Abstract
A table includes a table top and a table frame. The table frame preferably includes one or more side rails, end rails, table legs, and support braces. The table also includes a mounting structure that is provided on the underside of the table top. At least a portion of a support assembly is connected to the mounting structure. Desirably, the mounting structure and the support assembly are disposed towards the center portion of the table, but the mounting structure and/or support assembly could be located in any desired portion of the table. Preferably, one end of the support braces is pivotally attached to the support assembly and the other end is pivotally attached to a table leg. Advantageously, the support assembly provides a 'planar' support area to a portion of the table top. In addition, the mounting structure forms a unitary storage space around the mounting structure on the bottom surface of the table top so that structures of table legs from opposing sides can share the storage space in embodiments of tables having shorter table tops.
