Patent ID: 8397651

Claim:
A configurable table assembly, comprising: two separate table-base sub-assemblies shaped to connect together removably; and two separate table-surface sub-assemblies each supported by a respective one of the two table-base sub-assemblies and each having first and second surface portions, the second surface portion being operable to rest upon the first surface portion and selectively unfold away from the first surface portion, the table-base sub-assemblies and the table-surface sub-assemblies together having at least a single-table configuration and a double-table configuration in which: in the single-table configuration: the two table-base sub-assemblies are mated together separably to form an integrated table base; and the two table-surface sub-assemblies are mated together separably to form an integrated table surface having a substantially planar upper table surface; and in the double-table configuration: the two table-base sub-assemblies are separated from one another to form two separate tables each supporting thereon a respective one of the table-surface sub-assemblies; and each of the table-surface sub-assemblies has the second surface portion unfolded away from the first surface portion and onto at least a portion of the respective one of the table-base sub-assemblies, each pair of first and second surface portions forming, together, a substantially planar upper table surface; the integrated table base comprising one of: two generally cylindrical bases nested together, each having a curved outer surface correspondingly shaped to mate with each other; and two sets of table leg members, each set having at least one table leg member movable relative to the other table leg members.
