Abstract
The present invention provides a portable assembly whose members can be unfolded to form a seat or a table. The assembly comprises five flat members, one member being the seat or table top, and the other being the supporting members. The assembly is preferably unitary with each member being rotably connected with one another at coextensive linear edges that are flexibly connected. In the assembled position, the seat or table top is set upon an upright support member that is set on a bare surface. Another support member is angled upwards to the underside of the seat member, while yet another support member meets the angled support member at the underside of the horizontal seat, or table, member. Still another support member extends approximately horizontally at surface height to brace the other three support members connecting to the upright member by a demantable connecting means. In the disassembled, folded, position, the five members fold against one another, with two pairs of members being nested.
