Abstract
A table having a top supported by a leg structure which projects downwardly from the underside of the top. The leg structure including right and left leg arrangements secured under the table adjacent opposite ends thereof, each leg arrangement including a bottom leg part which includes parallel and upright lower front and rear leg members rigidly joined together by a plurality of vertically spaced and horizontally extending cross rods. The front and rear leg members have upper portions telescopically received within individual front and rear upper leg parts, which upper leg parts and lower leg members have a series of cooperating holes which accommodate a removable locking element to permit telescopic height adjustment. The upper leg parts have transversely extending upper tubular portions which project longitudinally of the table under the undersurface of the top. These upper tubular portions are oriented so that the front and rear upper leg parts each have the upper tubular portions aligned and rigidly joined to elongate front and rear tubes extending therebetween directly adjacent the undersurface of the top adjacent the front and rear edges respectively. These support tubes in turn are rotatably positioned within brackets which are fixed to the underside of the top and enables the adjusted height of the front and rear leg arrangements to be slightly different.
