摘要： An end cap for a structure such as a table leg is disclosed. The end cap may include a retention assembly with an elongated body and a head. The elongated body may be disposed inside an opening in the table leg and the head may be disposed outside the opening in the table leg. The end cap may also include an annular member and at least a portion of the table leg may be disposed inside the annular member. The annular member may also include a lip and the lip is preferably disposed between an end of the table leg and the head of the retention assembly to limit axial movement of the annular member relative to the table leg. Advantageously, because the annular portion of the end cap may rotate relative to the table leg, it may allow the table to be easily moved.

摘要： A slotted brace may be used, for example, to connect a table leg to a table and the slotted brace may allow the table leg to be moved between a collapsed position and an extended position relative to the table. The slotted brace may include a body with an elongated slot and a guide at least partially disposed within the elongated slot. The slotted brace may also include a first position in which the table leg is retained in a generally fixed position relative to the table top and a second position in which the table leg is movable relative to the table. A cover may be connected to the slotted brace and the cover may include an indicator that is sized and configured to indicate to a user that a force should be applied to the indicated portion to allow the slotted brace to be released from the first position and into the second position to allow the table leg to be moved relative to the table. The cover may also include a second indicator that may indicate, for example, a pivotal connection of the slotted brace to the table or table leg.

摘要： A structure such as a table-tennis top or a table top may include a first portion and a second portion. The first portion may be constructed from blow-molded plastic and include a hollow interior portion that is formed during the blow-molding process. The first portion may also have a first set of characteristics such as lightweight. The second portion may be attached to the first portion and the second portion preferably has a second set of characteristics that are different than the first set of characteristics of the first portion. For example, the second portion may have increased mass relative to the first portion. The different characteristics may allow a structure such as a table-tennis top or table top to be constructed with desired characteristics.

摘要： A table may include a table top that is constructed from blow-molded plastic and the table top may include a generally downwardly extending lip. The lip may include reinforcement portions that are sized and configured to increase the strength, rigidity, resilience and/or flexibility of the lip and/or the table top. The table top may include one or more depressions and the depressions may have different characteristics in different directions. For example, the depressions may have an elongated length and the depressions may have increased strength along its length. Advantageously, the different characteristics of the depressions and/or reinforcement portions may be used to create a table top with increased and/or uniform strength, rigidity, resilience and/or flexibility.

摘要： Blow molded plastic structures are provided for use in various structures such as, but not limited to, tables, chairs, walls, backboards, storage bins, sports equipment and the like. The blow molded plastic structure has a first surface and a second surface extending between a first end and a second end and forming a chamber there between. A plurality of depressions is formed on the second surface and extends into the chamber. The depressions are usually unitary structures formed by a depression wall. Generally, the steeper the depression wall, the more strength is provided to the structure. In addition, where the plurality of depressions has a low profile and a greater density, increased strength is provided to the structure. The depressions may or may not be joined to the first surface.

摘要： A foldable table includes a table top having collapsible legs connected thereto. The table top includes a first table top section and a second table top section. A first hinge assembly hingedly connecting the first table top section to the second table top section such that the table top can selectively move between a folded position and an unfolded position. A latch engages with the first hinge assembly so as to releasably lock the first hinge assembly when the table top is in the unfolded position. In alternative embodiments, portions of the table top sections can interlock when the table is in the unfolded position. A handle can project from between the table top sections when the table is in the folded position.

摘要： A fence may include one or more sections that are connected to supports, such as fence posts, by attachment members. The attachment members preferably allow the fence sections to be disposed at various angles, elevations and distances from the supports. Advantageously, this may allow the fence to be disposed in a wide variety of configurations and arrangements. This may also allow the fence to be used in a number of different environments, such as on sloped and uneven surfaces. In addition, the fence may be relatively quickly and easily installed because of the readily adjustable connections of the fence sections and supports. The fence may further include other components such as covers, caps, gates and locking assemblies, if desired.

摘要： A fence may include a support member that is sized and configured to support a portion of the fence. The support member may also facilitate attachment of the fence to a fence post. For example, a clip may be used to connect the support member to the fence post. The clip may include an opening with a generally teardrop-shaped configuration and the end of the support member may be disposed within the opening. In particular, the opening in the clip may include a first section that is larger than an end of the support member to allow the support member to freely move relative to the clip, and a second section that is generally equal to or smaller than a portion of the support member to secure the support member and clip in a generally fixed position. This may allow the clip to be attached to the support member by a snap, friction or interference fit.
