A shelf stores items and provides for organized and attractive display with ease of item access. Conforming to a defined physical environment or variable storage space optimally requires the shelf to provide for both vertical and horizontal adjustment. Here this is accomplished by a pair of legs that are telescopic (to reduce size) and can be locked at a height (vertical adjustment) by use of a pawl, pin, screw or other fastener known in the art. The shelf includes a planar surface that is comprised of a shelf portion, which is supported on each distal end by a leg extension. The leg extensions are mounted to the upper area of the legs. The leg extensions are received by the shelf portion, being movably mounted thereto. This allows for horizontal (width) adjustment. An end cover can be used to provide a flat surface that is consistent with the upper surface of the shelf portion. Feet are added to provide a more solid footing, the feet being removable and providing a mounting tab at the end of the legs and a mounting tab receiver at the opposite end of the legs. This allows for multiple shelves to be securely mounted one on the other.

The invention relates to a table which has variable dimensions, especially a long length, and is mainly used in offices and conferences. The base of the table is supported by feet (6) and carries table leaves (1,1) which are brought together at the longitudinal sides thereof, and an insert (8,81) which can be inserted in-between said leaves, can have different configurations and can be used as a support for various structures. The base of said table comprises at least two transversal supports (2) provided with a central sunken channel region (20) from which two extension arms (21) respectively extended in opposite directions, the feet (6) being mounted on said arms, and lateral struts (4) supporting the table leaves (1,1) being arranged on the outside. The transversal supports (2) are interspaced in a parallel manner, perpendicularly in relation to the longitudinal direction of the table. An upwardly open sheet metal channel (3) having a preferably trapeziform cross-section is fixed in the longitudinal direction of the table on the two transversal supports (2). Containers (9′) for CPUs are suspended below the table in free positions on the lateral struts (4). The particular advantages of said table are essentially the stability, even for a long structure, and relatively low construction costs. The freedom in the dimensioning, the various inserts (8,81) and the differrent structures create a design which is adapted to individual requirements.
