Abstract: A convertible table is comprised of a central planar section and two end sections. The end sections are hingedly secured to the central planar section for rotation thereabout. Each end section has a pair of legs fixedly secured thereto. The legs are not capable of movement with respect to the end sections, but rotate with the end sections.Utilizing the aforementioned approach, a number of table designs are possible. For example, to facilitate folding, the pair of legs attached to one end section may have a greater distance therebetween than does the pair of legs attached to the other end section. In this manner, when the end sections are folded to a position perpendicular to the central planar section, a coffee table, or cocktail table or the like having a lower overall height is formed. The end sections support the central planar section and also form two sides of the table. The legs form the other two sides of the table and may also support the central planar section.

Abstract: A collapsible portable ironing board comprises a ironing board top to which first and second pairs of legs are pivotally secured. Each pair of legs is connected respectively to opposite ends of a cross rod that is journalled in brackets for attachment to the underside of the board. Each cross rod includes a crook formed intermediate opposite ends of the rod. The crook extends in a plane offset with respect to the associated legs. To set up the ironing board, the legs pivot outwardly away from the board underside until the offset portions are in flush contact with the underside. To collapse the board, the legs are pivoted into flush contact with the board underside with the crook portions disposed in a plane angularly offset from the underside. Each crook portion defines an opening with the board underside that is inclined with respect to the board so as to be engageable with a mounting hook or the like to store the ironing board on a wall between periods of use.
