Abstract
The invention concerns a table-tennis table that includes two playing surfaces and a support structure for these two playing surfaces, where this support structure includes a structure for folding the two playing surfaces between a playing position, in which the playing surfaces are horizontal and aligned, and a storage position in which they are vertical and adjacent to each other. On either side of the two playing surfaces, the support structure includes at least one vertical upright. For each vertical upright, the folding structure includes a guidance element which is designed to slide along the vertical upright, which is connected so as to pivot on at least one playing surface, and which is fitted with a locating system used to lock the said guidance element at either of two heights on the vertical upright, one corresponding to the playing position, and the other to the storage position, and an operating handle for the location system which is designed to unlock the guidance element for passage from one position to the other.
