Abstract:
A portable, expandable project plan table, comprising:(a) a frame having a generally rectangular base, right and left sides, a front and a back; (b) a table top rotatably secured to the frame along the back opposite the base and having an opened position and a closed position, wherein the table top covers the frame in a closed position and permits access to the interior of the frame for storage when in the opened position; (c) a fastening device for securing the table top in the closed position; and (d) a plurality of legs, one leg pivotally connected with each corner of the base opposite the table top, each leg being further connected with a remote portion of the base by a pivot brace such that the legs may be moved between a vertical position and a horizontal position under the base, said pivot brace stabilizing each leg and preventing its movement beyond the vertical position, the legs on the right side of the base being rigidly connected by a brace so they pivot together and the legs on the left side of the base being rigidly connected by a brace so they pivot together, the pivot point for the legs on the right side being at a first distance below the base and the pivot point for the legs on the left side of the base being at a second distance below the base, the first and second distances being different, wherein the legs fold under the base in an overlapping relationship without extending beyond the base; each leg further including an outer leg segment and an inner leg segment, the inner leg segment being movably disposed within the outer leg segment to permit relative movement of the segments for independent adjustment of the length of each leg.
