TRANSFORMABLE TABLE
A transformable table includes a base, a transformable platform mounted on the base, a lifting mechanism that drives the transformable platform to move up and down, and an interlocking member that draws the transformable platform to pivot. Thereby, the up and down movements of the lifting mechanism can make the transformable platform pivot accordingly so that the surface of the transformable platform can be selectively posed at different angles required by different applications, thereby allowing the transformable table to be used with versatility.
Collapsible, surface-mounted apparatus
An apparatus configurable between a stowed or collapsed position against a support surface (e.g., wall) and a deployed position extending from the support surface for support of objects thereon. The apparatus is configured to make simultaneous use of first and second perpendicular pivot axes to both rotate the apparatus about the first pivot axis through the support surface and pivot first and second pieces of the apparatus relative to each other about the second pivot axis as the furniture system moves between the stowed and deployed positions. This ergonomic and balanced arrangement advantageously allows users to move the apparatus between the stowed and deployed positions with reduced levels of effort.
Utility table apparatus and method
In the specification and drawings a utility table for mounting to a cooler is described and shown with a work surface; a vertical support member; at least one work surface support rail connected to the work surface and pivotally connected to the vertical support member so that the work surface may pivot from a horizontal position for use and a vertical position for storage and transport; and a mounting bracket configured to securely receive the vertical support member and to be attached to the cooler using the existing structure of the cooler.

SHIFTING AND TILTING DEVICE FOR TABLES IN MULTIPURPOSE VEHICLES
The device (1) for moving a supporting plane (2) between a raised position (H) and a lowered (L), and vice versa, comprises at least one vertical guide (3), in which is slidably engaged a slide (4) associated with the supporting plane (2). Between the vertical guide (3) and the slide (4) is interposed a cinematic lever (5), consisting of a first and a second lever (51, 52), compassed between two configurations, open (A) and closed (C), in correspondence of, respectively, said raised (H) and lowered (L) positions. The first and second levers (51, 52) are also interconnected by means of a gas spring (53), whose expansion push urges said levers (51, 52) to close further when the supporting plane (2) is in said lowered position (L), thus stabilizing it. By manually opening said levers (51, 52) beyond a dead point, the same push of the gas spring (53) tends to open them so as to automatically raise the supporting plane (2); the latter can also be tilted from a horizontal position to a vertical one by means of hinges (6).
Multifunctional folding table
The multifunctional folding table includes a board member, a first support member, and a locking member. The board member is hinged with first support member. The first support member is joined to a wall surface. When the multifunctional folding table is unfolded, the board member is perpendicular to the first support member. A leg frame hinged to an end of the board member adjacent to the first support member rests against the floor. The locking member is disposed to a bottom side of the board member to reliably maintain and lock the board member's unfolded state.

Deployable table assembly
A table assembly movable between stowed and deployed configurations. A base portion is attachable to a surface, and a table portion is moveable between retracted and extended positions. The table portion includes upper and lower surfaces. An arm portion has first and second ends, the first end engaging the base portion and the second end disposed within the table portion. The table portion is slidably moveable along a longitudinal axis of the arm portion between the retracted and extended positions, and rotatable about the longitudinal axis of the arm portion between generally vertical and generally horizontal positions when the table portion is in the extended position.
Folding table
A folding table for an aircraft comprising a supporting device for a tabletop, a pull-out device for moving the supporting device from a vertical stowing position to a horizontal usage position via a pull-out position, wherein the pull-out device has a guiding device for guiding the supporting device between the stowing position and the pull-out position, wherein the guiding device has a linear first guide track for a first guide element on the supporting device and a second guide track for a second guide element on the supporting device, which second guide track has linear and arcuate segments, wherein the supporting device is slid along the linear segment of the second guide track of the guiding device from the stowing position into the pull-out position, and is pivoted along the arcuate segment of the second guide track of the guiding device from the pull-out position into the usage position.
AUTOMOBILE
An automobile, includes: a table stowed at a ceiling of a vehicle cabin; and a table raising and lowering apparatus configured to, resulting from a predetermined operation, raise and lower the table between a usage position at a seat front side of a vehicle occupant seated on a vehicle seat and a stowage position at which the table is stowed at the ceiling.
