This invention is a device for changing the height of a table. Tables are typically of a fixed standard height, and usually intended for use by one in a sitting position. It is often desirable to have a table at a level other than the standard height. A workbench, work table, or laundry table, for example, is more suited to its purpose if it is, say, 36″ or 40″ high.
Adjustable tables with telescoping legs are known in the prior art. Telescoping legs include an outer tube with radial holes spaced along its length, and an inner tube which includes an attached push button snap device. Length adjustment is made by depressing the button and sliding the outer tube over the inner tube until the button pops up into the next hole in the outer tube. Movement of the inner tube from hole to hole in the outer tube is often difficult because the inner snap device is invisible. Alignment of the snap device with the desired hole in the outer tube is “hit or miss”. A guided, channeled adjustment apparatus according to this invention assures simple and easy length adjustment of our table legs.
