  The universal stand 1 includes a pair of left and right support legs 2 and a top plate 3 supported by the support legs 2.

  The support leg 2 includes a pair of front and rear front legs 21 and a rear leg 22 that are erected on the left and right sides at a predetermined interval.

  The front leg 21 is erected in a state where the upper end is slightly inclined with respect to the lower end, and the upper ends of the front leg 21 and the rear leg 22 are connected to each other by the upper connecting member 23, The lower ends of the front leg 21 and the rear leg 22 are connected by a lower connecting member 25.

  Specifically, the front leg 21 has an upper end rear surface connected to the front end of the upper connecting member 23, and a lower end outer surface connected to the front end inner surface of the lower connecting member 25. In addition, the rear leg 22 has an inner surface at the upper end connected to the rear outer surface of the upper connecting member 23, and a lower end connected to the upper surface of the rear end of the lower connecting member 25.

  Thus, by connecting the front leg 21 and the rear leg 22 with the upper and lower connecting members 23, 25, the left and right support legs 2 are substantially trapezoidal when viewed from the side.

  Further, the front and rear lower portions of the left and right support legs 2 are connected by a front connecting member 26 and a rear connecting member 27. Specifically, the front connecting member 26 is a round bar, and both ends thereof are connected to the inner surfaces of the lower ends of the left and right front legs 21. On the other hand, the rear connecting member 27 is an elongated body having a rectangular cross section and is connected to the inner surface of the rear end portion of the lower connecting member 25.

  The front legs 21, the rear legs 22, the upper and lower connecting members 23 and 25, and the front and rear connecting members 26 and 27 are connected and fixed as described above using, for example, screws or bolts.

  And the support means 4 is provided in the support leg 2 comprised in this way. The support means 4 is for supporting the top plate 3 on the support leg 2, and includes a front support portion 41 provided on the front leg 21 and a rear support portion 42 provided on the rear leg 22.

  The front support portion 41 is constituted by a groove portion formed on the inner surface of the front leg 21 so that the top plate 3 can be inserted, and the front support portion 41 is formed in a plurality of stages (three steps in this example) vertically. Yes.

  The rear support portion 42 includes two upper and lower protruding portions 42 a that protrude inward from a middle portion of the inner surface of the rear leg 22. These protrusions 42a are formed in a cylindrical shape having a predetermined length. By inserting the top plate 3 inserted into the front support portion 41 in the middle stage between the protrusions 42a, the rear side of the top plate 3 is placed. I try to support it. Further, the lower projecting portion 42a and the end portions of the rear connecting member 27 can be inserted so as to support the rear side of the top plate 3 inserted into the lower front support portion 41. Further, the upper projecting portion 42a and the rear end portion of the upper connecting member 23 can be inserted so as to support the rear side of the top plate 3 inserted into the upper front support portion 41.

  That is, in addition to the upper and lower protrusions 42a, both end portions of the rear connecting member 27 and the rear end portion of the upper connecting member 23 also serve as the rear support portion 42.

  Thus, the top plate 3 is inserted between each of the front support portions 41 including the groove portions described above and the protrusion portions 42a and the like so that the front portion is vertically sandwiched by the groove portions and the rear portion protrudes. It is supported by the support leg 2 in such a manner that the upper and lower parts are sandwiched between the portions 42 and the like, and is thereby stably placed on the left and right support legs 2 in a substantially horizontal state. And by changing the up-and-down position inserted in the front support part 41, in this example, the height of the top plate 3 can be adjusted by three steps up and down.

  In addition, cylindrical stoppers 31 protrude laterally at the front portions of the left and right sides of the top plate 3, and the top plate 3 is attached to the front support portion 41 and the rear support portion 42 of the support leg 2 as described above. When the stopper 31 is in contact with the front surface of the front leg 21 when inserted, the top plate 3 is prevented from moving in the depth direction, and the top plate 3 is stably placed on the support leg 2. .

  Further, the top plate 3 is composed of a heat-resistant member, for example, a heat-resistant tile, so that the upper surface 3a formed so as to be lowered by one step with respect to the peripheral edge is used as a dining table for pets such as dogs and cats. Yes. In this way, by configuring the top surface 3a of the top plate 3 with a heat-resistant tile or the like, it is possible to prevent the warp of the top plate 3 even with a hot meal or the like and maintain a certain durability. Further, by forming the upper surface 3a one step lower than the peripheral edge, it is possible to prevent the tableware A (see FIG. 1) placed on the upper surface 3a from slipping and dropping to the side.

  A slip stopper 5 is provided at an appropriate position on the bottom surface of the lower connecting member 25 so that it can be placed on the floor surface in a stable state.

  By configuring the universal table 1 in this way, the universal table 1 can be used as a dining table for pets. In this case, the height of the top plate 3 can be adjusted easily and quickly by inserting / removing (attaching / detaching) the top plate 3 to / from appropriate positions of the front support portion 41 and the rear support portion 42 provided above and below. it can.

  That is, by adjusting the height of the top 3 according to the size of the pet, the tableware A can be placed at a position where the pet can easily eat. Moreover, in the case of a pet that requires care, the height of the top 3 can be adjusted so that the tableware A can be placed at a position where the pet can easily eat.
