Abstract
A flip-top table has a tabletop attached to a frame through a pivoting assembly. The tabletop is made from a ballistic resistant material and serves as a ballistic shield, rotating from its horizontal working position to a vertical shielding position. A front modesty panel is also ballistic-resistant and is mounted on the frame's front side with either a fixed connected to the frame or a hinged connection to the tabletop. A lift speed restrictor is connected between the tabletop and the frame, preventing the tabletop from being lifted too quickly and toppling the table, and it includes a biasing mechanism that provides a lifting force and helps to hold the tabletop in the shielding position. Visual markings on the table indicate to persons that the table can be used as a ballistic shield. Casters allow one or more tables to be quickly moved and repositioned into a defensive arrangement.
