  • Patent number: 4423849
    Abstract: A self-supporting structure is provided which may be useful for a plant stand or as a support for garden crops, or other purposes. The structure includes three legs and a clinch plate having a hole therethrough for each leg, the holes being slightly larger than the legs and extending through the clinch plate at angles relative to the axis of the group of holes and relative to the axis of the radius of each hole. The legs extend through the clinch plate and converge in frictional binding relation to each other at a zone of convergence spaced from the clinch plate. That zone of convergence and the engagement of the legs with the upper and lower edges of the holes through the clinch plate provide the only support for the structure and it is self-supporting without any extraneous means such as glue, nails, or the like. A table top may be supported on or adjacent the upper ends of the legs.
