LOCKING MECHANISM FOR A TABLE LEG ASSEMBLY
A table may include a tabletop and a support structure sized and configured to support the tabletop above a surface. The support structure may be movable between use and collapsed positions relative to the tabletop, and a locking mechanism may lock the support structure in a fixed position relative to the tabletop. The locking mechanism may include a locking member eccentrically rotatable relative to a lower portion of the tabletop, and the locking member may be rotatable between a locked position in which the locking member engages a locking notch and an unlocked position in which the locking member is spaced part from the locking notch. The locking mechanism may a control mechanism that facilitates movement of the locking member between the locked and unlocked positions. A retaining assembly may be sized and configured to retain the control mechanism in a fixed position.
Frame and table having structure for reducing vibration
A table includes a table panel, first and second mounting members, and first and second leg assemblies. Each of the first and second mounting members is coupled or formed with the table panel. Each of the first and second leg assemblies includes a linking member having an end portion rotatably coupled with the first mounting member and another end portion rotatably coupled with the second mounting member. When the first or second leg assembly is unfolded, the linking member abuts one or more retainers of the table panel and forms interference fit with the first and second mounting members. This significantly reduces vibration when the table is in use.
PORTABLE FIRE PIT
The disclosure includes a portable fire pit comprising a housing, a first pair of wheels operatively coupled to a front portion of the housing, a second pair of wheels operatively coupled to a rear portion of the housing, and a fire pit coupled to a top portion of the housing, wherein the fire pit comprises at least one solid vertical wall. In some embodiments, the portable fire pit also includes a cover that converts to a table, as well as a suspension grate to hold firewood and a grill rack to hold food above the fire pit. The grill rack may be configured to be located at different heights above the fire pit, and may also be configured to rotate between positions directly over and to the side of the fire pit.

Modular Shelf
A shelf or storage rack includes a top defined by a pair of elongated members held at a spaced distance from one another by a pair of frame end members and at least two frame cross-members respectively disposed at a spaced distance from each of the pair of frame end members to define a plurality of spaced slots. A left side support and a right side support are each defined by elongated support members held by at least one support cross-member, wherein at least a portion of the elongated support members has a first end including a protrusion and an adjoining support ledge and an opposed second end including a notch or groove. The protrusions and notches or grooves interact to provide a vertically stackable modular shelf or storage rack system.
Flip top table
A flip top table includes a leg assembly supporting an axle defining a rotation axis extending in a longitudinal direction. A strike plate is non-rotatably secured to the axle, with the strike plate having first and second circumferentially spaced and radially extending stop surfaces. A worksurface is rotatably supported on the axle and includes first and second circumferentially spaced stop surfaces. The worksurface is rotatable about the rotation axis between a use position and a stowed position. A latch assembly is coupled to and rotatable with the worksurface between the use and stowed positions. The latch assembly includes a lock bolt moveable in the longitudinal direction between a disengaged position, wherein the lock bolt is longitudinally displaced from the strike plate, and an engaged position, wherein the lock bolt engages the second stop surface of the strike plate when the worksurface is in the use position. An actuation mechanism is also provided.

Portable folding table
A portable folding table system with folding and slide locking mechanism that secures the folding table in both storage and in-use position and can be wearable on a person. The table comprises at least two panels, with hinges between the section such that they may be folded along the intersections of the panels until the folding table is the size of one panel. Additionally, the table panels incorporate sliding locking mechanisms operable to lock the table in an unfolded position. Other features include: a cup holder operable to adjust for various sizes of beverage containers, strap attachment points operable to allow the table to be strapped to a person and kept level, and telescoping legs operable to be attached to the table and used to support it.
STAND FOR PEAKED ROOF AND THE LIKE
A stand providing a horizontal support surface upon a sloping peak includes a central support having a top surface and bottom surface with opposing end portions, and adjustably extendible legs attached in spaced relation to the bottom surface of the central support and end supports. The central support and end supports are connected by a hinge having a range of motion limiting upward movement of the end supports to a horizontal position with the central support. Each of the central and end supports have spaced adjustably extendible legs attached to the bottom surface whereby the central support and the respective end supports can be aligned to provide a horizontal support surface on a sloping peak by adjustment of said extendible legs, regardless of the angles of declination from the peak.
PLUMBER'S PLATFORM
The invention of the present disclosure is that of a plumber's platform for supporting the back of a plumber or the like when replacing various plumbing fixtures under a sink, such as a kitchen or bathroom sink. In certain embodiments, a plumber's platform according to the present disclosure may be formed of a hard plastic material such as via thermoplastic molding, and may be configured with fixed or adjustable supports such as legs or feet of various types. In preferred embodiments, a plumber's platform according to the present disclosure may be configured as a lid for a toolbox of appropriate dimensions and may be affixed thereto by various means. A plumber's platform may be unitary, having legs of fixed length, or may comprise extendable or adjustable legs of the same or varying lengths. In preferred embodiments, the platform may comprise one or more tool troughs and a carrying handle cutout.
