Abstract:

The fold-away table is attached to an underside of a chair, sofa or the like. The fold-away table provides for the use of two parallel rails which are attached to the underside of the chair, along which rails a carriage slides forward and rearward in relation to the chair. One of the rails carries a locking bar with teeth formed on its inner side which match and interlock with teeth of a locking piece carried by the carriage, so as to secure position of the carriage in relation to the chair when extended. The carriage has a table top leg support which pivots to a vertical orientation and which has a table top supported on one of its tubular members. A tilting mechanism carried by the tubular member allows tilting of the table top to an angle most convenient for the user. A release mechanism which is mounted on the forward end of one of the rails is activated by foot of the user, when necessary, to release locking engagement of the locking bar and the locking piece.
