Abstract
A table includes a frame, a table top coupled to an upper portion of the frame, and a plurality of stools coupled to legs of the frame. The stools are swingable relative to the frame from a retracted-storage position to an extended use-position. The stools are arranged to engage with a surface beneath the table in the extended-use position to support a user of the table relative to the table top. The stools are arranged substantially within a perimeter of the table top in the retracted-storage position for access around the table.
Claims20
A table comprising:
- a frame;
- a table top coupled to the frame for supporting the table top above a surface;
- and
- a stool coupled to the frame for movement relative to the frame between a retracted-storage position and an extended-use position,
- wherein the stool is arranged at a first height above the surface in the retracted-storage position and the stool is arranged at a second height above the surface in the extended-use position, and the second height is less than the first height.
A table comprising:
- a frame having a plurality of legs;
- a table top coupled to the frame for supporting the table top above a surface;
- and
- a plurality of stools coupled to the plurality of legs of the frame, each stool of the plurality of stools configured for movement relative to the frame between a retracted-storage position and an extended-use position,
- wherein the plurality of stools are arranged at a first height above the surface in the retracted-storage position and the plurality of stools are arranged at a second height above the surface in the extended-use position, and the second height is less than the first height.
A table comprising:
- a frame having a leg and a cross-brace;
- a table top coupled to the frame for supporting the table top above a surface;
- and
- a stool having a hinge and a seat, the hinge coupled to the leg and the seat coupled to the hinge, the hinge configured to allow movement of the seat relative to the frame between a retracted-storage position and an extended-use position,
- wherein the seat is arranged at a first height above the surface in the retracted-storage position and the seat is arranged at a second height above the surface in the extended-use position, the second height is less than the first height, the seat moves away from the table top and toward the surface with movement of the seat from the retracted-storage position to the extended-use position, and the hinge engages with the cross-brace to support the stool in the retracted-storage position.
