The present disclosure relates to an item of furniture, in particular a table, having at least one length-adjustable leg. The length-adjustable leg includes a first telescopic element which is realized as a hollow body, as well as a second telescopic element which is mounted inside the first telescopic element so as to linearly displaceable along a first axis. A locking device which is arranged on the second telescopic element comprises at least one first pin which is movable using an actuating device from a first position, in which the at least one first pin prevents the movement of the first telescopic element relative to the second telescopic element as a result of a force-fitting connection or form-fitting connection, into a second position in which the displacement is not prevented. In addition, the locking device has at least one second pin which is movable by the actuating device from a first state, where the at least one second pin is pressed against an inside surface of a wall of the first telescopic element in order to brace the second telescopic element in relation to the first telescopic element, and a second state where the at least one second pin is at a spacing from the wall of the first telescopic element.
A furniture item having at least one length-adjustable leg, wherein the length-adjustable leg includes the following:
The furniture item according to 2, wherein the second pin is mounted in the locking device in such a manner that that it is movable along a third axis which is at right angles to the first axis, wherein a movement of the actuating device in opposition to a second resetting force, which acts on the second pin, from the locked position into the unlocked position is converted using a second sliding block into a movement of the second pin along the third axis from the first state to the second state, and the third axis is at right angles to the second axis.
