Table with edge support structures

US-7814844-B2

Abstract

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.
