Más concretamente, el objeto de la invención consiste en una mesa, del tipo que, esencialmente destinadas a la hostelería y restauración, están constituidas por un tablero sustentado por una columna central soportada por un pie en forma de cruz, la cual presenta la particularidad de incorporar medios que permiten el plegado o abatimiento del tablero así como una especial configuración del pie lo cual, juntamente con dicho abatimiento, permite el apilado o agrupamiento de varias mesas del mismo tipo ocupando un mínimo espacio.More specifically, the object of the invention it consists of a table, of the type that, essentially intended for hospitality and catering, are constituted by a board supported by a central column supported by a foot shaped cross, which presents the particularity of incorporating means that allow folding or folding the board as well as a special foot configuration which, together with said dejection, allows stacking or grouping of several tables of the same type occupying a minimum space.

Background of the invention

Como es sabido, la falta de espacio suele ser una problemática importante en todos los ámbitos. En el caso particular de la hostelería y restauración, dicho problema representa en muchas ocasiones no pocos quebraderos de cabeza para sus responsables, ya que, por ejemplo en las terrazas, el gran número de mesas y sillas que pueden llegar a tener, debe ser recogido y almacenado cada noche en poco espacio.As is known, the lack of space is usually An important issue in all areas. If particular of the hospitality and catering, said problem it represents in many occasions not few headaches for those responsible, since, for example on the terraces, the great number of tables and chairs they can have, must be collected and stored every night in little space.

Cabe mencionar, por otra parte, que mesas con mecanismos de tablero plegable o abatible, son ya conocidas en determinados tipos de muebles, no así en el tipo de mueble simple y ligero que aquí concierne, siendo en todo caso dichos mecanismos de compleja configuración y por tanto elevado coste de fabricación, lo cual repercute negativamente en el tipo de mueble del que aquí se trata.It should be mentioned, on the other hand, that tables with folding or folding board mechanisms, are already known in certain types of furniture, not so in the type of simple furniture and light that concerns here, being in any case such mechanisms of complex configuration and therefore high manufacturing cost, what which has a negative impact on the type of furniture here about.

Se hace por tanto necesaria la creación de una mesa que permite solventar, de forma práctica, económica y sencilla, la problemática planteada, siendo este el principal objetivo de la presente invención, sobre la cual, cabe señalar que, por parte del peticionario, se desconoce la existencia de ninguna otra mesa que presente unas características técnicas, estructurales y de configuración semejantes.It is therefore necessary to create a table that allows to solve, in a practical, economic and simple, the problem raised, this being the main purpose of the present invention, on which, it should be noted that, by the petitioner, the existence of any another table that presents technical, structural characteristics and similar configuration.

Explanation of the invention.

Así, la una mesa plegable apilable que la invención propone, constituye por sí misma una evidente novedad, ya que a tenor de su creación se consigue de forma taxativa una mesa dotada de un mecanismo de abatimiento o plegado del tablero sumamente sencillo, y por tanto que no la encarece, así como un diseño y configuración del pie que permite su apilamiento ajustando al mínimo el espacio que pueden llegar a ocupar una pluralidad de mesas de este tipo.Thus, the stackable folding table that the invention proposes, constitutes by itself an obvious novelty, since that according to its creation, a table is achieved in a taxative way equipped with a folding or folding mechanism of the board extremely simple, and therefore not expensive, as well as a foot design and configuration that allows stacking by adjusting to a minimum the space that can occupy a plurality of tables of this type.

Para ello, y de forma concreta, la mesa que se preconiza, que tal como se ha señalado comprende un tablero, que puede ser cuadrado o circular, dispuesto sobre una columna central que a su vez se apoya sobre un pie en cruz, incorpora, bajo dicho tablero y como punto de unión entre éste y la columna, un mecanismo constituido por un soporte lateralmente articulado en cuyo lado opuesto dispone de un pestillo que trabando una pestaña y fijado a un resorte, mantiene el tablero en su posición de uso, permitiendo el abatimiento del mismo, al ser liberado, hasta su posicionamiento totalmente vertical.To do this, and specifically, the table that advocates that, as indicated, it includes a board, which it can be square or circular, arranged on a central column which in turn leans on a cross foot, incorporates, under said board and as a point of union between it and the column, a mechanism constituted by a laterally articulated support on whose side opposite has a latch that locking a tab and fixed to a spring, keeps the board in its use position, allowing the dejection of the same, when released, until its positioning fully vertical

Paralelamente, en su base, la mesa dispone de un pie en cruz formado por sendas piezas que, provistas de elementos de encaje mutuo y de una estudiada configuración curvocóncava, permite apilar el pie de una mesa ajustadamente al de la contigua, haciendo que la agrupación de varias unidades se pueda realizar en el mínimo espacio.At the same time, at its base, the table has a foot in cross formed by two pieces that, provided with elements of mutual fit and a studied curved configuration, allows stacking the foot of a table tightly to that of the next one, making the grouping of several units can be done in The minimum space.

La nueva mesa plegable apilable representa, por consiguiente, una estructura innovadora de características estructurales y constitutivas desconocidas hasta ahora para tal fin, razones que unidas a su utilidad práctica, la dotan de fundamento suficiente para obtener el privilegio de exclusividad que se solicita.The new stackable folding table represents, by consequently, an innovative structure of features structural and constitutive unknown so far for that purpose, reasons that together with its practical utility, endow it with foundation enough to get the privilege of exclusivity that request.
