Disclosed are supporting assemblies and foldable structures having supporting assemblies. A supporting assembly includes a locking mechanism that is easy to operate. The locking mechanism is configured to lock the supporting assembly in an unfold state to prevent inadvertent folding of the supporting assembly. It can be unlocked easily when folding the supporting assembly is desired. Additionally or optionally, the supporting assembly includes a protecting component configured to enhance safety during the operation of the locking mechanism.

A folding table stand includes a crossbeam and at least two table legs. Each table leg of the at least two table legs has a folded state and an in-use state for supporting the crossbeam. The each table leg is rotatable relative to the crossbeam so that the each table leg can switch between the in-use state and the folded state. The lower end of the each table leg is connected to a foot for being supported by the ground. The crossbeam is provided with a first accommodating slot. The foot closest to the crossbeam is at least partially accommodated in the first accommodating slot when the at least two table legs are both in a folded state.

A foldable table that provides a stable operational position in which the table legs may extend beyond the footprint of the table, and a folded, storage position in which the table legs may be tucked within the footprint of the table. An aspect provides table legs that may slide and pivot within sockets of a table top, to enable the legs to lock into the extended position and to also pivot flat against a horizontal undersurface of the table top.

A table may be sized and configured to nest with another table to reduce a height of a plurality of stacked tables in a nested configuration. The table may include a nesting portion formed in an upper surface and sidewall of the table top. The table may also include a frame with one or more engaging portions sized and configured to be disposed in the nesting portion of an adjacent table when the tables are nested together. In addition, the table top may include a compression edge sized and configured to be disposed in a nesting portion of an adjacent table when the tables are nested together. The compression edge and engaging portions may be sized and configured to be simultaneously disposed in the nesting portion of the adjacent table when the table is nested with the adjacent table.

A foldable table includes a first tabletop panel, a second tabletop panel, and a reinforcing frame which includes first through fourth reinforcing members mounted along longitudinal sides of the first and second tabletop panels respectively, a first transverse member transversely extended between outer end portions of the first and second reinforcing members at the first tabletop panel, and a second transverse member transversely extended between outer end portions of the third and fourth reinforcing members at the second tabletop panel. Two ends of the first transverse member are affixed to the first and second reinforcing members in a non-rotatably movable manner. Two ends of the second transverse member are affixed to the third and fourth reinforcing members in a non-rotatably movable manner. Therefore, the first and second transverse members enhance the rigidity of the reinforcement frame to support two transverse sides of the first and second tabletop panels respectively.

A foldable table or bench has first and second support surface halves. A furniture leg is mounted to each half and collapses independently of the other and is movable between an extended position and a stowed position. First and second hinge assemblies each include two hinge members mounted to the support surface halves and pivotally connected to one another by hinge pins. A center rod is connected to the first and the second hinge assemblies and extends across the width of the table top halves substantially parallel to the first and second hinge pins.

A furniture assembly is provided that allows to independently adjust height of furniture legs and thus adjust the angle at which the user-interfacing surface of the furniture, such as seat or tabletop, are positioned. This feature allows to set up the furniture for office-type use even in the outdoors and to compensate for sloped or otherwise uneven terrain. The furniture assembly can take form a chair, a sofa, or a table, with all of these furniture items being easily and conveniently foldable and unfoldable to allow for easy transport. Multiple safety features promote the furniture in staying in folded or unfolded configuration, as desired by the user, and prevent accidental change of configuration.

A table with an articulable leg system may include a table top, a set of legs configured to support the table top relative to a ground structure, and a leg retention mechanism configured to couple a leg of the set of legs to the table top, the leg retention mechanism operable in an unsecured configuration in which the leg is movable, relative to the table top, about at least two angular degrees of freedom and a secured configuration in which the leg is fixed relative to the table top. The leg may include a ball portion and a strut portion, and the leg retention mechanism may be configured to receive the ball portion therein.

A folding table includes: a table top, a plurality of table legs hinged to the table top, a plurality of folding stools detachably fixed to the bottom of the table top, and folding support bars disposed between the table top and the table legs. The folding support bars include first support bars pivotally connected to the table legs and second support bars pivotally connected to the table top; the first support bars are hinged to the second support bars; a clamping part is disposed between each first support bar and each second support bar to position the first support bar and the second support bar when the folding table is in an unfolding state.
