Claim:
An adjustable height table, including a tabletop and adjustable table legs; each of said table legs including an inner tube connected to said tabletop and an outer tube slidably mounted on said inner tube; each said inner tube including a concave keyway along the length thereof, and a snap locking device in the bottom end of said inner tube; said snap locking device including a sleeve to fit into said inner tube, a compression spring within said sleeve, and a dowel pin urged by said spring through a radial hole in the wall of said inner tube; each said outer tube including holes spaced along the length thereof and a bushing disposed in the top end thereof, said bushing including a tubular sleeve to fit within said outer tube, a flange to abut the top of said outer tube, and an inward protuberant key to slidably fit within the concave keyway of said inner tube to thereby prevent rotation of said outer tube relative to said inner tube; whereby length adjustment of said table leg is made by depressing said dowel pin and sliding said outer tube along said inner tube until said dowel pin snaps into a desired one of said holes in said outer tube.
