Comentario sobre Keilim 24:6
שָׁלֹשׁ בְּסָסִיּוֹת הֵן. שֶׁלִּפְנֵי הַמִּטָּה וְשֶׁלִּפְנֵי סוֹפְרִים, טְמֵאָה מִדְרָס. וְשֶׁל דְּלֻפְקִי, טְמֵאָה טְמֵא מֵת. וְשֶׁל מִגְדָּל, טְהוֹרָה מִכְּלוּם:
Hay tres tipos de bases [es decir, mesas pequeñas]: la que se usa [como reposapiés] antes de una cama o antes de que los estudiosos sean susceptibles a la impureza midras ; lo que es de una mesa de servir [es decir, anidado debajo de él, para sacar alimentos] es susceptible a la impureza del cadáver; y lo que se usa [como base] de una torre [es decir, un gabinete alto que se parece a una torre] es puro de todos [los tipos de impurezas].

Bartenura on Mishnah Kelim
ושל דלפקי (delphica – a three-legged table used as a waiter or toilet table) – a wooden vessel that one places upon it flasks/bottles with a wide belly and a narrow neck and jugs and food and drinks, and from it, we take and place on the table. But the base that is in front of it is not for sitting, but it has the status of a vessel.

English Explanation of Mishnah Kelim
One for a side-table is susceptible to corpse uncleanness; The base next to a side-table is sometimes stood upon by a servant, therefore it is considered a vessel. But it is not sat upon therefore it is not susceptible to midras.
