Abstract
A dismantlable table includes a tabletop that is fastened by a fastening component to a structure forming a frame, the structure having a lip that lies flat under the tabletop. Each fastening component includes a latch that is rotatable about a vertical axis, having at least one laterally protruding boss, and includes a recess formed under the tabletop that has at least one protrusion facing the axis. In a mounting position, the bosses pass into the recess next to the protrusions, and in a locking position following rotation, the bosses fit above the protrusions, a lower bearing plane of the latch lying under the lip of the structure.

A dismountable table comprising:
- a tabletop fastened by a plurality of fasteners on a structure forming a frame, wherein the structure includes a flange coming flat under the tabletop, each fastener comprising a latch, rotatable along an axis of rotation which is vertical, having at least one boss projecting laterally, and comprising a recess, formed under the tabletop, having at least one protrusion oriented towards the axis of rotation, in a mounting position the at least one boss of each latch fitting into the respective recess next to the respective at least one protrusion, and in a blocking position after rotation the at least one boss of each latch fitting above the respective at least one protrusion, a lower bearing plane of each latch coming under the flange of the structure.
A method for assembling a dismountable tabletop on a structure by a plurality of fasteners, wherein the structure comprises a flange coming flat under the tabletop, for each fastener the method includes the following steps:
- inserting an upper portion of a latch, rotatable along an axis of rotation which is vertical, comprising at least one boss projecting laterally, in a recess, formed under the tabletop, having at least one protrusion oriented towards the axis of rotation,
- rotating the latch towards a blocking position, inserting the least one boss above the respective at least one protrusion, and
- sliding a lower bearing plane of the latch under the flange of the structure.
