Abstract

Abstract An infant's nursing table includes a stand which can be placed on a bath tub and which carries a table leaf arrangement. The stand has two pairs of legs which extend down on two mutually opposite sides of the table leaf arrangement and which are connected in pairs beneath the table leaf arrangement by means of two cross members. The cross members are intended to rest against two opposite bath edges and can be adjusted with respect to their lengths. The downwardly extending stand legs can be connected to respective cross members at different locations along their lengths. The legs are clamped firmly against respective cross members. Each leg is provided with a multiple of indents which are spaced along the length of the leg and which are configured to receive partially a cross member pressed laterally against said leg.
