[0039] According to the concept of the technical solution of the utility model, the following embodiments are provided:

[0040] Examples, such as Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a table with a foldable tabletop, which includes a first tabletop 100 , a second tabletop 200 , an axially rotating connection device 300 , a tabletop support frame 400 , a sliding limit block 110 and a bar hole 410 .

[0041] The first desktop 100 and the second desktop 200 are connected at the edge through the pivoting connection device 300, a portion of the sliding limit block 110 is embedded in the bottom of the first desktop 100, and strip holes 410 are provided on the upper and lower surfaces of the top beam of the desktop support frame 400. The sliding limit block 110 passes through the two strip holes 410 so that it can slide in the strip holes 410.

[0042] When unfolding, first move the first desktop 100, hold the first desktop 100 and slide it outward, so that the sliding limit block 110 moves to the bottom in the strip hole 410, as shown in FIG. Figure 1 As shown, the second desktop 200 can be opened at this time. The second desktop 200 is held by hand and rotated 180° around the axially rotating connecting device 300 as the axis, and then placed on the top of the desktop support frame 400. Since the sliding limit block 110 is directly inserted into the top crossbeam of the desktop support frame 400 and does not occupy additional space, the first desktop 100 and the desktop support frame 400 can be in a tightly fitted state. Similarly, the opened second desktop 200 is also tightly fitted with the desktop support frame 400 at this time. At this time, the entire desktop is horizontal, and the desktop after opening is as shown in FIG. Figure 2 As shown, this ensures the normal use of the table, and the unfolded table can be used by multiple people for dinner or meetings.

[0043] like Figure 3 In the folded state shown, the second tabletop 200 is lifted up and rotated around the pivoting connection device 300 and placed on the first tabletop 100, and then the entire overlapping tabletop is slid toward the top center of the bracket, and the sliding stopper 110 is moved to the bottom of the other end along the strip hole 410 to save space. The folded table can be used for dining, reading or studying for one or two people.

[0044] like Figure 4 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, the sliding limit block 110 is composed of a limit screw 111 and a rubber ring 112 tightly sleeved on the limit screw 111. The sliding limit block 110 passes through the strip hole 410 so that it can slide in the strip hole 410, and the rubber ring 112 can stabilize the limit screw 111 so that it does not shake in the strip hole 410.

[0045] Furthermore, the diameter of the rubber ring 112 is greater than the width of the strip hole 410. Since the diameter of the rubber ring 112 is greater than the width of the strip hole 410, the first desktop 100 can still be fixed on the desktop support frame 400 after sliding and will not fall due to the change of the center of gravity.

[0046] In a preferred embodiment, a latch is provided on the desktop support frame 400, and four limiting holes 120 are provided on the first desktop 100. When folding and unfolding are completed, the latch can be inserted into the limiting holes 120, so that the desktop remains stable and does not move.

[0047] Furthermore, the limiting hole 120 can be set to pass through or not pass through the first desktop 100 according to needs. It can be not passed through when the desktop is thicker, and can be passed through when the desktop is thinner to ensure that the hole will not break and affect use.

[0048] like Figure 5 As shown, further, the pin on the desktop support frame 400 is a spring-loaded pin 420, which is composed of an elastic component 421 and an insertion rod 422 running through the elastic component 421. The insertion rod 422 can be inserted into the limiting hole 120 after being popped out by the elastic component 421.

[0049] like Figure 6 As shown, the distribution of the snap latch 420, the sliding limit block 110, the limit hole 120 and the strip hole 410 can be seen.

[0050] In a preferred embodiment, the desktop support frame 400 can be made of one of aluminum alloy, stainless steel, carbon steel, and iron as needed, and can be made into a four-sided or three-sided structure to form the desktop support frame 400. During assembly, bolts or screws can be used to reinforce the connection as needed.

[0051] like Figure 7 The hinge example shown, in a preferred embodiment, the pivoting connection device 300 is preferably a hinge or hinge, which can rotate ≥180° to ensure that the second desktop can be fully opened.

[0052] In a preferred embodiment, the bottom of the desktop support frame 400 is also provided with the support frame protection pad 430, which can protect the desktop support frame 400 and the floor of the use place when the entire table is moved or placed in daily life, especially when the floor material is wooden floor or ceramic tile.

[0053] Furthermore, the support frame protection pad 430 is made of one of rubber, polyurethane, felt, silicone, and plastic.

[0054] The utility model has a simple structure and reasonable design. When a large desktop is not needed, the second desktop 200 can be folded and overlapped with the first desktop 100 to form a small desktop. When a large desktop is needed, the desktop is first slid to a suitable position and then the second desktop 200 is opened and placed on the desktop support frame 400 to form a large desktop. When folded, it saves space and can be used by a single person; when opened, it does not increase the floor space and can be used by multiple people. It is easy to operate and highly practical, which is conducive to wide promotion and application.

[0055] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the utility model, rather than to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, ordinary technicians in this field should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the aforementioned embodiments, or replace some or all of the technical features therein with equivalents. However, these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solution deviate from the scope of the technical solution of the embodiments of the utility model.
