Abstract
A console (10) is disclosed which comprises a console top (12), a first member (14), and a second member (16) coupled to the first member (14) via a mechanism. The mechanism (17) is movable between a first configuration in which the first member (14) closes a recess (18) in the console top (12), and a second configuration in which the first member (14) extends away from the console top (12) and the second member (16) is arranged such that it can support a load while the mechanism (17) is retained in the second configuration.
Claims28
A console comprising:
- a console top;
- a first member;
- and
- a second member coupled to the first member via a mechanism, wherein the mechanism is arranged to be movable between:
- a first configuration in which the first member is arranged in a stowed position and the second member closes an opening in the console top, and
- a second configuration in which the first member is arranged in a working position, in which it can support a load while the mechanism is retained in the second configuration, and the second member extends away from the console top.

A console comprising:
- a console top;
- a first member;
- a second member coupled to the first member;
- and
- a mechanism comprising two connecting members, one located at each side of the console, each pivotally coupled to the first member and second member, the connecting members each having first and second guide tracks guiding the movement of the first and second members respectively, and wherein the mechanism is arranged to be pivotable between:
- a first configuration, in which the first member is arranged in a stowed position and the second member closes an opening in the console top, and
- a second configuration, in which the first member is arranged in a working position in which it can support a load while the mechanism is retained in the second configuration, and the second member extends away from the console top and is pivotable with respect to the mechanism, so as to tilt the second member.
