Collapsible Platform Assembly
A collapsible platform assembly includes an upper platform having a perimeter wall, a top surface, and a plurality of pivoting support legs, and a lower platform having a perimeter wall, a top surface, and a plurality of pivoting support legs. A connector assembly connects the lower platform to the upper platform. The connector assembly is configured to provide adjustability of the collapsible platform assembly between a deployed configuration with the upper and lower platforms separated and a collapsed configuration with the top surface of the lower platform nesting within the perimeter wall of the upper platform. When deployed, the collapsible platform assembly provides two elevated platforms that can support a user to reach high areas. When collapsed, the platform assembly reduces in size with the lower platform nesting within the upper platform for compact storage and easy transport.
Foldable supporting frame having independently rotatable legs
A foldable supporting frame includes an upper frame and a plurality of legs disposed below the upper frame when unfolded to support the upper frame. The upper frame includes a plurality of bars, with adjacent bars in the plurality of bars coupled to each other or integrally formed with each other at their adjacent end portions. Each of the plurality of legs is coupled with a corresponding bar in the plurality of bars and independently rotatable about an axis defined by the corresponding bar. When folded, the plurality of legs is disposed in an interior defined by the upper frame.
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.
PORTABLE AND FOLDABLE WORKSTATION APPARATUS
A portable workstation apparatus includes: a pair of collapsible legs; and a work portion that is attached in a removable manner to the pair of collapsible lags via a pair of brackets. Each leg of the pair of collapsible legs includes: a frame; an extension connected to a first end of the frame; a lower post housed within a sleeve; an upper post; a hinge connecting the lower post and the upper post; a first brace connecting the extension to the sleeve; and a plurality of holes on an exterior face of the lower post or the upper post. Each leg is configured to collapse by folding the upper post towards the lower post via the hinge and rotating the extension toward the lower post.
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.
Spring table
A folding portable table having a planar table top with a first half and a hingedly connected second half. A hinge fixedly connected to each table top half along adjoining side portions to allow the planar table top to fold along the hinge. A leg assembly bracket fixedly carried on a bottom surface of each table top half, each leg assembly bracket defining a first concave notch and a second concave notch, each concave notch configured to engage with and positionally maintain a leg assembly. Two leg assemblies for releasable engagement with the leg assembly brackets to support the folding portable table above a supporting surface and for storage adjacent a bottom surface of each table top half when folded.
AUTOMATIC LOCKING MECHANISM AND WORKTABLE
A locking mechanism that is configured to automatically secure a first object to a second object when the objects are adjacent one another is disclosed. The locking mechanism selectively releases the objects from one another in response to the movement of a third object. The locking mechanism includes a latch having a base, a pivoting portion attached to the base, with the pivoting portion configured to pivotally secure the latch to the first object about an axis (A). The latch also includes a securing portion attached to the base. A receiving surface is configured to contact the second object as it comes into proximity with the first object and pivot the latch about the axis (A) in a first direction. The securing portion also includes a hook configured to automatically secure the second object to the first object when said objects are adjacent to one another.
Folding table
A table has a bottom plate having a bottom plate channel and an outer wall. A bottom plate lip is perpendicular to the outer wall. A top plate has a top plate lip overlying and parallel to the bottom plate lip. A lower end of a frame is in the bottom plate channel and an upper end of the frame is in contact with the top plate. An edge piece clamps the top plate lip and the bottom plate lip together. The edge piece extends entirely around a perimeter of the top plate.
Cantilever table for mounting to vehicle cargo area
A cantilever table is configured to attach to a vehicle cargo area. The cantilever table includes a first portion slidably engaged with a second portion in a manner that allows the first portion to be stored beneath the second portion when the table is not in use. The first portion includes a handle at the proximal end, a hook fastener configured to engage a closure latch in the vehicle cargo area, a first adjustable support configured to extend vertically downward from the lower surface, and a second adjustable support comprising a pair of independently adjustable supports configured to extend downwardly at an angle toward a bumper in the vehicle cargo area. Generally, cantilever tables provide a compact storage configuration for transportation in a vehicle. Inventive tables can be easily assembled and supported solely from the vehicle during use.
Frame for a table
A frame for sit-stand-tables comprising a longitudinal member (3), two height-adjustable legs (6, 7) with at least two telescopic profiles, namely an outer and an inner profile, and with a driving mechanism, driven by a motor unit (39), comprising an electric motor (46) and a gear. According to the invention the motor unit (39) is arranged in the longitudinal member (3) and connected to the driving mechanism in the height-adjustable legs (6, 7). Thus, a frame with a simplified construction is achieved. The construction of the legs (6, 7) can be simplified and at the same time the dimensions can be reduced, as it is not necessary to take the building-in of a motor into the legs into consideration. As both legs (6, 7) are driven by a joint motor unit (39), the electric control can also be simplified as it will not have to drive the two legs synchronously.
