Description

  The present invention relates to a folding table in which a leg attached to a top plate can be folded.

  The folding table can be folded and put away when not in use, and the storage space can be reduced. Therefore, the folding table can be used efficiently even in a small living space, and has been widely used.

On the other hand, when a table is used, the upper surface of the top plate is easier to use if it is as wide as possible. However, if the table is to be cleared, a large top plate takes up space, which is not preferable. In order to cope with such a problem, for example, in Patent Literature 1, an adjusting plate and a leg plate flexibly connected to the adjusting plate are provided in a storage portion provided on a table plate attached to a storage furniture body so as to be able to be drawn out and used. It is described that the adjusting plate and the leg plate are sometimes pulled out of the storage portion so that the adjusting plate can be used as a top plate.

  However, in the conventional folding table, if the top surface space of the top plate is large, the space for storing the space becomes large, and the portable table becomes inconvenient to carry. Moreover, in the above-mentioned prior art, in the prior art, since it is attached to storage furniture, there is no convenience like a folding table, and further, it is inevitable that a step is generated between the table plate and the adjustment plate, Not easy to use. Although it is conceivable to prevent such a level difference from occurring, a complicated mechanism is required, which causes an increase in cost and may make setting during use difficult.

  Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a folding table that can be easily handled similarly to a conventional folding table and can also increase the space on the top plate.

  The folding table according to the present invention is a folding table including a first top plate and a foldable first leg attached to the first top plate, and is provided on a bottom surface of the first top plate. A storage portion and a small table stored in the storage portion are provided.

  Another folding table according to the present invention is a folding table including a first top plate and a foldable first leg attached to the first top plate, wherein a bottom surface of the first top plate is provided. And a pair of rails mounted substantially in parallel to each other, and a small table into which the second top plate is inserted and stored.

  Further, in the above folding table, the small table includes a second top plate and a foldable second leg attached to the second top plate. Further, the small table is the same height as the folding table.

  Still another folding table according to the present invention is a folding table including a first top plate and a foldable first leg attached to the first top plate. A pair of rails that are attached substantially parallel to the bottom surface and at least a portion where the first leg is disposed when the first leg is folded are cut out, and the second top plate is inserted into the rail. And a small table provided with a stopper provided on the bottom surface of the second top plate and engageable with the first leg in a folded state.

  Since the present invention has the above-described configuration, the small table to be stored on the bottom surface of the first top plate is provided, so even if the top surface space of the top plate of the folding table itself is reduced, as required. If the small table is taken out and placed adjacent to the folding table, the space on the top plate can be increased. And since a small table is stored in the bottom surface of the 1st top board of a folding table, a small table does not interfere when it is not in use. Also, when storing the folding table, the small table can be put away together with the folding table, and the same storage space as in the related art is sufficient. Furthermore, since only the small table can be taken out and used alone, either the folding table, the small table, or both can be appropriately selected depending on the application, and the convenience is improved. Furthermore, if the small table is made lighter than the folding table, the operation can be performed more easily when only the small table is taken out than when the folding table is taken out, which further enhances the convenience.

  In addition, if a pair of rails is provided on the bottom surface of the first top plate of the folding table and the second table top of the small table is inserted into the rails to store the small table, storage and removal of the small table can be easily performed. Will be able to do it.

  Further, by providing the small table with the second top plate and the foldable second leg attached to the second top plate, the small table can also be folded when storing the folding table. And can be stored in the same manner as a conventional folding table. In addition, if the height of the small table is the same as the height of the folding table, there is no step between both top plates when they are arranged adjacent to each other.

  In addition, a pair of rails is provided on the bottom surface of the first top plate of the folding table, and at least a portion where the first leg is arranged when the first leg is folded is cut out on the rail, and the second table of the small table is cut out. By making the stopper provided on the bottom surface of the top plate and the folded first leg body engageable, it is possible to prevent the small table from coming off the rail body when the folding table is stored.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail. The embodiment described below is a preferred specific example for carrying out the present invention, and thus various technical limitations are made. However, the present invention is intended to limit the present invention particularly in the following description. It is not limited to these forms unless otherwise specified.

