse members enhance the rigidity of the reinforcement frame to support two transverse sides of the first and second tabletop panels respectively.

A table may be sized and configured to nest with another table to reduce a height of a plurality of stacked tables in a nested configuration. The table may include a nesting portion formed in an upper surface and sidewall of the table top. The table may also include a frame with one or more engaging portions sized and configured to be disposed in the nesting portion of an adjacent table when the tables are nested together. In addition, the table top may include a compression edge sized and configured to be disposed in a nesting portion of an adjacent table when the tables are nested together. The compression edge and engaging portions may be sized and configured to be simultaneously disposed in the nesting portion of the adjacent table when the table is nested with the adjacent table.

A telescopic lifting column (1) preferably for furniture, such as height adjustable tables and beds, and comprising at least two mutually telescopic members (2,3,4) and an electric drive unit (5, 10;41,42) for adjusting the telescopic members. The lifting column comprises a telescopic cable guiding device (22;45, 58, 80, 103) for guiding at least one electric cable (29), where the telescopic cable guiding device extends between or in all essentials between the lower and upper end of the lifting column and is connected thereto so that the telescopic cable guiding device collaborates in the telescopic adjustment of the lifting column. Thus the cables may be guided in a protected manner.
