Abstract
A table has at least one table leg and a table top, the at least one table leg being pivotable relative to the table top, between an unfolded position and a folded position, about at least one first joint, wherein a strut is held on the table leg so that, at a first end, it is pivotable about a second joint, is provided for fixation of the table leg, and in the unfolded position of the table leg, it is operatively connected to the table top at a second end, opposite the first end. The table leg has a stop limiting the angle between the table leg and the table top in the unfolded position, such that the strut comes into frictional contact with the second end on a support surface held on the table top. In an unfolded direction of the strut, the support surface extends from a first end to a second end, and the distance from the first end of the support surface to the second joint in the unfolded position of the table leg is greater than the distance from the second end of the support surface to the second joint in the unfolded position of the table leg, so that, in the unfolded position, the strut is in self-locking frictional contact with the support surface.
