Abstract: A folding table construction embodying a planar top, foldable legs and a novel apron assembly connected to the underside of the top. The apron unit comprises elongated discrete, relatively short straight lengths of formed metal side and end strips, or stringers, which are securely interconnected together by spaced apart, one-piece, blow molded corner moldings adapted to be affixed to the underside of the table top. Due to the novel design of the corner moldings and the stringers, the construction of the supporting apron requires no metal bending or welding. Further, the corner moldings can be colored during the molding step and the stringers can be painted to match in small painting units prior to apron assembly. In an alternate form of the invention, the planar top is constructed in two pieces and the side stringers are constructed in two pieces which are hingably interconnected so that the table top can be folded for ease of transport and storage.

Abstract: A utility chair having spaced apart leg members, a frame supported by the leg members having a base portion and a back portion, the improvement consisting of a one-piece blow molded hollow back member and a one-piece blow molded hollow seat member adapted to be mounted on the base portion. The seat member comprises integrally formed front, back, top, and bottom walls. The top wall is vertically spaced from the bottom wall and is yieldably deformable. An upstanding reinforcing member is integrally formed with the bottom wall for providing rigidity to the seat member while at the same time permitting the top wall to flex downwardly a limited distance upon downward forces being exerted on the upper surfaces of the seat, thereby providing a cushioning effect.
