  • Patent number: 4170182
    Abstract: A folding work table, or the like, having two rectangular platforms joined by four foldable legs with a pair of lateral support members on each side for releasably locking the legs in an erected position. Each leg is hingedly connected at its opposite ends to the perspective platforms and is divided at an intermediate point into hingedly connected upper and lower sections. Unique coupling means are provided for releasably maintaining the lateral supports in locking engagement with the sections. Also, a brace maintains one end of the upper platform in a partly folded position to prevent binding as the lateral supports are removed with locking engagement with the leg sections, whereby the structure may easily be moved between erected and folded positions by a single individual. The lower platform is mounted upon wheels or casters and a movable handle is provided for movement of the entire structure in either the erected or folded positions.