  FIG. 1 shows a front view (FIG. 1A) and a bottom view (FIG. 1B) of an embodiment according to the present invention. 2 shows a front view (FIG. 2 (a)) and a bottom view (FIG. 2 (b)) in a state where the small table is removed, and FIG. 3 shows a front view of the small table (FIG. a)) and a bottom view (FIG. 3B).

  The folding table 1 has four legs 3 attached to four corners on the bottom surface of a rectangular top plate 2 by folding metal fittings 4 so as to be foldable inward. A pair of rail bodies 5 having an L-shaped cross section are fixed to the bottom surface of the top plate 2. The rail body 5 is provided so as to be substantially parallel to two parallel sides of the top plate 2, and the interval is set so as to be substantially equal to the width of the top plate 11 of the small table 10. I have. Further, the gap between the rail body 5 and the top plate 2 is preferably set to be approximately the same as or slightly larger than the thickness of the top plate 11 of the small table 10.

  The small table 10 is provided with four legs 12 at four corners on the bottom surface of a rectangular top plate 11 so as to be able to be folded inward by folding metal fittings 13. The stopper 14 is fixed to the bottom surface of the top plate 11 so as to be substantially parallel to two parallel sides of the top plate 11. The stopper 14 has an elongated trapezoidal shape when viewed from the bottom, and has a shape that is long inside and short outside.

  The small table 10 is stored by inserting a top plate 11 between the rail bodies 5 from a direction orthogonal to the paper surface of FIG. 1 in a folded state. The length of the small table 10 in the insertion direction is set to be the same as the length of the folding table 1. In addition, since the folding table 1 and the small table 10 are designed so that the height up to the upper surface of the top plate is the same in use, if the small table 10 is arranged adjacent to the folding table 1, Can be used with a wide top plate. The thickness of the top plate and the length of the legs may be different between the two, and it is only necessary that the top plate is designed to have the same height to the upper surface.

  As shown in FIG. 2B, the rail body 5 has a cut-out portion (a portion shown by a dotted line) where the leg body 3 is arranged in an inwardly folded state, and as a result, three portions 5a are formed. , 5b and 5c. Therefore, when the leg 3 is folded, the leg 3 fits between 5a and 5b, and projects inside the rail 5. Similarly, the leg 3 is fitted between 5b and 5c and protrudes inside the rail 5. When the small table 10 is set so that the stopper 14 fixed to the top plate 11 is arranged to face the portion 5b of the rail body and the leg 3 is folded, The small table 10 is prevented from falling off the rail body 5 by the stopper 14 being clamped. At this time, since the oblique sides of the stoppers 14 are arranged along the side surfaces of the folded legs 3, the stoppers 14 are held in a stable state without rattling between the legs 3. Therefore, when the folding table 1 is stored, the small table 10 can be transported together with the top plate 2 even if it is transported in the vertical direction as in the related art.

  FIG. 4 is an enlarged side view (FIG. 4A) of a mounting portion of the folding metal fitting 4 and a cross-sectional view taken along line AA. The folding metal fittings 4 include a fixing metal fitting 40 fixed to the top plate 2 by screws 43, a connecting metal fitting 41 fixed to the concave portion 30 formed inside the leg 3 by screws 43, and a connecting fitting 41 to the fixing metal fitting 40. Is rotatably mounted. Since the connecting fitting 41 is fixed to the recess 30, the connecting fitting 41 is hidden from the outside when the leg 3 is erected, and the appearance is improved. The folding fitting 13 also has the same configuration as the folding fitting 4.

  In the embodiment described above, the small table has the same configuration as the folding table, but may have a different shape. For example, the shape of the top plate may be an elliptical shape. Further, the thickness of the top plate of the small table may be different from the thickness of the folding table. The storage section may have a structure other than the rail body in accordance with such a difference in shape. For example, a hook-shaped engaging portion may be provided on the bottom surface of the folding table, and the concave portion of the small table may be hooked on the engaging portion.

It is a front view and a bottom view showing an embodiment concerning the present invention. It is the front view and bottom view in the state where the small table of the embodiment concerning the present invention was removed. It is a front view and a bottom view of a small table of an embodiment concerning the present invention. It is an enlarged view of the attachment part of a folding metal fitting.
