Abstract

The present disclosure provides a table tennis table. Compared with the existing design, according to the present disclosure, a whole table tennis table is divided into two table tennis table boards, and each table tennis table board can be folded into two plates. On one hand, the table board can be folded, which is convenient to transport. On the other hand, because of the setting of first articulation pieces, second articulation pieces, third articulation pieces, and fourth articulation pieces, the table board can be supported directly by folding and connection relationship without special installation of the supporting feet and the fixing feet. For each table tennis table board, a consumer only needs to rotate two fixing screws to use the table tennis table, which is more convenient and simpler than the traditional way to install the table legs.

two symmetrically-arranged fixing feet, the two symmetrically-arranged fixing feet attached to each other by a third articulation piece;

two symmetrically-arranged supporting feet, each of the two symmetrically-arranged supporting feet respectfully attached to one of the two symmetrically-arranged folding plates by a fourth articulation piece and to one of the two symmetrically-arranged fixing feet;

wherein the two symmetrically-arranged fixing feet are configured to fix the supporting feet;

wherein the first articulation piece is configured to permit the two symmetrically-arranged folding plates to fold with respect to one another;

wherein each one of the second articulation pieces is respectively arranged on another side of one of the two symmetrically-arranged folding plates opposite the side;

wherein ach of the fourth articulation pieces is respectively arranged on a top edge of one of the two symmetrically-arranged folding plates; and

wherein the third articulation piece is configured to permit the first fixing foot of the first one of the two symmetrically-arranged fixing feet to selectively fold with respect to the first fixing foot of the second one of the two symmetrically-arranged fixing feet; and

wherein the another third articulation piece is configured to permit the second fixing foot of the first one of the two symmetrically-arranged fixing feet to selectively fold with respect to the second fixing foot of the second one of the two symmetrically-arranged fixing feet.

4. The table tennis table of claim 3 , wherein the third articulation piece further comprises two joints that are symmetrically arranged to each other and a joint shaft;

wherein the two joints are fixed to the joint shaft; and
