Claim 2

A foldable and removable table for use with vehicles of the type having a hinged panel permitting entry into the vehicle, said table comprising: a cornered table member having a flat supporting surface; a pair of hooks, each hook adapted to removably engage said vehicle panel in a corresponding hole therein, each hook being coupled with said table member at spaced corners thereof; means, including one of said hooks, for permitting rotation of said table about one of said corners; a leg foldably fastened to said table member on a side opposite said supporting surface and foldable to a storage position flush with said side; fastening means for holding said table member in a storage position parallel with said vehicle panel and with said opposite side adjacent said panel; wherein rotation of said table member about said one corner and one of said hooks permits said table to be moved from a storage position flush with said panel to an open position for use as a table; and wherein the other of said hooks is dimensioned so as to engage a third hole in said vehicle panel when said table member is rotated to said open position.

Claim 3

The foldable and removable table as recited in claim 1 wherein said leg is positioned between said opposite side and said panel while in said storage position.

Claim 4

A foldable and removable table as recited in claim 2 wherein each said hook comprises a rod extending away from said table member and curving in a direction substantially parallel to the plane of said supporting surface.

Claim 5

A foldable and removable table for use with vehicles of the type having a hinged panel permitting entry into the vehicle, said table comprising: a support plate; a cornered table member having a flat supporting surface, said table member being rotatably coupled with said support plate at one corner of said table member; a pair of hooks, each hook adapted to removably engage said vehicle panel and a corresponding hole therein, each hook being coupled with said table member at spaced corners thereof; means, including one of said hooks, for permitting rotation of said table about one of said corners; at least one leg foldably fastened to said table member on a side opposite said supporting surface and foldable to a storage position flush with said opposite side; fastening means for holding said table member in a storage position parallel with said vehicle panel, and with said supporting side against said panel; and wherein rotation of said support plate about said hooks permits said table to be moved from a storage position flush with said panel to an open position for use as a table, and wherein said said table may be further rotated about said one corner thereof to a different, open position.

Claim 6

A foldable and removable table for use with vehicles of the type having a hinged panel permitting entry into the vehicle, said table comprising: a support plate; a cornered table member having a flat supporting surface, said table member being rotatably coupled with said support plate at one corner of said table member; a pair of hooks, each hook adapted to removably engage said vehicle panel and a corresponding hole therein, each hook being coupled with said table member at spaced corners thereof; means, including one of said hooks, for permitting rotation of said table about one of said corners; at least one leg foldably fastened to said table member on a side opposite said supporting surface and foldable to a storage position flush with said opposite side; fastening means for holding said table member in a storage position parallel with said vehicle panel, and with said supporting side against said panel; and wherein rotation of said support plate about said hooks permits said table to be moved from a storage position flush with said panel to an open position for use as a table, and wherein said said table may be further rotated about said one corner thereof to a different, open position.

Claim 7

A foldable and removable table as recited in claim 4 further comprising a pivot pin rotatably coupling said table member to said supporting plate.

Claim 8

A foldable and removable table as recited in claim 5 wherein said pivot pin is coupled with said table member at one corner of said support surface.

Claim 9

A foldable and removable table as recited in claim 6 wherein each said hook comprises a rod coupled to said support plate and extending parallel with said support plate and curving in a direction substantially normal to said support plate.

Claim 10

A foldable and removable table for use with vehicles of the type having a hinged panel permitting entry into the vehicle, said table comprising: a cornered table member having a flat supporting surface; a pair of hooks, each hook adapted to removably engage said vehicle panel in a corresponding hole therein, each hook being coupled with said table member at spaced corners thereof; means, including one of said hooks, for permitting rotation of said table about one of said corners; fastening means for holding said table member in a storage position parallel with said vehicle panel and with said opposite side adjacent said panel; wherein rotation of said table member about said one corner and one of said hooks permits said table to be moved from a storage position flush with said panel to an open position for use as a table; and wherein the other of said hooks is dimensioned so as to engage a third hole in said vehicle panel when said table member is rotated to said open position.

Claim 11

A foldable and removable table for use with vehicles of the type having a hinged panel permitting entry into the vehicle, said table comprising: a cornered table member having a flat supporting surface; a pair of hooks, each hook adapted to removably engage said vehicle panel in a corresponding hole therein, each hook being coupled with said table member at spaced corners thereof; means, including one of said hooks, for permitting rotation of said table about one of said corners; fastening means for holding said table member in a storage position parallel with said vehicle panel and with said opposite side adjacent said panel; wherein rotation of said table member about said one corner and one of said hooks permits said table to be moved from a storage position flush with said panel to an open position for use as a table; and wherein the other of said hooks is dimensioned so as to engage a third hole in said vehicle panel when said table member is rotated to said open position.
