CLAIMS
1. Mesalustre"utily model"comprises a remote controller (2) that gave elettric energy (1) to an engine (3) that move a steel cable (11) (or a chain) with a speed limiter (4), all fixed bye support rod (9) on the ceiling, for safety reasons. By a sheath (6) the steel cable is bundled up to the reel (5) through a micro switch (7) that control a sensor (8) the table move up and down to the appropriate height. The cable can be telescopic (12) or not. Table contain on the top a Lamp that switched on with remote controller or when table climb up and it can be with seat or not. It can be supplied with matching stools (18), which will act as support for the Table when it sits on the floor; or if no stools are required (Draw 3.3) it will come with a base (15) for harnessing it to the floor. The L'n'T can be manufactured in various materials and shapes (for example: glass, acrylic wood, steel, aluminium, resin; round, square, triangular... etc.). The L'n'T system has at least two different and separate types of illumination (10): one type is fixed to the ceiling and the other can be manoeuvred up and down with the table itself.
Description:
LAMP AND TABLE (lamp'n'table) The Lamp'n'Table is a unique accessory for furnishing your home or work- environment with style. According to your needs, it can be a table (with or without stools) and also supply illumination in your favourite room.

It works through a system of speeSucers that guarantee perfect functioning and safety.

The L'n'T can be used in numerous environments: - at home, in offices, restaurants, bars, recreation areas, discos, clubs, casino, ships etc. ; in short, anywhere a table is needed, one that can be hoisted to the ceiling when more space is required, where it can then become a touch of high-tech design lighting.

The L'n'T is attached to a steel cable, incorporating a counterweight and cable take up reel, and can be manouvred up and down by means of an electronic pulley system with its relative remote control device.

It can be fixed to the ceiling with appropriate fixtures, such as iron or steel rods; it can either hang from the ceiling or be screwed flush to it using the counterweight system (in this case the motor panel will be fixed on the wall) which guarantees safe upwards and downwards, double-hung performance of the L'n'T.

The L'n'T can be supplied with matching stools, which will act as support for the L'n'T when it sits on the floor; or if no stools are required it will come with a base for harnessing it to the floor.

The L'n'T can be manufactured in various materials and shapes (for example: glass, acrylic wood, steel, aluminium, resin; round, square, triangular... etc.).

The L'n'T system has at least two different and separate types of illumination: one type is fixed to the ceiling and the other can be manoeuvred up and down with the table itself. The following diagrams and descriptions illustrate this innovative, furnishing accessory: Figure 1 gives a prospective view of the L'n'T in its lamp version; Figure 2 shows a section view of the electronic mechanisms of the table; Figure 3 illustrates the table in the counterweight version.

The patented L'n'T, as shown in the figures, consists in: 1. Electric circuit 2. Remote control device 3. Motor 4. Speed reducers 5. Takeup reel 6. Steel guide for the cable 7. Micro-switch 8. Sensor for regulating the height of the L'n'T 9. Rod supporting the motor 10. Illumination area 11. Steel cable 12. Cable covering 13. Hook 14. Steel disk joint for fixing the table 15.
