Stabilized ironing board

An ironing table of adjustable height and collapsed during storage comprising:

• a table memeber of predetermined width having an upper and a lower surface, means for adjusting the height of said table attached to said lower surface, a front leg and a rear leg for supporting said table member connected thereto, one of said legs being pivotally attached to said bottom surface and the other being pivotally attached to said adjusting means.
• a transverse hollow tubular foot member for at least one of said legs, connected to said leg at the outer circumferential surface of said member, at a point proximate to but laterally displaced from the mid-point between the ends of said member,
• at least one hollow tubular sleeve means located within said foot member and coaxial therewith, wherein the outer circumferential surface of said sleeve means is substantially in contact with the inner circumferential surface of said foot member,
• a pair of tubular extension members located within each said foot member and coaxial therwith wherein the outer circumferential surface of said extension members is substantially in contact with the inner circumferential surface of said sleeve means, wherein a portion of each of said extension members protrudes from the respective end of said foot member,
• first blocking means located at each end of said foot members prevent said sleeve member from sliding out of said foot member,
• second block means located at the end of each of said extension means distal to the protruding end thereof interacting with a said sleeve member whereby said extension means is prevented from sliding completely out of said sleeve member and
• cap means having a distal end and a proximal end with an opening therein, said opening circumferentially surrounding the protruding ends of said extension members wherein the external cross-sectional diameter of said cap means perpendicular to the axis of the foot member, is at least as great as the maximum external cross-sectional diameter of foot member perpendicular to the axis of the foot member.
