Abstract A center table, centrally hinged and having an upstanding flanged rim on the sides is provided. The center table is foldable upon itself for storing. A pair of side tables, having upstanding flanged rims on 3 sides adapted to be slidably fitted in the opposite ends of the coextensive center table is provided to provide a telescoping vehicle table to fit vehicles of varying internal width. Four double hooks are mounted to the outside end corners of the side tables. Four hooks and chains are provided, with the chains connected on the double hooks by hooking a selected link of the chains on the double hooks and with the hooks of the hooks and chains hooked in the sills of the opposite vehicle windows so that the vehicle table is adjustably and reversably suspended in space at the desired position in space in the vehicle. Four pairs of guides are mounted to the sides of the center table and a pair of locking slides are slid in the guides to prevent the center table from folding when suspended in the vehicle in the flat, hinge side up position.
A foldable, adjustable, telescoping and reversible vehicle table for the inside of a vehicle which comprises: a. a centrally hinged center table foldable on itself and having an upstanding, flanged rim on the center table sides: b. a means for preventing the vehicle table from folding upon itself when in the hinge side up position mounted to the center table sides: c. a pair of side tables having upstanding, flanged rims on three sides and adapted to be slidably fitted in the opposite ends of the center table to provide a telescoping table for fitting vehicles of varying internal width; d. a plurality of means for connecting mounted to the rims of the pair of side tables; e. a plurality of hooks and chains, the chains connected to the connecting means by hooking a selected link of the chain on the connecting means and with the hooks hooked in the sills of the opposite vehicle windows so that the vehicle table is adjustably and reversibly suspended in space at the desired position in the vehicle, and whereby the reversibility and suspension of the vehicle table is accomplished by the same means and whereby the table is reversible from a flat side up to a rimmed side up whereby objects are prevented from sliding off the table in the latter position.
