The disadvantage, however, is that such serving trolleys can be completely dismantled for the purpose of space-saving consolidation. In the case of the μ tin serving trolley, however, it is particularly worth seeing that utensils that are used over and over again remain immediately at hand in this annex, that is, for practical reasons, they cannot be brought to another storage room. But this is not only the special problem with one: serving trolley, but also with trolleys that can be used in other areas.

The object of the invention is to design a folding table of the generic type in such a way that, in addition to the usual form of use as a table, utensils can also be stored as required in a compartment that is most favorable for the overall design.

This object is achieved according to the invention by that the Terti & alr & hnen the narrow walls a box and the table tops wholly or partially the side wall © des Box.

to articulate, brings the advantageous possibility of pivoting the support brackets into a collapsed position that is hardly visible when the support legs are dimensioned accordingly, in order to achieve the space-saving collapsed position. In the other extreme position of the support bracket, there is stable support for the folded table tops. The shell shape of the individual tabletops leads to a high inherent stability of the same. With regard to the manufacturing material, plastic can be used. An extremely thin wall of material can be achieved. The box frame can also be made of plastic. Side edges molded onto it also provide a high level of internal stability. This is further increased by the frame structure designed and assigned according to the invention, which is advantageously shaped to be handled at the same time. The fact that the support brackets are anseljarxiiert iri vertical tubes, which sit on the box frame, a large load-bearing capacity of the furniture can be realized. Despite such a high load-bearing capacity, the crash bar is given the necessary safety thanks to the special definition of the extreme positions. The appropriately provided basters prevent the 109845 / QIQS
