Abstract
Abstract A rapidly assemblable table construction in which the top, side and front elements are conveniently integrated from separated condition in the absence of tools, thereby enabling the table to be stored or shipped with the separated elements in superimposed condition. When in assembled condition, locking means associated with a top panel operates to prevent disengagement of plural interconnecting means, and assures rigidity of the composite structure.
