Abstract
A folding work surface for mounting on a wall. The work surface includes a platform hinged to the wall. A pair of upper supports are pivotally connected to the platform and pivotally connected to a lower support. The lower support is then pivotally connected to the wall. A locking ring is positioned on each of the upper supports. A stop bracket is also included and has a base secured to the lower support and has a pair of locking tabs separately extending outwardly which extend along a portion of the upper supports. When the platform is in an opened position, the upper supports and the lower supports aligned to permit the locking rings to slide over the locking tabs securing the locking tabs against the upper supports and thereby locking the platform in the opened position.
