Each member of the mechanism 5 swings around the pin that pivots each member, and as a result, each supporting leg 4 also swings around the pin 17.

Then, as shown in FIG.
If they are in a vertical folding position with their lower surfaces facing inward and parallel to each other at a close distance, the rotary table 8 provided on one of the dividing plates 2 will be in a vertical position, and the supporting legs 4 will also be parallel to the dividing plate 2. When the folding position is reached, and then the 20th claw body 36 is operated to engage the engaging claw 35 with the engaging pin 37, the dividing plate 2 and the supporting leg 4 are locked in the folding position.

In this way, the table 1 is folded into an extremely compact position as shown in FIG. It can also be stored.

As described in detail above, the present invention allows the rotation table 8 to rotate by rolling the roller 56 fixed to the drive shaft 53 of the motor 55 relatively to the ring-shaped rail 48 on the outer periphery of the rotation table 8. 8 is rotationally driven, the weight of the rotating table 8 does not act on the drive shaft 53 of the motor 55, and the rotational power is decelerated when being transmitted from the rollers 56 to the rails 48. A device with a small driving force can be used, and there is no need to provide a speed reducer.

In addition, since the outer circumferential side of the rotary table 8 whose center portion is supported by a bearing body is supported by a plurality of casters 50 that are approximately equally distributed in the circumferential direction and roll on the dividing plate 2, the rotary table 8 can be It can be rotated smoothly and well.

Furthermore, since the rotary table 8 is provided on one of the divided plates 2, when the table 1 is in the folded position, the rotary table 8 and the divided plate 2 equipped with it are in a substantially vertical posture, so it is easy to remove the rotary table 8. The table 1 can be folded into a compact position without removing it.

In addition, since the dividing plate 2 with the rotary table 8 is equipped with the motor 55 with the roller 56, the rail 48 and the roller 56 and the motor 55 can be moved easily when the table 1 is in either the use position or the folded position. The positional relationship remains unchanged,
Therefore, when changing the position of the table 1, the rails 48, rollers 56, etc. do not pose a problem.
