Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a tool stand and, more particularly, to a tool stand for easy storage and display of tools.
  • a conventional tool stand generally includes a cabinet supported on casters so that the tool stand can be moved around on the casters.
  • the cabinet includes several drawers movably supported thereon.
  • the drawers are used to store various tools.
  • the drawers however look like one another, and it is impossible to know what tools are stored in which drawer.
  • the drawers have to be opened one after another so that the tools contained therein can be observed and a needed tool can be taken from the related drawer for use. This is however a waste of time.
  • a conventional tool stand includes lower, upper and middle boxes and two posts.
  • the lower box is located on the ground or a floor.
  • the posts are supported on the lower box.
  • the middle and upper boxes are supported on the posts.
  • Tools are stored in the boxes. The tools are visible since there is an adequate distance between the lower and middle boxes and another adequate distance between the middle and upper boxes.
  • the conventional tool stand is however bulky because of the distances between the boxes.
  • another conventional tool stand includes two boxes 1 and 7, a tray 8 and two columns 5 and 6.
  • the box 1 is supported on two casters 2 and two casters 3.
  • the columns 5 and 6 are supported on the box 1.
  • the box 7 and the tray 8 are movably supported on the columns 5 and 6.
  • Each of the columns 5 and 6 includes apertures defined therein.
  • a locking pin 21 can be inserted in a selected one of the apertures of the column 5 and another locking pin 21 can be inserted in a related one of the apertures of the column 6 to lock the box 7 in a desired elevation.
  • Another locking pin 21 can be inserted in a selected one of the apertures of the column 5 and another locking pin 21 can be inserted in a related one of the apertures of the column 6 to lock the tray 8 in a desired elevation.
  • the locking pins 21 can be removed from the apertures of the columns 5 and 6 to allow the box 7 to rest on the box 1 and the tray 8 to rest on the box 7.
  • Similar conventional tool stands can be found in US Patent Nos. 4466628 and 4913453 and German Patent No. 955219 .
  • the conventional tool stand does not look bulky when the boxes 1 and 7 and the tray 8 are located on one another.
  • the columns 5 and 6 however stick out and look weird.
  • another conventional tool stand includes several boxes and two telescopic posts.
  • the telescopic posts are supported on the lowermost one of the boxes.
  • the other boxes are movably supported on the telescopic posts.
  • Each of the telescopic posts includes several tubes connected to one another and spring-biased detents operable to keep the tubes in desired elevations relative to one another.
  • the effective length of each of the telescopic posts is adjustable.
  • another conventional tool stand includes several boxes and two collapsible posts.
  • Each of the collapsible posts includes an upper rod pivotally connected to a lower rod.
  • the lower rods are supported on the lowermost one of the boxes.
  • the upper rods can be located in an upright position to be in line with the lower rods.
  • the other boxes are movable along and then retained in desired elevations on the collapsible posts.
  • the upper rods can be located in a horizontal position to rest on the uppermost one of the boxes.
  • the present invention is therefore intended to obviate or at least alleviate the problems encountered in prior art.
  • the tool stand includes a cabinet, two posts, at least one tray and at least two collars.
  • the posts are supported on the cabinet.
  • the tray includes a wall extending thereon and two arched slots defined therein.
  • Each of the collars is movably supported on a related one of the posts and formed with a pin inserted in a related one of the arched slots so that the tray can be pivoted between a horizontal position and a tilted position.
  • the tool stand 100 includes a cabinet 10, two posts 20, three trays 30, six collars 40, six buckles 50 and a lid 60.
  • the cabinet 10 is supported on four casters 11 so that the cabinet 10 and therefore the tool stand 100 can smoothly be moved around on the casters 11.
  • the cabinet 10 includes a drawer 12 movably supported thereon.
  • Each of the posts 20 includes a first (or “lower”) tube 21, a second (or “upper”) tube 22, a joint 23 and a ring 24.
  • the first tube 21 includes a slot 25 defined therein and an aperture 28 defined therein.
  • a lower end of the first tube 21 is secured to the cabinet 10.
  • An upper end of the first tube 21 is formed with a reduced diameter as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 .
  • the second tube 22 includes two slots 25 defined therein and two apertures 28 defined therein.
  • a lower end of the second tube 22 is formed with a reduced diameter and pivotally connected to the first tube 21 by a related one of the joints 23 as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 .
  • Each of the rings 24 is movably provided on a related one of the posts 20 so that it is movable along the upper end of the first tube 21, the joint 23 and the lower end of the second tube 22. Moreover, it should be noted that each of the rings 24 is restrained on the upper end of the first tube 21 and the lower end of the second tube 22.
  • a lower spring-biased detent 26 is located in the first tube 21 so that the lower spring-based detent 26 is inserted in the aperture 28 of the first tube 21.
  • a middle spring-biased detent 26 and an upper spring-biased detent 26 are provided in the second tube 22 so that the middle and upper spring-biased detents 26 are inserted in the apertures 28 of the second tube 22.
  • Each of the six collars 40 includes a pin 41 formed thereon and an aperture 42 defined therein.
  • Three of the six collars 40 are movably provided on one of the posts 20 while the other collars 40 are movably provided on the other post 20.
  • the three collars 40 provided on each of the posts 20 will be referred to as the lower collar 40, the middle collar 40 and the upper collar 40.
  • the upper, middle and lower collars 40 are movable past the ring 24.
  • each of the trays 30 includes a wall 31, two opposite apertures 32 defined in the wall 31, and two opposite arched slots 33 defined in the wall 31.
  • the trays 30 will be referred to as the lower tray 30, the middle tray 30 and the upper tray 30.
  • the pin 41 of each of the lower collars 40 is inserted in a related one of the arched slots 33 of the lower tray 30 so that the lower tray 30 is connected to the lower collars 40.
  • the pin 41 of each of the middle collars 40 is inserted in a related one of the arched slots 33 of the middle tray 30 so that the middle tray 30 is connected to the middle collars 40.
  • the pin 41 of each of the upper collars 40 is inserted in a related one of the arched slots 33 of the upper tray 30 so that the upper tray 30 is connected to the upper collars 40.
  • Each of the buckles 50 includes a recess 51 defined therein near an end.
  • the buckles 50 will be referred to as the lower buckles 50, the middle buckles 50 and the upper buckles 50.
  • Each of the lower buckles 50 is pivotally connected, at an opposite end, to the wall 31 of the lower tray 30.
  • Each of the middle buckles 50 is pivotally connected, at an opposite end, to the wall 31 of the middle tray 30.
  • Each of the upper buckles 50 is pivotally connected, at an opposite end, to the wall 31 of the upper tray 30.
  • the lid 60 is pivotally connected to the wall 31 of the upper tray 30. By the lid 60, the upper tray 30 is closed or opened.
  • the ring 24 is moved to an upper position so that it is provided on the lower end of the second tube 22 but disengaged from the upper end of the first tube 21.
  • the second tube 22 can be pivoted between a horizontal position as shown in FIG. 1 and a vertical position as shown in FIG. 2 . In the horizontal position, the second tube 22 is located on the upper tray 30.
  • the ring 24 is moved to a lower position so that it is provided on the lower end of the second tube 22 and the upper end of the first tube 21.
  • the second tube 22 is retained in the vertical position as shown in FIG. 2 .
