Abstract: To allow adjustment of the table top of a table the table top is connected to the subframe of the table by means of a rigid U-shaped member, the branches of which are pivotally connected to the subframe about a horizontal axis, and the intermediate part of which is pivotally connected to the table top about an axis extending parallel with the pivot axis of the branches. A first telescopically extensible rod, the length of which is adjustable from a predetermined initial length which corresponds to the distance between the pivot axis of the branches and the pivot axis of the intermediate part of the U-shaped member, has one end pivotally connected with the frame at a distance from the pivot axis of the branches, and the other end pivotally connected with the table top at a distance from the pivot axis of the intermediate part, which distance corresponds to the distance between one end of the first rod and the pivot axis of the branches.
