A portable cooler and table assembly that may be easily transported in a
single, self-contained unit is disclosed. The assembly may be converted
for use as a table for a variety of recreational activities, e.g.,
dining, drinking, games such as ping pong, beer pong, table hockey, card
games, board games, preparation for sporting events and meals. The table
and cooler may be permanently attached to each other, or alternatively,
the cooler may be detachable from the table. The table may fold or
collapse to assist in converting the assembly from a compact, lightweight
transportable unit into a fully extended and operable table and cooler.
The table surface may contain surface features such as grooves,
indentations, nets, game pieces, etc. The cooler may comprise any
container that is capable of containing ice or some other refrigeration
or heating system, e.g., a conventional 54 quart beverage cooler.
Alternatively, the cooler may be replaced with a storage container or
other storage device. The assembly may also contain various wheels, legs
and handles to assist in mobility and conversion.
