Definitions

  • the present invention generally relates to a work bench which can also function as a tool support stand
  • Work benches and tool support stands are well known but typically separate articles
  • Work benches come in many shapes and sizes but generally do not easily support most power tools that are intended to be mounted.
  • Workbenches tend to have a large wide flat surface upon with a user can work on a project. They can have fixed or adjustable legs and may be stationary or transportable.
  • too! support stands generally employ a top surface which is generally very narrow to which a tool, such as a saw, can be mounted and legs to support the stand.
  • These too! support: stands come in any number of sizes and shapes, but typically have four legs that are fixed in the support position or can be individually folded or telescoped to a closed position.
  • Some of these known tool support stands also include extendable work surfaces that can be pulled out to make the overall length of the tool stand longer,
  • the present invention relates to work benches and tool support benches generally.
  • the present invention relates to a collapsible mobile work bench and tool support stand unit.
  • the unit is easily opened for use at any desired height and easily collapsible for storage or transportation.
  • the unit has a set of wheels and handles to make transportation easy.
  • the collapsible mobile work bench and tool support stand of the present invention has a work surface that remains horizontal regardless of the height of the work bench.
  • the work bench can also act as a mount for a tool.
  • Handles are attached to the work surface and include a trigger for controlling the height of the work surface at various positions between fully raised and collapsed. Between these positions, the height is infinitely adjustable,
  • the body of work surface has first and second arras journaled to the work surface that are rotatable between the collapsed position and the fully extended position.
  • a control box contains at least a main and secondary shaft upon which the first and second arms are journaled, Support legs are journaled to the control box and in the disclosed embodiment are journaled upon the main shaft within the control box.
  • the trigger operatively engages the first and second arms to control the rotation of the arms between the collapsed positions and fully extended positions.
  • the collapsible mobile workbench of the present invention is generally shown at 10 in figure L
  • the workbench 10 has a single plane work surface 12 that allows the operator to use the workbench when a tool is not installed.
  • the workbench 10 has handles 14 that allow the workbench to be moved upon wheels 20 and to allow the workbench to deploy the support frame 16 through control box 18.
  • the handles 14 include triggers 15 to control the position of the work bench 10.
  • the triggers 15 are squeezed to engage the control box 18.
  • the control box 18 contains for example a gearbox that interconnects the members of the support frame 16 and allows it to rotate between the raised and collapsed positions.
  • the members of the support frame 16 include wheel supports 22sand support legs 24.
  • Support arms 26 and 28 extend from the control box 18 to the work surface 12.
  • the arms 26 and 28 are journaled upon shafts in the control box 18 and mounted to the interior of the work surface 12.
  • the work surface 12 can be raised to any desired level between collapsed and fully raised.
  • the arms 26 and 28 arc raised together to maintain the work surface 12 parallel at any desired height. Once the desired height is obtained, the triggers 15 are released to maintain that desired position.
  • the control box 18 includes a main shaft 40 having a control gear 42 mounted upon the shaft 40.
  • a locking finger 43 connected to the trigger 15 through a control wire 45 engages the gear 42 to lock the gear 42 in place or release the gear 42.
  • the control wire 45 is snaked through the arms 26 and 28 in the disclosed embodiment.
  • the control wire 45 connected to the trigger 5 can be engaged and disengaged to control the rotation of the shaft 40,
  • the arms 28 are mounted to the shaft 40 and there position is determined by the position of the shaft 40.
  • the shaft 40 is journaled in opposed bearings 46 mounted to the control box 18.
  • the shaft 40 can be spring loaded to allow for automatic raising or collapsing with biased resistance in the opposite direction.
  • pawls 48 which engage gears 50 mounted on the legs 24.
  • the pawls 48 act as a ratchet to control the position of the legs 24.
  • the legs 26 are mounted on shafts (not shown) within the control box 18 and are journaled upon these shafts. In the disclosed embodiment, the legs 26 freely rotate upon the shaft.
  • the pawls 48 control the position of the legs 26.
  • the trigger 15 connected to the control wire 45 when engaged releases the locking finger 43 allowing the shaft 40 to rotate.
  • Rotation of shaft 40 causes support arms 28 to raise or lower to my desired position.
  • the support arms 26 are journaled upon shafts (not shown) mounted within the control box 18 and are free to move in response to the movement of arms 26.
  • the work surface 12 remains horizontal
  • the trigger 15 is released and the gear 42 is engaged by the locking finger 43,
  • the support leg 24 is positioned by the operator stepping on the support leg connecting bar 55 and ratchetting the support legs gear 50 against the pawl 48.
  • a second embodiment of the height control feature of the present Invention is illustrated,
  • the arms 26 and 28 are journaled upon shaft 40 within the control box (18) and freely rotate about the shafts.
  • the opposite ends of the arms 28 are journaled upon a connecting bar 55 that is mounted within slots 60 formed in opposing interior sides of the workbench 10,
  • a locking bar 57 is controlled by the trigger 15 in the handle 14.
  • the trigger 15 can raise and lower the locking bar 57 to control the position of the anus 28 and as a result the position of the arms 26.
  • the locking bar 57 is spring loaded into the locked position.
  • a tool 30 is shown mounted to the workbench 10.
  • the work surface 12 is generally shaped as an hourglass, with the opposed ends being wider than the middle.
  • the middle is narrower to accommodate quick mounts 31 attached to a tool Quick mounts 31 are used to quickly mount the too! to the work surface 12 of the workbench 10.
  • Each side of the work surface includes a moveable platform 32 that can be raised with respect to the work surface 12 through links 34.
  • the links 34 form a parallelogram so that the platform 32 moves upward and parallel to the work surface.
  • the platform 32 can also slide with respect to the tool 30 mounted to the work surface 12, In this way, the platform 32 can be raised to the height of the tool base surface 36 of the tool mounted to the surface 12 and can be slid to adjacent the tool base surface 36.
