A folding table has two table top portions. A pair of spaced apart arms extends from each table top portion. Each arm is connected to a respective one of four legs. Two sets of two legs are pivotably connected so that each connected pair of legs can be completely aligned with one another or in a crisscrossed position. A handle connected to and between the upper ends of two of the legs has at least one slot which is positioned and configured to receive a hook that extends from the bottom surface of the first table top portion. When the hook is in the slot the hook prevents the first table top portion from moving away from the legs when that table top portion is lifted upward and can also prevent the first table top portion from moving in a direction parallel to the second table top portion.

This invention generally represents a folding and transforming furniture, such as a transforming tabletop and seating surface apparatus that stays clean and used indoors, outdoors, within vehicles, aircrafts, water vessels, for commercial and recreational purposes. The invention refers in particular to an automated assembly of folding tabletop surface, seating surfaces, covers, general frame and extension assembly embedded compactly within a substantially horizontal surface, and controlled by internet of things system, controllers and electrical circuits by receiving signals from embedded sensory equipment to activate electrically, pneumatically, hydraulically and gravity powered mechanisms.

A portable modular folding table can include a substantially flat tabletop having three or more tabletop sections, hinges coupled to the tabletop sections, and collapsible legs that are modular and separate from the tabletop. The tabletop can have a width and a length that is at least twice as large as the width, and the tabletop sections are coupled to and foldable onto each other to reduce the length of the tabletop by less than half when the tabletop is reduced from a fully extended configuration to a fully compacted configuration. Each of the collapsible legs can be adjustable to multiple different heights and can have multiple tabletop support points. The tabletop can rest atop the tabletop support points when the tabletop is in a fully extended configuration and the tabletop can be separated from and stored alongside the collapsible legs when the tabletop is in a fully compacted configuration.

A furnishing construction and a method accomplish selective conversion of the furnishing between a compact folded structure providing a valet stand, and an expanded unfolded structure providing a luggage rack. The folded structure easily is stored in a minimal space, and readily is moved to a convenient location to serve as a valet stand, or unfolded to serve as a luggage rack.
