Abstract

A multi-purpose table for furnishing is anticipated, comprising: a top ( 2 ) with a thickness and perimeter edges ( 2 a ) delimiting a support surface ( 3 ) of the top ( 2 ), supports ( 4 ) on the underside of the top ( 2 ), a clearance aperture ( 5 ) passing through the top ( 2 ) and developing in such a way as to interrupt both the support surface ( 3 ) and perimeter edges ( 2 a ), a mobile element ( 6 ) counter-profiled to the clearance aperture ( 5 ) and aimed at re-forming the support surface ( 3 ) and perimeter edges ( 2 a ), and fixing means ( 7 ) between the top ( 2 ) and mobile element ( 6 ) to constrain the mobile element ( 6 ) in a removable way in the clearance aperture ( 5 ).

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . Multi-purpose table for furnishing, comprising: a top with a thickness and perimeter edges, said perimeter edges delimiting a support surface of said top, means of support on the underside of said top, at least one clearance aperture passing through said top and developing in such a way as to interrupt both said support surface and said perimeter edges, at least one mobile element substantially counter-profiled to said clearance aperture and aimed at substantially re-forming said support surface and said perimeter edges, and fixing means between said top and said mobile element aimed at constraining said mobile element in a removable way in said clearance apertura.  
   
   
       2 . Table as in  claim 1 , comprising coupling means aimed at holding said mobile element in place when it is not inserted in said clearance aperture.  
   
   
       3 . Table as in  claim 2 , wherein said coupling means are placed in correspondence with a thinned portion of said top, on the side opposite said support surface.  
   
   
       4 . Table as in  claim 1 , wherein said clearance aperture presents internal flanks developing transversally to said perimeter edges, wherein said mobile element presents external sides interconnectable with said internal flanks, and wherein said fixing means are composed of a profile of said internal flanks complementary to that of said external sides.  
   
   
       5 . Table as in  claim 4 , wherein said internal flanks and said external sides present profiles substantially rounded and counter-profiled to one another.  
   
   
       6 . Table as in  claim 4 , wherein said internal flanks and external sides present profiles substantially stepped and counter-profiled to one another.  
   
   
       7 . Table as in  claim 6 , wherein said internal flanks have a stepped profile presenting alternate protruding and receding portions, to impede the displacement of said mobile element perpendicular to said support surface.  
   
   
       8 . Table as in  claim 4 , wherein said internal flanks and external sides present grooves substantially of a slot type and counter-profiled to one another.  
   
   
       9 . Table as in  claim 1 , wherein said mobile element includes distinctive elements aimed at differentiating said mobile element with respect to said top.  
   
   
       10 . Table as in  claim 9 , wherein said distinctive elements are graphic elements.  
   
   
       11 . Table as in  claim 1 , wherein said mobile element presents two opposite main faces alternatively aimed at substantially re-forming said support surface, and wherein each of said main faces includes distinctive elements aimed at differentiating the same from said support surface.  
   
   
       12 . Table as in  claim 11 , wherein said main faces of said mobile element present distinctive elements differentiated from one another.  
   
   
       13 . Table as in  claim 1 , wherein said coupling means include at least one post fixed to said top, and wherein said clearance aperture is sized so as to permit the insertion of said post into it.  
   
   
       14 . Table as in  claim 13 , wherein said mobile element presents a recess defining a cavity in said top aimed at surrounding said post when said mobile element is inserted in said clearance aperture.  
   
   
       15 . Top for table for furnishing, said top comprising: a thickness, perimeter edges delimiting a support surface, at least one clearance aperture passing through said top and developing in such a way as to interrupt both said support surface and said perimeter edges, at least one mobile element substantially counter-profiled to said clearance aperture and aimed at substantially re-forming said support surface and said perimeter edges, fixing means between said top and said mobile element aimed at constraining said mobile element in a removable way in said clearance aperture, and coupling means aimed at holding said mobile element in place when it is not inserted in said clearance aperture.  
   
   
       16 . Top for table for furnishing as in  claim 15 , wherein said coupling means are placed on the side opposite said support surface, in correspondence with a thinned portion of said top.  
   
   
       17 . Top for table for furnishing as in  claim 15 , wherein the same is realized in a different material to that of said mobile element.  
   
   
       18 . Mobile element for table for furnishing, said table comprising a top with a thickness, perimeter edges delimiting a support surface and at least one clearance aperture passing through said top and developing in such a way as to interrupt both said support surface and said perimeter edges, said mobile element being substantially counter-profiled to said clearance aperture in a way aimed at substantially re-forming said support surface and said perimeter edges, and presenting distinctive elements aimed at differentiating the same with respect to said top.  
   
   
       19 . Mobile element as in  claim 18 , comprising two opposite main faces both alternatively aimed at substantially re-forming said support surface, and wherein each of said main faces includes distinctive elements aimed at differentiating the same from said support surface.  
   
   
       20 . Mobile element as in  claim 19 , wherein each of said main faces presents distinctive elements differentiated from those of said other main face.
