Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0381833A2] The invention relates to an extensible table comprising a table plate comprising at least two table plate portions, and a foot construction supporting the table plate, at least one slide bar unit being arranged under the table plate in its immediate vicinity. The slide bar unit comprises at least two interconnected slide bars (9) longitudinally displaceable with respect to each other so as to draw the table plate portions (2, 3) apart from each other for inserting an additional table plate portion between them. In order that the table could be extended by means of small slide bars in such a manner that it remains in a straight, horizontal position when extended, each slide bar (9) in the slide bar unit comprises a longitudinal groove (16) in which a guide piece (19) is fastened close to one end of the slide bar, the guide piece being arranged eccentrically in the groove so that its edge (20) facing away from the table plate and entering the groove of the adjacent slide bar is at a greater distance from the centre line of the groove (16) than its opposite edge (21), similarly entering the groove of the adjacent slide bar.
