Abstract
A table apparatus comprises a table frame and a table top. The table frame includes a plurality of legs comprising a primary leg and one or more secondary legs and a plurality of support rails extending between the primary leg and the one or more secondary legs. The one or more secondary legs are configured to pivot with respect to the primary leg about the connection between the support rails and the primary leg, and hence the table frame is foldable. The table top rests on top of the plurality of legs. In constructing the table apparatus, the legs are unfolded and positioned upright, and the table top is affixed on top of the legs. In some embodiments, multiple table frames can be erected and positioned to accommodate larger or differently shaped table tops.

A table comprising:
- at least one frame having a top end and a bottom end, the frame comprising;
- a primary leg;
- two secondary legs, each of the secondary legs adjacent to the primary leg;
- and
- a plurality of support rails extending between the primary leg and each of the secondary legs, each of the plurality of support rails comprising a pivotable connection between the primary leg and each of the secondary legs;
- wherein the secondary legs are configured to pivot with respect to the primary leg about the pivotable connection between the support rails and the primary leg;
- a flat top attached to the at least one frame at the top end of the at least one frame, the at least one flat top having a working surface.
A method for assembling a table, the method comprising:
- expanding at least one frame from a stowed position to an expanded position, the frame comprising a primary leg and at least two secondary legs extending from a bottom end of the frame to a top end of the frame, the at least two secondary legs pivotably coupled to the primary leg via a plurality of support rails;
