Abstract

The electric collapsible massage table consists of two folding table pieces hingably connected to each other, a two leg systems designed with the electrical and mechanical technology that allows the table to move up and down simultaneously and a structural collapsible cable system to support and strength once the table is set up and loaded.

Claims

1. Electric portable collapsible table

2. The frame of the table of claim 1, is supported by two electrically motorized acme leg system one on each opposing end. The two legs system is connected by two cables, from the upper end of one central frame of the leg system to the lower end of the opposite central frame system making an x-shape wire structure plus two triangular wire structures on each end in order to stabilized the legs systems in a vertical direction toward the ground when the table is set up. This system allows the table of claim 1 to be adjusted up and down simultaneously.

3. The table of claim 1, has on each opposite end an electric motor with an acme screw, vertically mounted on the lower triangular frame leg that support the table, linked to the folding triangular stabilizer structure at the middle of the horizontal bar, and guided by the vertical track and activated by the traveler triangle structure making it possible the system leg to extend and retract electrically.

4. The table of claim 3, has a flexible cable fixed from one corner end of the table to the opposite corner end so when the table is set up it secures on the hook at the center of the traveler triangular structure which is attached to the electrically motorized acme screw.

5. The table of claim 2, wherein is linked by two flexible cables, one connected from the upper central frame of the leg system to the lower end of the opposite central frame of the leg system and the other one vice versa forming and x-shape complementing the table of claim 3 to maintain the strength of the table when it is set up

6. The table of claim 1, wherein the central trapeze-shaped truss member is positioned in one of the table pieces at the hinges end via folding links that folds-in and folds-out all the way from the table piece, comprising the two table pieces to be co-linear, reaching the maximum strength when the table is totally set up.

7. The table of claim 6 has a central trapeze-shaped truss member wherein the cable portion for each corner region of the table is connected thru it, to keep the two frame-table co-linear.

8. The table of claim 1 wherein triangular traveler structure.

9. The table of claim 1 wherein stabilizer structure.

10. The table of claim 1 wherein leg support structure.

11. The table of claim 1 wherein flexible cable frame.

12. The table of claim 1 wherein pivoting hinges.
