Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A storable structure of table and chair comprising:
 a tabletop;   at least one chair member positioned adjacent the tabletop, each of the at least one chair member comprising:   a chair;   a lifting device connected to the chair for vertically lifting or lowering the chair, wherein when a force is applied downwardly, the chair is lowered to adapt to abut against a floor, and the chair is lifted upwardly by the lifting device without the force; and   a sliding device connected to the lifting device and the tabletop, wherein the chair slides horizontally under the tabletop via the sliding device for storage.   
     
     
         2 . The storable structure of table and chair as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the sliding device comprises a guide rail disposed beneath the tabletop and a cantilever having a first portion slidably moved along the guide rail and a second portion connected to the lifting device; the chair moves along the guide rail relatively to the tabletop. 
     
     
         3 . The storable structure of table and chair as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the chair comprises a seat and a chair base having an upper end pivotally attached to the seat, the chair base sleeved by the lifting device thereon. 
     
     
         4 . The storable structure of table and chair as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the chair comprises a plurality of casters located underneath the chair for freely moving on the floor. 
     
     
         5 . The storable structure of table and chair as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the lifting device is a spring member. 
     
     
         6 . The storable structure of table and chair as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the lifting device is a pneumatic cylinder. 
     
     
         7 . The storable structure of table and chair as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the lifting device is a set of worm and gear. 
     
     
         8 . The storable structure of table and chair as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein the cantilever has a vertical portion connects to the first portion and second portion. 
     
     
         9 . The storable structure of table and chair as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein the guide rail comprises a T-shaped groove defined therein for receiving the first portion. 
     
     
         10 . The storable structure of table and chair as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein the second portion of the cantilever connects to the lifting device surrounding the chair base for supporting the chair away from the floor. 
     
     
         11 . The storable structure of table and chair as claimed in  claim 8 , wherein the first portion is parallel to the guide rail, the first portion and the second portion both connecting to the vertical portion in an L shape, wherein the first portion is perpendicular to the second portion.
