Abstract: An adjustable sawhorse having a work platform removably mounted atop two pairs of side rails. A pair of hinges connect the side rails of each side rail pair at one end thereof. The hinges may be selectively locked or unlocked to accommodate folding and unfolding of the sawhorse from a folded configuration to an upright configuration and vice versa. Each pair of side rails is also slidably mounted on another pair of side rails to accommodate extension thereof. Locking handles are provided for each extensible set of side rails so that they may be locked into one or more extended positions. Steps are mounted between each pair of side rails to enhance the versatility and use of the sawhorse.

Abstract: A work support or saw horse formed of lightweight tubular metal and having a hinge which facilitates folding of the support to a reduced size for storage and transportation. One embodiment of the support has integral portions which interlock to form an integral hinge which extends the entire length of the support.

Abstract: A sawhorse bracket having three commonly hinged members including a central member for connection to a horizontal beam and two leg members for connection to downwardly extending legs. A hinge pin placed through interleaved hinge posts of the three members allows rapid assembly and disassembly.

Abstract: In the illustrative embodiments disclosed, a novel step stool structure includes the sitting and climbing features of a traditional step stool and, in addition, a vise unit affording a vise action and a working surface for carpentry or other tasks. The vise unit comprises a pair of relatively movable vise beams, the upper surfaces of which provide the working surface. One or more movable seat-forming members, by themselves or in conjunction with the vise beams, provide a seat for use of the stool in the traditional step stool sense. Movement of the movable member or members allows conversion of the stool from a seat mode of use to a workbench mode of use and vice versa.

Abstract: Complementary leg-defining stampings hingedly secured together at the tops thereof with upper and lower integral struts between the defined legs at opposite ends of each thereof and including a pair of longitudinally extending shelf sections hingedly connected and projecting inwardly from the lower struts and hingedly fastened together at their inner meeting edges.

Abstract: A folding, rigid tent-like structure useful for a variety of play purposes can be constructed so as to utilize a pair of sides. These sides have top edges which are preferably connected by a connector and appropriate hinges so that the sides may be pivoted relative to one another. A pair of bottom walls are located between these sides adjacent to the bottom edges of these sides. The bottom walls have pivotally connecting adjacent edges and side edges which are pivotally connected to the sides. At least one folding link structure is secured to the sides beneath the bottom wall. This folding link structure serves to support the bottom walls against sagging. The tent-like structure may be folded to a flat position by concurrently folding the link structure between the sides and folding the bottom walls so that they are adjacent to one another between the sides as the sides themselves are pivoted so as to be adjacent to one another.

Abstract: Top, bottom and a pair of side panel type members are affixed to each other at their ends to form a rectangular configuration. A pair of foot members are pivotally affixed to the bottom member in juxtaposition therewith in spaced relation with each other in a manner whereby the foot members are positioned in alignment with the members in inoperable position and extend at right angles with the bottom member, although in a plane parallel to that of the bottom member, in operable position whereby they support the saw horse in an upright position.

Abstract: A scaffold and platform adaptable for assembly and disassembly consisting of similar rectangular platform blocks functioning together as lateral beams, each provided with upper and lower frames which are each adjustable manually as to height and which are supported always by means of two scissor members on the two opposite longitudinal sides, whereby the legs of the scissors are articulated with one end at a corner point of the lower frame, and can be arrested at their other upper end at the lateral beams of the upper frames in different positions, being characterized by intermediate slabs which are attachable at their upper frames and are insertable between the longitudinal sides of the platform blocks and wherein said intermediate slabs are joined to the middle longitudinal area of the upper frame-lateral beams of the platform block by attaching elements, which engage with the adjusting path of the upper ends of the legs of the scissors and limit the adjustment of height of the platform blocks to a permissi

Abstract: An improved foldable work stand and platform having an upper work support surface with wooden inserts therein to protect saws and the like from being damaged by accidental contact with the metal structure of the platform. The foldable work platform also includes improved structure for elevating the working surface and an adjustable stabilizer leg to maintain the work surface generally horizontal on uneven terrain. Lateral extensions of the work surface provide versatility in the work surface configuration and are easily secured in a selected orientation.
