  • Patent number: 5407380
    Abstract: A grinder motor stand is disclosed which includes a base upon which an adjustable upstanding post is affixed. Preferably, the upstanding post extends through a central base opening and is affixed beneath an upper wall of the base so that two spaced points of affixation are provided for resisting bending moments on the upstanding shaft. An integral junction box is provided in the base having a male plug and a female socket wired in series and grounded to the base. The female socket of the junction box mates with a male plug of an electrical cord from a grinding motor supported on the stand. The male plug of the junction box mates with a female plug of a foot pedal control used to control the grinding motor. The base is weighted, and the two-point attachment of the upstanding posts provide a stable grinding motor stand which can be easily moved around and transported. The entire assembly may be knocked down for shipping or transportation.
