Definitions

  • the present invention refers to a portable carriage-table set. More specifically, it refers to a foldable device able to be transformed both in a transport carriage and in a table, particularly in a beach table.
  • AR 36200 A1 discloses a beach carriage-table provided with two wheels, able to adopt three positions by means of a dented hinges system which allows movement of two pairs of parallel supporting arms. When folded, said beach carriage-table size is reduced so it can be stored.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 6,152,462 discloses a convertible hand-held carriage for equipment transport purposes.
  • This carriage comprises three independent pivoting articulated elements. These articulated elements allow such carriage to adopt five different configurations: a folded configuration, a loading configuration, a hand-held configuration, a sloped table configuration and a standing-table one.
  • the inventive portable carriage-table set substantially reduces joints exhibited by the previous art, the present carriage-table being more simple when adopting the folded, transport carriage or support for transport carriage, or table configuration, there existing less risks of joints breakage and/or jamming, and further, its cost is lower as it has less pieces. Also, and due to the novel combination of used elements, it may transport and hold large volume objects.
  • a portable carriage-table set comprising:
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the portable carriage-table set of the invention.
  • FIG. 2 depicts the portable carriage-table set of the invention in folded configuration.
  • FIG. 3 depicts the portable carriage-table set of the invention in transport carriage or transport carriage support configuration.
  • FIG. 4 depicts the portable carriage-table set of the invention in table configuration.
  • FIG. 1 illustrates a portable carriage-table set 1 comprising a table 2 which has an upper surface, a lower surface and a perimetric edge thereinbetween, a front portion and a rear portion, a stop 3 attached to said lower surface in the vicinity of the front portion of said table, and at least one hinge 4 attached to said lower surface in the vicinity of the rear portion of said table 2 , said set 1 being able to adopt a folded configuration, a transport carriage configuration or a transport carriage support configuration, and a table configuration, all of which will be detailed below.
  • Said table 2 is associated to a first pair of bars 5 which are, at one of the ends thereof, respectively and pivotally connected to said at least one hinge 4 and wherein the other ends are mutually joined by means of an axis 6 over which a pair of wheels 7 are respectively mounted in rotary fashion.
  • Said first pair of bars 5 is associated to a second pair of bars 8 , positioned within the space delimited by said first pair of bars 5 , which are pivotally articulated at the vicinity of middle point 9 of said first pair of bars 5 , which are, at one of the ends thereof, mutually joined by means of a first cross-piece 10 which is telescopically connected thereto and which is provided with first locking means 19 for its height adjustment, and wherein the other of its ends are mutually connected by means of a first transverse bar 11 .
  • a third pair of bars 12 are pivotally connected above said first pair of bars 5 and via one of the ends thereof in a point between said middle point 9 and said axis 6 by means of a first coupling element 13 , said third pair of bars 12 being able to pivot towards the front portion of said table 2 .
  • Said second transverse bar may be attached to said other of its ends or it may function as a second cross-piece telescopically coupled to said third pair of bars 12 , said second cross-piece being provided with locking means 20 for the adjustment of the height thereof.
  • a fourth pair of bars 15 are pivotally coupled under said second pair of bars 8 and by one of the ends by means of a second coupling element 16 which is located in the vicinity of the middle point of said first pair of bars 5 , said fourth pair of bars 15 being able to pivot towards the rear portion of said table 2 .
  • the other of the ends thereof are mutually joined by means of a third transverse bar 17 .
  • Said third transverse bar 17 may be attached to said other of the ends thereof or it may function as a third cross-piece telescopically coupled to said fourth pair of bars 15 , said third cross-piece being provided with third locking means 20 ′ for the adjustment of the height thereof.
  • FIGS. 2 and 3 show that said first pair of bars 5 is parallel to said table 2 when said set 1 adopts the folded configuration, the transport carriage configuration or the transport carriage support configuration.
  • said first pair of bars 5 forms a substantially acute angle a with said table 2 when said set 1 adopts the table configuration.
  • said second pair of bars 8 is parallel to said table 2 when said set 1 adopts the folded configuration, the transport carriage configuration or the transport carriage support one, or it forms a substantially acute angle a with said table 2 when said set adopts the table configuration.
  • FIG. 3 shows how cross-piece 10 telescopically displaces outwards from said one of the ends of said second pair of bars 8 , when said set 1 adopts the transport carriage or the transport carrier support configuration, so that the user may hold it.
  • said first transverse bar 11 is positioned above said axis 6 when said set 1 adopts the folded configuration, the transport carriage configuration, or that of transport carriage support, as illustrated by FIGS. 2 and 3 , or rests over said stop 3 of said table 2 when said set 1 adopts the table configuration, as shown by FIG. 4 .
  • Said third pair of bars 12 is parallel to said first pair of bars 5 when said set 1 adopts the folded or table configuration (see FIGS. 2 and 4 ), or forms an angle b with respect to said first pair of bars 5 when said set 1 adopts the transport carriage configuration, or that of transport carriage support, as illustrated by FIG. 3 .
  • Said fourth pair of bars 18 is parallel to said second pair of bars 8 when said set 1 adopts the folded configuration, as shown by FIG. 2 , or forms an angle g with respect to said second pair of bars 8 when said set 1 adopts the transport carriage support configuration (see FIG. 3 ) or the table configuration (see FIG. 4 ). More specifically, said third transverse bar 17 is positioned under said axis 6 when said set 1 adopts the folded or table configuration, or rests on the floor when said set 1 adopts the configuration of transport carriage support.
  • bars of said first, second, third and fourth pairs of bars 5 , 8 , 12 , 15 are substantially parallel among them.
  • said table 2 may have an opening 18 en its centre (see FIG. 4 ) for the insertion of a sun protecting element, such as for example a sunshade (not shown).
  • a sun protecting element such as for example a sunshade (not shown).
