Abstract
A mechanism for attaching a tabletop to at least one vertical support that permits movement of the tabletop with respect to the vertical support consisting of a top plate and a bottom plate, the top plate attachable to the tabletop and the bottom plate being attachable to the vertical support. The two plates are connected by a hinge mechanism that allows movement of the top from a horizontal to a vertical position and also allows the top to be removed from the vertical support for storage. The mechanism has easily operated, releasable locking means for holding the top plate to the bottom plate when the tabletop is in a horizontal position.
