Table

A table with table leaves defining a table area when said leaves are in a first retracted position, said table leaves being displaceable away from one another in a second extended position and having additional leaves which are hingedly interconnected and adapted to be unfolded between said table leaves for abutting said table leaves when said table leaves are in said second extended position to extend said table area, each said additional leaves having hinged rim portions (8,9) thereof and stored in a folded condition in a storing chamber situated centrally below the table, said additional leaves being additionally connected to a vertically displaceable carrying member (11) for moving said leaves in said folded condition vertically along a moving path defined by said storing chamber;

• said table further including guide means (12) having at least one connecting member (14,15) for supporting each additional leaf (6, 7) at a substantially fixed and relatively short distance from said hinged rim portions (8, 9) thereof, each said at least one connecting member (14, 15) hingedly connected at a first end to a bottom side of a respective one of said additional leaves to thereby form hinged connections (18,19) thereat, and connected at a second end to said displaceable carrying member (11) at a location substantially vertically below said hinged connection (18, 19) of each respective additional leaf (6, 7) when said additional leaves (6, 7) are in said folded condition, both said hinged connections (18,19) defining axes of rotation extending parallel to said hinged rims (8, 9) of said additional leaves (6, 7).
