[0022] Reference Figures 1-10As shown, the vehicle-mounted folding table of this utility model includes a mounting base 1, support legs 2 hinged to both sides of the mounting base 1, two crossbeams 3 hinged to the upper ends of the support legs 2, and a table 4 mounted on the crossbeams 3. The table 4 includes a first table 6 and a second table 7. The first table 6 is fixed to the crossbeams 3 by screws 5, and the second table 7 is connected to the first table 6 by a buffer hinge 8. The buffer hinge 8 includes two opposing hinge seats 9 and a U-shaped hinge body 11 connected between the hinge seats 9 by a pivot 10. The inner ends of the hinge seats 9 are provided with first arc-shaped contact surfaces 12, and when the hinge seats 9 are unfolded, the first arc-shaped contact surfaces 12 abut against each other. During assembly: one of the hinge seats 9 is connected to the first table 6 by screws 5, and the other hinge seat 9 is connected to the second table 7 by screws 5. When the second tabletop 7 is about to unfold into place, the first arc-shaped contact surfaces 12 of the two hinge seats 9 abut against each other to reduce the rotation speed of the hinge seats 9, thereby achieving the effect of buffering and damping, and thus enabling the unfolding of the tabletop to have a slow-descent and buffering function.

[0023] Preferably, the hinge seat 9 has a first positioning block 13 in the middle, and a rubber damping buffer block 14 is provided inside the first positioning block 13. The tabletop 4 has a positioning groove that adapts to the first positioning block 13 to improve the stability of the hinge seat 9 during installation. The rubber damping buffer block 14 has a second arc-shaped contact surface 15 at its upper inner end, and an L-shaped positioning groove 16 at its lower inner end. The U-shaped hinge body 11 has a third arc-shaped contact surface 17 that mates with the second arc-shaped contact surface 15 and a second positioning block 18 that mates with the L-shaped positioning groove 16 at both ends. When the second tabletop 7 is almost fully extended, the third arc-shaped contact surface 17 of the U-shaped hinge body 11 first abuts against the second arc-shaped contact surface 15 of the rubber damping buffer block 14 to reduce the rotation speed of the hinge seat 9; when the second tabletop 7 is fully extended, the second positioning block 18 of the U-shaped hinge body 11 is embedded in the L-shaped positioning groove 16 of the rubber damping buffer block 14, thereby playing a damping and buffering role, so that the extension of the tabletop has a slow-descent and buffering function.

[0024] Preferably, the hinge seat 9 is provided with a positioning key 19 corresponding to the first positioning block 13. The tabletop is provided with a keyway adapted to the positioning key 19 to further improve the stability of the hinge seat 9 during installation.

[0025] Preferably, the end of the U-shaped hinge body 11 contacts the hinge seat 9 via a protruding rib 20. This reduces the contact area between the U-shaped hinge body 11 and the hinge seat 9, thereby reducing rotational resistance.

[0026] Preferably, the end face of the tabletop 4 is provided with an anti-slip layer 21 to improve the anti-slip effect. A handle 22 is provided on the crossbeam 3. To unfold the crossbeam 3, simply pull up the handle 22 for easy operation.

[0027] As stated above, this is not intended to limit the present invention in any way. Although the present invention has been disclosed above with preferred embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present invention. Any person skilled in the art can make some modifications or alterations to the above-disclosed structure and technical content to create equivalent embodiments without departing from the scope of the present invention. However, any simple modifications, equivalent changes and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention without departing from the scope of the present invention shall still fall within the scope of the present invention.
