Claims20
A table apparatus comprising:
- a table device;
- a latch release mechanism to lock said table device in a stowed position, said latch release mechanism comprising a movable latch, wherein, in said stowed position of said table device, said latch release mechanism being configured to be unlocked by pressing said table device against said movable latch such that said movable latch moves from a locked position to an unlocked position to release said table device out of said stowed position.
A table apparatus comprising:
- a table device;
- a table support structure connected to said table device, said table support structure comprising a carrier structure and a table support linkage, said carrier structure being connected to said table support linkage via a pivot connection, said table support structure defining a single pivot point, wherein said table device pivots about only said single pivot point in a pivoting movement;
- a track structure;
- a guide track;
- a guide pin arranged in said guide track, said guide pin being connected to said carrier structure, wherein said carrier structure is movably mounted to said track structure such that said carrier structure moves in a linear direction in a linear movement by moving said guide pin in said guide track when said carrier structure moves in said linear direction, and said table device is movable between a stowed position and a deployed position based on said linear movement of said carrier structure and said pivoting movement of said table device in one horizontal plane.
