“mastermind fold” is an easy-to-use folding table. The folding mechanism located in the centre of the table synchronises the movement of the left and right halves of the tabletop by means of a new type of kinematics. Gas springs assist the folding movement in each phase enabling it to be operated by only one person. A safety circuit requires two-handed release to prevent jamming. The product allows the use of integrated media technology according to international standards.
