Abstract
A reconfigurable banquet table includes a table top, a plurality of retaining clips, and two or more base members. The table top bottom surface includes a plurality of pairs of openings. A corresponding plurality of retaining clips are secured thereat. Each retaining clip includes a first flange and a second flange extending from a plate. Each base member includes first and second legs connected a set distance apart. The first and second legs of each base member are received in one pair of the table top openings, and releasably secured therein by the corresponding retaining clips, with one side of each of the first and second legs engaged by the second flange of the respective retaining clip, to cause deflection of the second flange to provide suitable retaining forces. Easy removability of the base members permits interchangeability without requiring tools, for greater functional/aesthetic versatility, easier transport, and more compact storage.
