Полезная модель относится к области производства мебели, преимущественно конторской и может быть использована для изготовления металлических каркасов столов.К техническому результату заявляемой полезной модели относится повышение надежности крепления элементов каркаса стола за счет выполнения опорного элемента в виде рамной конструкции с объемными узлами крепления, состоящими из трех частей, выполненными в виде прямоугольных или квадратных профилей, и выполнением центральной части узла крепления изогнутой под углом, а также выполнением ножек-опор с кронштейном в виде Г-образного профиля.Достижение данного технического результата обеспечивается тем, что КАРКАС СТОЛА содержит опорный элемент, расположенный горизонтально оси стола, ножки в виде стоек. К ножкам присоединены в верхней части горизонтальные траверсы, а также соединительные элементы в виде узлов крепления. При этом опорный элемент выполнен в виде рамной конструкции, содержащей две продольные и две поперечные траверсы. Углы рамной конструкции снабжены объемными узлами крепления. Каждый их узлов крепления содержит три части, выполненные в виде прямоугольных или квадратных профилей, которые по граням снабжены фасками, при этом центральная часть узла крепления выполнена изогнутой под тупым углом, а две другие расположены по краям центральной части и вставлены в нее. Причем в одной из половин центральной части узла крепления выполнены расположенные друг под другом два сквозных отверстия для фиксации крепежных элементов, а каждая крайняя часть узла крепления снабжена также одним сквозным отверстием для фиксации крепежных элементов. В свою очередь каждая ножка-опора каркаса снабжена кронштейном и выполнена в виде Г-образного профиля. Кроме того, каждая ножка-опора каркаса может быть снабжена двумя кронштейнами для возможности крепления дополнительной столешницы.

This invention relates to a drop leaf table angular adjustment mechanism. The leaf and tabletop are pivotally connected with a hinge, in which a positioning ratchet plate with multiple angular positioning ratchet teeth to the underside of the tabletop hinge. On the rear of the leaf hinge set, there consists of a positioning plate with a curvature slot. The positioning ratchet plate and positioning plate are pivotally connected with a pivot bolt to form a mechanism for the providing the leaf angular lean adjustment. On the backside of the positioning plate there is a ladle-shape pawl on the downside of the positioning ratchet plate, wherein the pawl engages with any of the ratchet teeth of the positioning ratchet plate to obtain a relative stop position between the tabletop and leaf. The operation which releases the pawl from engagement can adjust the leaf to an arbitrarily lean angle adjustment.

A modular portable stand that can be quickly and easily assembled and disassembled by a solo user without the need for any tools or hardware in a very short time. In its disassembled condition, the stand includes a first and second base frame, a first and second side frame, and four legs, for a total component count of eight, with only three unique components, the base frame, side frame, and leg. The modularity of components provides simplified manufacturing, while allowing for relatively small disassembled packaging for transport, shipping or storage. The interlocking of the components at each corner provides a stiff and sturdy perimeter frame when assembled, that becomes more rigid as loaded with plant propagation trays, fish tanks, or other heavy items than require level secure support.

Thus, the furniture has two different uses, but switching between them simply requires placing the piece of furniture in a different arrangement instead of removing or adding parts or moving parts relative to each other. Specifically, the piece of furniture is generally “flipped-over” to switch between arrangements.
