Brief Description of the Invention The purpose of the invention is to support tabletops and transfer the load from the floor. In metal support structures used for transportation, the cross-sectional geometry of the frame, the legs 20 Rigidity against bending and swaying is achieved through the combined arrangement of the shape and corner connections. The main advantage is that the legs are easier to assemble and disassemble. The technical problem that the invention aims to solve is the cross-section of the frame and the leg connections. In table carriers unsuitable for load-bearing conditions, the frame tilts downwards under load. Bending, relative rotation at corner joints, and overall wobbling of the table can occur. 25 Another technical problem is the connection parts during the attachment and detachment of the legs. In structures where separate placement or complete removal may be necessary, installation and makes disassembly more difficult. The invention involves creating a metal frame by cutting and bending a single sheet of metal. With integrated cross-sectional sections extending in the directions, the frame under load is shown in Figure 30. Its resistance to change has been increased. The frame is sized to fit the table. This design creates a circumferential support for the top plate and distributes the loads around the corners. The aim is to transfer them to their respective regions. 3 The invention involves angled, bifacial metal legs positioned along two adjacent edges at the corners of a frame. By connecting them, load transfer is carried out through two connection surfaces and the frame This ensures that the relative rotational movements between the foot and the ground are limited. Thus The load-bearing structure is made possible by the way the cross-sectional geometry of the frame works together with the legs and connections. The stability of the structure has been increased. 5 The invention also includes the mounting sockets on the frame and base, and the components that work with them. the legs are fixed in a detachable manner via bolted fasteners This connection system has enabled assembly, disassembly, transportation, storage, and reuse. Installation procedures are made easier. The invention enables the production of tables of different sizes based on the same structural principle and uses chipboard, 10 MDF, wood, glass, marble or granite are some of the different tabletop materials available, depending on the material. This ensures that it can be used with a suitable support and fastening system. The invention includes a curved cross-section of the frame, an angular geometry of the legs, and corner connections. Working together, they ensure that the loads from the top slab and the service loads are transferred to the ground.
