  • Patent number: 6182581
    Abstract: A modular table, such as a conference table is constructed of a plurality of detachable, connected modules. Each module has a three-sided top formed by connecting three three-sided sections. Each three-sided section has a base side forming an outer edge of the module top, a first side and a second side. The first and second sides are joined at an angle of 120°, and are preferably of different lengths, so that a central opening is formed in the top of each module. The base side of at least one section of each module is convex. A base supporting each module preferably has an opening so that utilities can be connected from a floor beneath the table to the table top through openings in the modules and base.

  • Patent number: 6012398
    Abstract: A modular table, such as a conference table is constructed of a plurality of detachable, connected modules. Each module has a top in the shape of an equilateral triangle that is formed by connecting three identical triangular sections, each triangular section has a base side forming an outer edge of the module top, a second side and a third side. The second and third sides are joined at an angle of 120.degree.. Preferably, the second and third said of each triangular section are of different lengths, so that a central opening is formed in the top of each module. A base supporting each module preferably has an opening so that utilities can be connected from a floor beneath the table to the table top through openings in the modules and base.
