Portable and stackable umbrella stand and table and methods of use thereof
A portable and stackable combination umbrella stand and table system comprised of a stand housing interoperable with a first lid portion to cover an opening in an umbrella securing body and a second lid portion to serve as a table top. The stand housing may be configured to form a concave area for receiving sand or other ballast to securely anchor the system in an upright position. As the concave area of the stand housing is filled with sand or other ballast, the first lid portion may serve as a cap by covering the upper portion of the umbrella securing body and prevents the ingress of sand or other ballast material from entering the channel (through which the umbrella pole may thereby be more easily inserted). The first lid may be removed to receive an umbrella within the umbrella securing body, and the second lid portion, which may be configured to be installed with the stand so as to form a table surface, may thereby facilitate snacking once ballast has been received. The housing is shaped so as to facilitate stacking of multiple systems. A variety of other features may be provided, including hooks and other retaining and storage features formed within or attached to the system, as well as a carrying handle and latches to secure the table top lid, any or all of which are designed for both personal and commercial use.
Mobile DC powered entertainment center
A mobile entertainment center includes at least one TV monitor supported in a protective case on wheels. The case includes a removable cover that protectively conceals the TV monitor when not in use. When removed, the cover functions as a table or TV stand and includes removable or hinged legs. The TV monitor includes a non-reflective glass over the screen. The entertainment system is syncable with other portable electronic devices and includes speakers/sound bars. The entertainment center is DC powered and includes a voltage convertor. The mobile entertainment center further includes a charging station, flashlight, storage compartment, watertight casing, swipe screen technology, a control panel with access door, built in battery access, a rechargeable DC power source for each electronic device, a DC powered built-in gaming platform, and interactive karaoke technology.
Radiant furniture
Radiant furniture made of a concrete mix includes one or more heating elements or hot water supplied hydronic tubing that provide comfortable radiant heat. Tabletops can be heated to a temperature that is comfortable for people seated at the table. Benches and seats can be heated to provide comfortable heated seating. Combinations can also be used together, such as a heated tabletop with heated seats. A controller senses the temperature of the furniture and the ambient temperature, then applies power to one or more heating elements in the furniture according to programmed temperature thresholds to provide comfortable radiant heat from the furniture. The controller includes a calibration mode that allows calibrating the controller to a particular heated surface. The controller further comprises a knob that determines an operating mode for the controller and allows adjusting a temperature threshold for the heated surface up or down.
Adjustable Table for Use in Water
The present disclosure relates to an adjustable table including (i) a base, (ii) a first elongated rod coupled to the base, wherein the first elongated rod includes one or more first through holes, (iii) a second elongated rod configured to translate with respect to the first elongated rod, wherein the second elongated rod includes one or more second through holes, (iv) a table top coupled to the second elongated rod, and (v) a coupling mechanism configured to be positioned between one of the one or more first through holes and one of the one or more second through holes to thereby set a distance between the table top and the base.

Container with one or more tray retention portions and support stand
Containers with one or more tray retention portions and a support stand are described. For example, a container can include: a substantially hollow body including a plurality of body walls extending vertically from a bottom portion; an extension portion rotatably coupled to an outward-facing surface of a body wall among the plurality of body walls, the extension portion configured to rotate to an active position in which the extension portion extends outwardly from the body wall; and a support stand having a proximal end coupled to the outward-facing surface of the body wall and a distal end, the support stand configured to move between at least a stowed position in which the support stand is positioned against or proximate to the outward-facing surface of the body wall and a support position in which the support stand extends outwardly from the body wall.
Guard and cover for outdoor fire heating appliances
A convertible guard device for a fire heating appliance. The guard device having a plurality of panels and a base portion, wherein the panels may be configured to be arranged in a guard configuration and a tabletop configuration. The base portion may define a fire area and have an upper surface configured to receive the panels arranged in the guard configuration, and an inner surface having a ledge extending therefrom, the ledge configured to receive a perimeter edge of the panels when the panels are arranged in the tabletop configuration.
Extensible table with central leaf
A table with a central extension, includes a frame, two movable trays bearing on the frame and adapted to be brought close to one another to constitute a continuous surface on their own, or to be symmetrically brought away from each other, or independently of each other to enable the set-up of one or several so-called central extension(s) between the movable trays. The edges of the movable trays and of the extension(s) include at least one tab located on a first half of the edge and a groove located on a second half of the edge, the tab having a height increasing from its distal edge up to its central portion and decreasing from its central portion up to its proximal edge, and the depth of the groove being larger than the tab height, enabling an assembly by mortise-and-tenon joint even when the trays and/or the extension are deformed.
