  • Patent number: 4829910
    Abstract: A folding table comprising a hollow vertical cabinet and a two section table extending to one side wherein the outboard section is substantially smaller than the inboard section. The inboard section slides vertically into a vertical cabinet, with the cabinet top open. Upon insertion of the inboard section, the outboard section forms a side table. A telescoping support, extending from the outboard section to the bottom of the vertical cabinet, provides necessary support to the extended table and includes a gravity actuated hidden latch within the support cover. The latch engages and releases depending on the angular position of the support and includes means to prevent unlatching from inadvertent vibration or jarring of the table.
