Abstract
A leg support assembly for a table includes a leg support member, which receives and retains a table leg, and a connector which is attachable to the underside of a table top. The support member has a plurality of plugs which are receivable in sockets provided in the connector plate. When the connector plates are fastened to the corners of two abutting table tops, the leg support member can be mated with two connector plates thereby spanning the joint between the tables and providing support for a single leg. Thereby, the duplication of legs at the table joint is eliminated.
