Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a bench designed for work on ground level low surfaces.
  • the present invention provides a bench type for many kinds of work having remarkable advantages and innovations with respect to the benches which are presently on the market.
  • Benches for performing work at ground level are already presently known, but they only consist of elemental basic parts.
  • the bench of this invention solves the problem of the prior art and is constituted by a main frame provided with a suitable zone for sitting down and another for holding up the knees and by providing means for fastening the conjunct to the user's feet and legs, so that the user can even move carrying along said bench, meaning this is a clear additional advantage with respect to the independent elements of seat and base.
  • the bench, subject of the invention is variable in length by means of optional extendible assembly points so that it can be adjusted to the user's length.
  • the bench disclosed is advantageously characterised in such a manner that when a work, which is extremely troublesome and corporally painful, is performed at ground level, such a bench allows to do this work most comfortably and it allows consequently to avoid tiredness, troubles and corporal pain.
  • Figures 1, 2 and 3 are respectively a side elevation view, a front elevation view and a top plan view of a bench according to the invention.
  • Figure 4 pertains to a detailed view of the bench and its assembly.
  • Figure 5 shows a detailed view of the tilting support designed to protect the knees.
  • Figure 6 is a side elevation view showing the bench assembly fixed to the user's legs.
  • Figure 7 is a side elevation view showing the bench assembly in a work position and during physical strain.
  • a bench comprising a main frame 1 suitably and comfortably adapted to the user's feet and legs.
  • This bench is preferably provided with extendible assembly points 10 so that its height can be adapted to the user's length.
  • the frame 1 consists mainly of two parallel, substantially J-shaped profiles.
  • a tilting support 2 protecting the knees and a seat 3 have been arranged on the frame as clearly shown in figures 6 and 7. Both the support 2 for the knees and the seat 3 are covered by a foam material.
  • the foam material on the knee support 2 is especially important for protecting the knees. Instead of a foam material, use can also be made of other appropriate resilient materials.
  • the knee support 2 is connected to the frame 1 by means of a hinge shaft 5.
  • Belts 13 attached to the user's body have also been provided to avoid any possible corporal damages, since on performing work at ground level, the user's trunk undergoes the consequences of the effort. With these belts 13, the knee protector 2 and the seat 3, said corporal damages are substantially avoided and a highly comfortable position is thereby achieved on performing such work.
  • the frame 1 is provided with stops 7.
  • the bench can be assembled and disassembled by means of the shaft 4 and the bolts 11 designed to clamp the seat 3 so that a volume reduction may be achieved for packaging and transport.
  • the bench When the user stands up, as shown in figure 6, the bench can comfortably be moved from one location to another, since the bench construction is based on light weight materials and can be displaced easily.
