[0022] The present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments: Figure 1-8 As shown, the figure is marked as follows: table 01, table top 1a, longitudinal side 1b, transverse side 1c, embedded groove 1d, straight support plate 1e, threaded bolt 1f, raised plate 1g, square plane 1h, leak hole 1i, long concave surface 1m, scale mark 1n, raised plane 1o, embedded block 02, long groove 2a, rotating shaft rod 03, supporting leg 04, pin hole 4a, first guard plate 05, second guard plate 06, pin shaft 07, side plate 08, pin 09, cover 10, leg pad 11, spur rack 12, spur gear 13, anti-fall plate 14, locking rod 15, notch 15a, rod sleeve 16, latch lock 17, handle 18.
[0023] A folding tool table comprises a table 01 consisting of a tabletop 1a, longitudinal sides 1b, and transverse sides 1c. Two grooves 1d are provided at the ends of the two transverse sides, each of which contains an insert 02. The insert is installed by vertical insertion and is designed with side ears and buckle joints. A long groove 2a is provided on the inner side of the insert. A rotating shaft 03 is provided between the two opposing long grooves. Two supporting legs 04 are provided on the rotating shaft. The two supporting legs on one rotating shaft are connected by a first guard plate 05. The other rotating shaft The two supporting legs are connected by a second guard plate 06, and the length of the first guard plate is greater than that of the second guard plate; two pins 07 are respectively provided at the ends of the two longitudinal sides, and a side plate 08 is provided on the pins, and the other end of the side plate is fixed to the supporting leg with a pin 09. The supporting leg is made of square tube, and the side plate is a sheet metal part, which is arranged on the outside of the square tube; when folded, the two groups of supporting legs are flipped inward, and the two rotating shaft rods move outward along the long groove. After the group of supporting legs arranged on the second guard plate is laid flat, it is just stuck between the group of supporting legs of the first guard plate.
[0024] A sheath 10 is provided between the supporting leg and the rotating shaft rod to reduce noise and prevent the feeling of weightlessness caused by folding. A leg pad 11 is provided at the bottom end of the supporting leg. The leg pad is provided with straight teeth. After folding, the straight teeth contact the sheath to prevent looseness.
[0025] A spur rack 12 is provided on the shaft rod, and a spur gear 13 is provided at the center of the inner side surface of the desktop. The two oppositely arranged spur racks mesh with the spur gears, so that the support legs can be gradually folded and laid flat to prevent the feeling of weightlessness when folding.
[0026] The inner surface of the desktop is provided with two straight supporting plates 1e to constrain the straight rack from moving outward, and a threaded bolt 1f, on which the spur gear is provided. The end of the threaded bolt is provided with an anti-fall plate 14 to prevent the straight rack from falling downward.
[0027] A locking rod 15 is provided on the rotating shaft rod, and a downward notch 15a is provided at the front end of the locking rod. After unfolding, the notch is buckled on another rotating shaft rod due to gravity. When folding, the tool table needs to be turned over and laid flat first. Under the action of gravity, the notch is separated from the rotating shaft rod, which conforms to usage habits.
[0028] The pivot rod is arranged between the supporting leg and the horizontal side, and a rod sleeve 16 is provided at the end thereof; two raised plates 1g are provided on the inner surface of the table top, which play the role of restraining the locking rod.
[0029] A pair of latch locks 17 are provided on the first guard plate, with the latches of the latch locks facing outwards; a pin hole 4a is provided on the inner side of the support leg mounted on the second guard plate, and the latch is inserted into the pin hole to fix the support leg.
[0030] A square plane 1h is provided in the center of the top of the table, and six leak holes 1i are distributed around the square plane, which can be used to drop sawdust, etc., to keep the table clean. A long concave surface 1m is provided on each side, which can be used to place small hand tools such as screwdrivers. One of the long concave surfaces has a raised plane 1o in the middle, forming two concave areas for placing small items such as nails. A scale mark 1n is provided between the long concave surface and the nearest leak hole to facilitate workpiece processing operations; a handle 18 is provided on the outer surface of one of the horizontal sides, which can be folded for easy access.
[0031] Simple structural changes based on this design concept are all within the scope of protection of this application.
