Locking mechanism for a folding table
A foldable table may include a tabletop and legs that are movable between an extended position and a collapsed position. The tabletop may include a first section and a second section that are connected by a hinge assembly. A locking mechanism may be sized and configured to lock the hinge assembly in a fixed position. The locking mechanism may include a locking member, and the locking member may be a unitary, one-piece structure. The locking member may be rotatably connected to a connector of the hinge assembly. The locking member may be connected to a locking structure that is movable between a locked position and an unlocked position. The locking member may be sized and configured to bias the locking structure into the locked position.
Adjustable Post Assembly
An extendable support system for supporting an object on a surface, the support system comprising a support structure comprising an inner post and an outer post arranged such that the relative longitudinal position of the inner post and the outer post effects a change in an overall length of the support structure to vary the height of the object above the surface; a guide assembly comprising one or more guides positioned between the inner post and the outer post, the guides being configured to maintain the lateral position of the inner post and the outer post with respect to one another while allowing longitudinal movement of the inner post and outer post with respect to one another along the length of the support structure.
INTERCHANGEABLE PLAY SYSTEM
An interchangeable play system for a body of water is provided. The system includes a first tabletop having a planar and circular shape with a top surface. The first tabletop includes first apertures disposed on the top surface of the tabletop that each receive a beverage container and a second centered aperture to receive an umbrella stem of an umbrella. The system includes a second tabletop having a planar and rectangular shape with a top surface. The second tabletop includes a pair of apertures disposed on the top surface of the tabletop that each receive a beverage container. The second tabletop includes a board game disposed between the pair of apertures disposed on the top surface of the tabletop. The bracket includes corresponding apertures having a spring-loaded peg that extends through one of the corresponding apertures to secure a telescoping length of the bracket.

MECHANICAL LOCKING SYSTEM FOR BUILDING PANELS
Panels are shown, which are provided with a mechanical locking system including a separate and flexible tongue allowing connection with a snap action. An outer edge part of the separate flexible tongue includes a guiding protrusion that facilitates easy disassembly of the panels and that is deformed during locking and/or unlocking.
SYSTEM FOR FIXING A FURNITURE LEG TO A FURNITURE AND METHOD FOR FIXING THE FURNITURE LEG TO THE FURNITURE
A system (3) for fixing a furniture leg to a furniture comprises a fixing element (4) and a retaining element (5). The retaining element (5) comprises a first and a second protrusion on one side. The fixing element (4) comprises a first side (S1), a second side (S2) adjoining the first side (S1), and a third side (S3) opposite to the first side (S1), a recess (6) being open towards the first side (S1) and a pretension face (7) starting from the second side (S2) and running along the third side (S3) and a stop face (8) adjoining the pretension face (7) and protruding from the third side (S3). The retaining element (5) and the fixing element (4) are configured such that the system (3) enables fixation without backlash of the furniture leg to the furniture in a state in which the first protrusion is in contact with the recess (6) and the second protrusion is in contact with the pretension face (7) without backlash.
Connection of a support to a molded plastic structure
A blow-molded plastic structure, such as a tabletop, may include an undercut. For example, the tabletop may include a frame receiving portion and a frame connecting structure with an undercut may be disposed in the frame receiving portion. A portion of the frame may contact or engage the frame connecting structure, such as the undercut, when the frame is connected to the tabletop. In an exemplary embodiment, a first side of the frame receiving portion may include a first frame connecting portion with an undercut and a second side of the frame receiving portion may include a second frame connecting portion with an undercut. The first frame connecting portion with an undercut may be disposed on an opposing surface from the second frame connecting portion with an undercut.
