Abstract

A lightweight and portable table that during its use can be set upon a desk or another table, and which has an upwardly extendable top surface with a maximum elevation of approximately one foot. It allows people working in a seated position at their desk to adjust the working top surface thereof to a more comfortable position, and alternatively allow them to comfortably work from the elevated top surface while in a standing position. The portable table is easy to manage, movable from one support surface to another with little effort, spring-assisted with load during up and down deployment, and it promotes improved health and welfare of its users. Applications include, but are not limited to, home use, business use, and use by healthcare workers who need prompt access to instruments and devices while in both sitting and standing positions when caring for different patients during a work day.
