Abstract:
1. A table comprising: a table top constructed from plastic and including a hollow interior portion formed during the manufacturing process, the table top including a working surface, a mounting surface, a first side, a second side, a first end, a second end and an outer periphery; a first generally downwardly extending side wall disposed along the first side of the table top that is formed as a unitary portion of the table top during the manufacturing process, the first side wall including a hollow interior portion that is in direct communication with the hollow interior portion of the table top; a second generally downwardly extending side wall disposed along the second side of the table top that is formed as a unitary portion of the table top during the manufacturing process, the second side wall including a hollow interior portion that is in direct communication with the hollow interior portion of the table top; a first generally downwardly extending end wall disposed along the first end of the table top that is formed as a unitary portion of the table top during the manufacturing process, the first end wall including a hollow interior portion that is in direct communication with the hollow interior portion of the table top; a second generally downwardly extending end wall disposed along the second end of the table top that is formed as a unitary portion of the table top during the manufacturing process, the second end wall including a hollow interior portion that is in direct communication with the hollow interior portion of the table top; a plurality of depressions disposed in the mounting surface of the table top, the plurality of depressions including at least five rows of generally aligned depressions extending along a length of the table top, the plurality of depressions including at least ten columns of generally aligned depressions extending along a width of the table top; a metal frame connected to the mounting surface of the table top by a plurality of fasteners, the frame including a first side rail disposed proximate the first side wall of the table top, a second side rail disposed proximate the second side wall of the table top, a first end rail disposed proximate the first end wall of the table top and a second end rail disposed proximate the second end wall of the table top; a first support pedestal pivotally connected to the frame, the first support pedestal being selectively movable between an extended position and a collapsed position relative to the table top, the first support pedestal being disposed generally parallel and adjacent to the mounting surface of the table top in the collapsed position, the first support pedestal extending generally outwardly from the table top in the extended position; a second support pedestal pivotally connected to the frame, the second support pedestal being selectively movable between an extended position and a collapsed position relative to the table top, the second support pedestal being disposed generally parallel and adjacent to the mounting surface of the table top in the collapsed position, the second support pedestal extending generally outwardly from the table top in the extended position; a first cross brace member at least partially disposed between the first support pedestal and the second support pedestal; a second cross brace member at least partially disposed between the first support pedestal and the second support pedestal; a first pivotal support brace including a proximal end pivotally connected to the first support pedestal and a distal end pivotally connected to the first cross brace member; and a second pivotal support brace including a proximal end pivotally connected to the second support pedestal and a distal end pivotally connected to the second cross brace member.
