A through hole 1a suitable for installing the storage basin 2 is provided on the table top 1. The storage basin 2 is a retractable folding basin and can be formed into an unfolded storage state and a folded and retracted state. When the storage basin 2 is in the retracted state, the storage basin 2 can be stored in the through hole 1a without affecting the normal use or normal folding of the table top 1.

[0032] In this embodiment, in order to make the storage basin 2 have a sealing function, so that the storage basin 2 can be better used to store things, reference is made to Figure 1 、 Figure 6 and Figure 12 As shown, the storage basin 2 here is also matched with a basin cover 4. When the folding table is in the folded state, the basin cover can be detachably stored at the bottom of the table top.

[0033] In order to optimize the overall structure of the storage basin 2 so that the side walls of the storage basin 2 can be better folded up and down, refer to Figures 8 to 11 As shown, the storage basin 2 in this embodiment includes a bottom 21 and a side portion 22 surrounding the bottom 21. The side portion 22 includes a top ring portion 221 mounted on the table top 1 and a side wall portion 222 that is at least partially flexible and can be folded up and down to form an expanded or folded state.

[0034] Secondly, in order to better fold the side portion 22 up and down, the side wall portion 222 here is inclined outward from bottom to top to facilitate folding up or folding down. After folding, the side wall portion 222 remains flush or basically flush with the upper surface of the table top 1.

[0035] At the same time, in order to diversify the storage depth of the storage basin 2, refer to Figure 8 and Figure 10 As shown, the side wall portion 222 in this embodiment includes an upper side wall 2b1, a lower side wall 2b2 and an adjustment sleeve 2b3 located between the upper side wall 2b1 and the lower side wall 2b2. The upper side wall 2b1 is flexible and connected between the top ring portion 221 and the adjustment sleeve 2b3. The lower side wall 2b2 is flexible and connected between the adjustment sleeve 2b3 and the bottom 21. By folding the upper side wall 2b1 and / or the lower side wall 2b2, the storage basin 2 has a variety of usage forms. Figure 8 This is a schematic diagram of the storage basin 2 unfolded to a deep bucket state. Figure 9 This is a schematic diagram of the storage basin 2 unfolded to a shallow bucket state. Figure 10 This is a schematic diagram of the storage basin 2 folded to the storage state, where the top ring 221, the adjustment sleeve 2b3 and the bottom 21 of the storage basin can all be made of hard materials to better drive the upper side wall 2b1 and the lower side wall 2b2 to be folded.

[0036] In addition, in order to make the storage basin 2 more convenient to be installed on the table top 1 and to achieve detachable, refer to Figure 8 As shown, in this embodiment, the top edge of the top ring portion 221 is formed with a curling edge 2a extending outward, and the periphery of the through hole 1a is formed with an installation groove 1b for the installation and adaptation of the curling edge 2a. The top ring portion 221 and the table top 1 can be detachably installed together by setting fasteners 3.

[0037] In order to position the storage basin 2 on the table top 2 more accurately and firmly, the rolled edge 2a here is specially made to include a horizontal edge 2a1 extending laterally and a vertical edge 2a2 extending vertically. A rib 1b1 is formed in the installation groove 1b, which is upwardly protruding and adapted to the inner side of the vertical edge 2a2. The mutual limitation of the vertical edge 2a2 and the rib 1b1 prevents the storage basin 2 from moving or shaking laterally.

[0038] In this embodiment, in order to better install the basin cover 4 on the bottom of the table 1, refer to Figure 12 As shown, the basin cover 4 is also provided with a locking device 5 which enables the basin cover 4 to be detachably locked to the bottom of the table top 1. The locking device 5 includes a locking knob 5a which is passed through the basin cover 4 and a locking nut 5b which is used to constrain the locking knob 5a on the basin cover 4. The table top 1 is provided with a threaded hole 1c for threaded connection of the locking knob 5a. The locking nut 5b and the locking knob 5a are also threadedly connected. When the locking knob 5a is rotated to detach the locking knob 5a from the table top 1, the threaded connection between the locking nut 5b and the locking knob 5 can prevent the locking nut 5b and the locking knob 5 from detaching from the basin cover 4, thereby avoiding accidental loss.

[0039] refer to Figure 6 and Figure 12As shown, in order to enable the basin cover 4 to be more firmly locked to the bottom of the table top 1 when stored, in this embodiment, a first positioning groove 4a is also formed on the basin cover 4, and a positioning block 1d that can adapt to the first positioning groove 4a is formed at the bottom of the table top 1. After the locking knob 5a passes through the positioning groove 4a and the positioning block 1d, the inverted basin cover 4 is locked on the table top 1. The bottom of the table top 1 is also provided with a second positioning groove 4b for adapting to the edge of the basin cover 4 when the basin cover 4 is in an inverted locked state.

[0040] In this embodiment, in order to make the table top with storage basin 2 also be able to be folded and stored better, Figures 5 to 7 As shown, the table top 1 here includes a first table top 11 and a second table top 12 which can be folded with each other. The first table top 11 and the second table top 12 are both injection molded plates or blow molded plates. The bottoms of the first table top 11 and the second table top 12 are both provided with table legs 13. The through hole 1a and the storage basin 2 are both provided on the first table top 11. The basin cover 4 can be installed on the bottom of the second table top 12 when the table top 1 is in a folded state.

[0041] Another point is that the cross-section of the storage basin 2 in this embodiment can be circular, square, rectangular, oval and waist-shaped. The specific shape of the storage basin 2 is not limited here. Correspondingly, the cross-section of the through hole 1a can also be circular, square, rectangular, oval and waist-shaped. At the same time, the through hole 1a can also be arranged along the length or width direction of the table top 1 to adapt to people with different usage habits.

[0042] It is necessary to explain additionally here that in this embodiment, by providing a through hole 1a that runs through the table top 1 from top to bottom, and providing a storage basin 2 with an opening facing upward and aligned with the through hole on the table top 1, the side walls of the storage basin 2 can be flipped and extended up and down, so that the storage basin 2 can form an expanded storage state or a folded state, and the storage basin 2 here can be accommodated in the through hole 1a in the folded state without affecting the normal use or normal folding of the table top 1, which solves the disadvantage of the outdoor folding table in the prior art that it does not have a storage function, so that people can directly place ice cubes for refrigerating various beverages or fruits through the through hole 1a provided on the table top 1, and can also place other necessary items and food in the storage basin 2, thereby improving people's outdoor life quality and increasing people's convenience and experience in using the folding table.
