Foldable table

Abstract

A foldable table includes: a tabletop; and left and right leg units, each of which includes a pivot joint and first and second supporting legs. The second S supporting leg has a top end pivoted to the tabletop. The first supporting leg has first and second segments. The first segment is pivoted to the second supporting leg and has an upper end pivoted to the pivot joint. The second segment has a first end pivoted to the pivot joint, and a second end pivoted to the tabletop. The first and second supporting legs are foldable relative to each other from a non-folded position, in which the first and second segments are aligned along an axis, and in which the first segment of the first supporting leg crosses the second supporting leg, to a folded position, in which the first segment of the first supporting leg is substantially parallel to the second supporting leg.

1 . A foldable table comprising: 
 a tabletop; and    left and right leg units, each of which includes a pivot joint and first and second supporting legs, said second supporting leg having top and bottom ends and a middle portion extending between said top and bottom ends of said second supporting leg, said top end of said second supporting leg being pivoted to said tabletop, said first supporting leg having first and second segments, said first segment being pivoted to said middle portion of said second supporting leg, and having an upper end pivoted to said pivot joint, said second segment having a first end disposed above said upper end of said first segment and pivoted to said pivot joint, and a second end pivoted to said tabletop, said first and second supporting legs being foldable relative to each other from a non-folded position, in which said first and second segments are aligned along an axis, in which said second end of said second segment is disposed above said upper end of said first segment, and in which said first segment of said first supporting leg crosses said second supporting leg, to a folded position, in which said first segment of said first supporting leg is substantially parallel to said second supporting leg and in which said second end of said second segment is disposed below said upper end of said first segment.    
   
   
       2 . The foldable table as claimed in  claim 1 , further comprising a pivot shaft extending through said middle portions of said second supporting legs and said first segments of said first supporting legs of said left and right leg units.  
   
   
       3 . The foldable table as claimed in  claim 1 , further comprising a first stretcher that interconnects said first segments of said first supporting legs of said left and right leg units, and a second stretcher that interconnects said second supporting legs of said left and right leg units.  
   
   
       4 . The foldable table as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein said pivot joint is in the form of a U-shaped plate.
