DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

The First Embodiment

[0024] Referring to FIG. 1, FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, the table comprises a table top 1 and table legs 2; the table legs 2 are foldable and connected to the bottom of the table top 1. The table top 1 comprises a top plate 11 and a bottom plate 12 being stackable together. The bottom plate 12 is disposed with concaves 12.1. The edge of the bottom surface of the top plate 1 is disposed with a metal frame 13. The bottom plate 12 is supported on the metal frame 13. The metal frame 13 is detachably locked to the bottom plate 12. A screw 14 passes through the metal frame 13 to lock to the bottom plate 12 from end up.

[0025] The edge of the top plate 11 is disposed with a top plate side 112 of downwardly extending. The bottom portion of the top plate side 12 bends towards the metal frame 13. The edge of the bottom plate 12 is disposed with a bottom plate side 122 of downwardly extending. The bottom portion of the bottom plate side 122 bends towards the metal plate 13. The top plate side 112 and the bottom plate side 122 are contacted together. The metal frame 13 is disposed with a protruding portion, which, in this embodiment is a crimping 132 bending upwardly from the bottom portion of the side faced to the top plate side 112. The crimping 132 covers the bottom portion of the top plate side 112 and the bottom plate side 122.

[0026] The bottom portion of the top plate side and the bottom plate side bend towards the metal frame so as to make space for the crimping and keep the crimping and the external edge of the crimping vertically aligned, making the side surface be a plane and the table top attractive.

The Second Embodiment

[0027] Referring to FIG. 4, the second embodiment differs from the first embodiment in that: the edge of the bottom plate 12 does not have a bottom plate side, the crimping 132 only coves the top plate side 112; the bottom portion of the bottom plate 12 extends down with a fixing portion 124, which is disposed at the side of the metal frame 13 opposite to the top plate side 112; a screw 15 laterally passes through the fixing portion 124 to lock to the metal frame 13.

The Third Embodiment

[0028] Referring to FIG. 5, FIG. 6 and FIG. 7, the table of this embodiment is a square table comprising a table top 1 and table legs 2. The table legs 2 are foldable and connected to the bottom portion of the table top 1. The table top 1 comprises a top plate 11 and a bottom plate 12 being stackable together. The bottom plate is disposed with concaves 12.1; the edge of the bottom surface of the table top 1 is disposed with a metal frame 13, which supports on the bottom plate 12. The metal frame 13 is locked to the bottom plate 12; a screw 14 (not figured out) passes through the metal frame 13 to lock to the bottom plate 12 from end up.
