Embodiment Construction

[0029]A preferred embodiment of a nesting task table 100 according to the invention is generally shown in the drawing figures and discussed below. Generally, the nesting task table 100 has a base 110, a pedestal 120, and a table top 130. As shown, the nesting task table 100 has a generally C-shaped configuration with the table top 130 and the base 110 being two legs extending in the same general direction from opposite ends of a bight portion that is provided by the pedestal 120.

[0030]A cooperating case good 200 may be of any desired configuration or design as is generally shown in the drawing figures and is generally distinguished from other case goods by having a table nest 230, a base nest 210, and a pedestal nest 220. Taken together, the table nest 230, base nest 210, and pedestal nest 220 define a task table nest that corresponds to the nesting task table 100. Thus, the nesting task table 100 most desirably nests in the task table nest of the furniture case good 200 and is camo...

Abstract

A task table (100) nests inconspicuously with a furniture case good (200). The table (100) has a base (110), a pedestal (120), and a table top (130). The pedestal (120) supports the table top (130) above the base (110). The case good (200) has a front (250), an opposite back, a left side (252), an opposite right side, and a top (214). The sides (252) extend generally upward from a supporting surface (254) and support the top (214) above the surface (254). A table nest (230) is defined between the surface (254) and the top (214), extends between the sides (252), and removably receives the table top (130) in sliding engagement. A base nest (210) is defined between the sides (252), extends generally upward from the surface (254), and removably receives the base (110) in sliding engagement. A pedestal nest (220) extends from the base nest (210) to the table nest (230) and removably receives the pedestal (120). The table (230), base (210), and pedestal nests (220) define a task table nest that corresponds to the task table (100).
