Abstract

An improved structure assembly-type table leg that in addition to facilitating shipping, affords exceptional sturdiness and greater attractiveness when assembled. To provide for freight forwarding convenience, a slot is articulated in a predetermined area along the end sections of frame members, a quantity of holes are arrayed in the same end sections, and an opening is formed in each of the two adjacent sides at the top end of the table leg members. The span of the opening is directly proportional to the width of the frame member, enabling the insertion of the frame member and the mortising of the slot within the opening such that the top ends of the frame members and the table leg members are even with each other when they are assembled. The fastening screws utilized to assemble the invention herein are not visible, effectively enhancing exterior appearance, while supporting assembly and disassembly to conserve space and facilitate shipping.
