When the legs are swung down to their upright positions, the crossbars 46 can be slid down to help support and provide rigidity to the legs.
- Legs 38, 39, on one side of sink portion 2 are preferably connected at the top by lateral member 58, and legs 40, 41 , on the other side of sink portion 2, are likewise connected at the top by another lateral member 58 on the other side.
- Hinges 42 operate with friction to allow lateral members 58 to pivot, and therefore, legs 38, 39, 40, 41 to be swung up and down.
