- the upright elements are provided towards the end or ends of the first elongate element, ideally at the end or ends of the first elongate element.
- the upright elements may be tubular, for instance circular cross section.
- the first elongate element may be tubular, for instance of square or rectilinear cross section.
- the first elongate element may be of variable length.
- the one or more further elongate elements may be linear.
- one or more of the further elongate elements may be provided with a portion which is substantially parallel to the first element portion of the first elongate element in the second state and / or a second element portion which is substantially parallel to the second element portion of the first elongate element in the first state.
- the support system includes at least two further elongate elements.
- one or more of the further elongate elements is provided on one side of the first elongate element and one or more of the second further elongate element is provided on the other side of the first elongate element.
- Two or more pairs of further elongate elements may be provided, one of the pair being provided on one side of the first elongate element, the other being provided on the other side of the first elongate element.
- the further elongate elements may be of equivalent configuration to one another.
- the further elongate elements may be mirror images of one another.
- the further elongate elements may be different from one another.
- One or more of the further elongate elements is preferably provided with an upright element.
- the upright element is provided towards the end of the further elongate element away from the mounting in the first state, ideally at the end of the further elongate element.
- the upright element may be tubular, for instance of circular cross section.
- One or more of the further elongate elements may be tubular, for instance of square or rectilinear cross section. Preferably a substantially horizontal upper surface for the one or more further elongate elements is provided in the first state.
- the first element portion of the one or more further elongate elements are of equivalent lengths to one another, and ideally of equivalent shape.
- the first element portion of the one or more further elongate elements may be of a different length to one another.
- the length of the first element portion may be adjustable.

- the second element portions of the one or more further elongate elements may be of a different length to one another.
- the length of the second element portions may be adjustable.
- the length of the first elongate element may be adjustable.
- a minimum angle of between 90 and 160 ° is provided between the first element portion and second element portions of one or more of the further elongate elements.
- the angle defined may more preferably be between 100 and 150° and still more preferably be between 120 and 140°.
- the angle is measured in the plane of pivotal mounting and / or a plane parallel to the work surface being supported.
- angles defined between the first element portion and the second element portion of the further elongate elements may be the same or different between different further elongate elements.
- the mounting is provided by a bracket.
- the bracket may be of U-shaped cross section.
- the mounting may be provided by a first component, preferably planar, a second component preferably planar and ideally parallel to the first component, and a third component, preferably planar, preferably linking the first and second components and ideally perpendicular to the first and second components.
- the surface of the first component of the mounting opposing the second component of the mounting may be planar and / or the surface of the second component opposing the first component may be planar.
- both opposing surfaces are planar and / or parallel to one another.
- the separation of the first and second components is greater than the profile of the second element portion presented to it.
- the difference is air clearance tolerance, for instance less than 1mm.
- the second element portion is received between the first and second components of the mounting in the first state.
- the second element portion is not between the first and second components of the mounting in the second state.
- the received and removed references may refer to an intermediate portion of the second element portion, between the pivotal mounting and end of the second element portion, for instance the mid 20% of the second element portion.
- the pivotal mounting is provided by a pin.
- the pivotal mounting passes through the mounting and further elongate element.
- the pivotal mounting for the further elongate element may be provided at the junction between the first element portion and second element portion.
- a separate mounting may be provided for each further elongate element.
- the mounting for one or more elongate elements may be attached to the mounting for one or more other further elongate elements, for instance the further elongate element on the other side of the first elongate element. Attachments may be provided by means of an element linking the first and second mountings under the first elongate element. A sliding engagement between the pair of mountings and first elongate element may be provided.
- the position of the mounting or mountings on the first elongate element may be variable. It is particularly preferred that the mounting can be slid along the first elongate element.
- the mounting may be positioned on the first elongate element by means of a releaseable fastener, such as a bolt.
- the second element portion may be retained within the mounting in the first state by means of a releaseable fastener, such as a bolt.
- the releaseable fastener may engage one or more second element portions, preferably a pair of second element portions on opposing sides of the first elongate element.
- an item of furniture comprising a furniture support system provided according to the first aspect of the invention and one or more work surfaces.
- one or more of the work surfaces is a table surface.
- the work surfaces are releasably fastened to the furniture support system.
- the one or more work surfaces are reversible.
- the lower surface of the work surface engages with the upper surface of the first elongate element and / or further elongate element or elements.
- a non-slip material may be provided between the work surface and the first elongate element / further elongate elements.
- the invention provides a new manner for achieving a work surface support system.
- the support system consists of an upright 2 provided at each end of an elongate element 4.
- the uprights are of tubular form.
- a further upright 6 is provided at each end of the pivotally mounted elements 8. Again, the upright 6 is of tubular form.
- the elements 8 include a first elongate portion 10 which links the uprights 6 to a pivot location 12 and a second elongate portion 14 extending from the pivot location 12 to the end 16 of the elongate element 8 which is distal to the uprights 6.
- the whole of the element 14 is received within pivotal brackets 18 on each side of the elongate element 4, as described in more detail below.
- the support system provides good support for the work surface 20 by contact between the lower surface 22 of the work surface 20 and the upper surface of the elongate elements 4 and 8.
- the work surface 20 is readily de-mountable and the support system can be folded to a storage state, second state, as illustrated in Figure 2.
- releaseable fastenings attaching the elements 14 to the bracket 18 and / or element 4 are released.
- the net result is a support frame which assumes a low profile and volume in its storage state, but which provides effective support in its support state. Additionally this is achieved using pivoting locations which are hidden from the user and whilst employing a single leg at each of the more visible locations to the user.
- the pivotal bracket 18 is formed of a U-shaped cross section with planar and parallel upper and lower parts 30, 32 and perpendicular joining part 34.
- the element 14 of elongate element 8 is configured to be a very snug fit within the U-shaped channel, as illustrated by the dotted profile 36 in Figure 3a.
- a releaseable fastening such as a bolt is passed through the element 14 and engages aperture 38 in the bracket 18 and / or a location in the elongate element 4.
- a common bolt or other releaseable fastening system could be used to fix both of two opposing elements 14 on the different elongate elements 8.
- the pivotal mounting for the elongate element 8 on the bracket is provided by apertures 40 in the upper surface 30 and lower surface 32 of the bracket. These apertures cooperate with a pin or other suitable pivot which passes through and engages with the element 8.
- bracket configurations are possible.
- Apertures 40 define the hinges in the same way as described above, and aperture 38 provides a location to receive the fastener or the elongate element 8 and / or to fix the position of the pair of brackets 50 on the elongate element 4.
- elongate element 8 can be provided by varying the length of element 10 (10a is longer than 10b, for instance) and / or by varying the angle ⁇ separating the element 10 from element 14 of elongate element 8.
- an angle ⁇ of 120° may apply to elongate element 8b whereas an angle ⁇ of approximately 150 ° applies to elongate element 8c.
- the brackets may provide hinge locations 12, as described above, together with locations 60 which receive the releaseable fasteners for fastening the elongate elements 8 to the brackets 18.
- This embodiment of the invention also illustrates that the elongate element 4 need not be provided with uprights itself, all of the uprights potentially being provided on pivotally mounted elongate elements 8.
- the position of the pairs of brackets 18 on the elongate element 4 can potentially be varied by sliding the bracket assembly along the length of elongate element 4.
- moving the pair of arms 8a and 8d towards the left hand side of Figure 5 would enable significantly longer work surface 20 to be supported.
- the furniture system and support system described above provides a very versatile and very easily stored / transported system. Additionally, the system provides for the use of reversible work surfaces.
