Abstract A table surface member is movable between a vertical storage position against a wall and a usable position horizon- tally extending from the wall. The table member connects to the wall by means of a hinge assembly which permits folding of the table with the underside of the table folding against the wall in the storage position. The preferred hinge assembly includes upper and lower hinge arms pivotally connecting the wall and the table. The pivotal connection of the lower arm to the table is offset below a plane passing through the pivot axis of the upper arms to the table and parallel with the table surface. This offset plus intentional length mismatching of the hinge arms pro- vides an overcenter resistance force which holds the table in its storage position without the need for a separate latch or counter- balance. In a preferred embodiment latch means are provided for latching the edge of the table to the wall or wall mounting brack- et in the usable position, so that no supporting legs for the outer end of the table are required.
