application filed 511116 4,
a 'dll who??? it mdy concern.-
Be it known that Ldosnrri Pn'o'nfia citi- Zen of the United States, residing at Eau Claire, in the county of Earl-Claire and State 5 of Wiscohs'inifhave invent-ed a new and -use= which the f wm 'V-ith the foregoing and oth er objects in viewwvhic'h will appear as'the description proceeds, the invention resides in tl'ie'bombination -'ai'1d-arrangement of parts and in "the details ofconstruction"hereinafter described and claimed, it being understood t'l i a t changes in the precise embodiment of 't'he insemi on herein disclosed; may-be made With-i in the"-sco'pe off what is" claimed, without 'd'epa i ti ng from t-he spirit of the invention. Referring to the drawings: I V v Fi-gii're 1 is a perspective view-0 f a work bench constri'ictedin-accordance "with the invention.
Figure 2 is aneievational view thereof;
Figure 3 is a front elevat-ional view of a work bench.
Figure 4 is an end elevational view of va bench in its folded position. 1
Figure 5 is a sectional view taken on line 5-5 of Figure 3.
Figure 6 is an enlarged fragmental sectional view of the table top disclosing the outer jaw supporting bar of the vise and hangers for supporting the same.
Referring to the drawings in detail, the bench includes a top 5 to which the front bar 6 is secured, the front bar 6 constituting one of the jaws of the vise to be hereinafter more fully described.
The bench also includes supporting legs which are disposed at the respective ends of the bench, the supporting legs comprising pivotally' connected mem ers 8 that have rh'eir upper end-s piv'ota n eonnect-d "to the vertical '-'supporting bars 9,} at 1 0, the 'bars 9 "aid jaicent to the ends memoryv The lowerends of the supportingb'ars 9 are disposed-adjacentto theleg members 8 andha've connection "therewith; through the being secured toth'e'bars fi and -7 fat points tubular members fll and i-od's 12 that move within thet'ubular'members 1 1, the tubular members having frigid connection wvith the supporting bars 9 a't' =13, the opposite ends of the tubular*membersbeing'held to-the bars 9 by means of thefi'eye wbolts i l.
4 Therod 12 are 1:) votallyconnected t5 the 1 *The bar 17 is supported atone efithe ends "of the respective bars 18, the opposite ends of the bars ls being hin gedly connected to the iboard' 1 9,' at'=20, the board l9 bein'g' secured to *the bar 7. 'Depending from the under su rfaceoftheforwardboard 2-1 that forms apart of th'e bendhitop 5am swings Q2 that-support the' bars '18 'a't' points adjacent to the forward ends thereof,"the iconnection tesween 'barsw1'8 'and the top being 7 such as to permit o f-movementof-"the' bars 18-with respecttothetop 5; stoniove the members send Tl-Titowtzard'sand: away from each other to accomplish the clamping result.
Thus it will be seen that since the bars 18 are pivotally connected to the member 7 and the member 6 carried by the members 9 that when the members 9 on opposite sides of the bench are brought towards each other,
the member 17 is moved away from the front bar 6, to the end that an article may be positioned therebetween and clamped in such position when pressure is brought to bear on the table. The clamplng is accom plished by the upper ends of themembers 8 moving away from each other.
In order that the forward section 21 may move with respect tothe main portion of the bench top 5, hinges 23 are provided for 'connecting the members 5 and 21. At one end of the bench 5 is a supporting block 24 proriding a rest for the extension 0f the end 28 employed as an abutment to beepgaged by one end of a board under operation.
' At the rear of the bench is supported a ladder indicated at 29, which ladder includes forward extended supporting bars 30 provided with openings accommodating thesupporting rod 31 that has its ends positioned in suitable openings formed in the leg members 8 as shown by Figure 1 of the drawings.
A chain 32 connects the'ladder with the forward ends of the bars 30'so that movement of the ladder with respect to the bars 30 will be restricted. When the ladder is moved to its folded position, the ladder contacts wit-h the board 33 secured to the blocks 34 that have connection with the opposed leg members 8; I vWhen it is desired to fold the bench in a manner as shown'by Figure 4 of the drawings, the upper ends of the members are moved towards each other, and since the top 5 is carried by the upper ends of the leg members 8 at the left side of the bench, viewing the bench from one end thereofas shown by Figure 5, the top will hinge downwardlv to a position as shown by Figure 4;, while the members '18 will swing to posi- 1 tions as shown by Figure 4, due to the hinged connection at 20, to the member 19 which is carried at the rear of thebench.
The step ladder which is shown as forming a part of the work bench is designed to permit the use of the work bench as a ladder, should it be desired to reach onto shelves which are usually positioned above work benches.
From the foregoing it will be seen that I have provided a work bench which may be readily and easily foldedinto a small and-compact article to facilitate the transportation of the same, and at the same time provided a vise built in the bench proper.
VVhat' I claim as new is 1. A work bench including leg sections pivotally connected at points intermediate their ends, a bench top including a forward section, and including a board hingedly connected to the forward section, said forward section constituting a vise jaw, a movable jaw section cooperating with the first mentioned jaw section to clamp an article to the bench, and supporting bars for supporting the movable jaw section.
2. A work bench including foldable leg sections, a hinged top supported at the upper ends of the leg sections, a stationary vise section at one side of the top, a movable vise section, bars supported by the leg sections, swings on the movable vise section andadapted to support the movable vise section, and resilient means for holding the foldable leg sections in their eX- tended positions. I
.3. A work bench including foldable leg sections, a'hinged top supported at the upper ends of the foldable leg sections, bars extending downwardly from the top, tubular members supported by the bars, rods extending into the tubular members and hav ing connection with the leg sections, and means at the lower ends of the rods-and adapted to engage the lower ends of the tubular members to restrict movement of the to t '4. i work bench includingleg sections, ,pivotally connected at points intermediate their ends, a top hingedly connected to the leg sections, a front bar forming a part of the top and constituting a vise jaw, saidv JosEPH PAUL.
