  • Publication number: 20080029182
    Abstract: A vibration and noise reducing workbench structure is disclosed. The workbench is a multiplayer structure comprising a metal board, a cushioning layer and a wooden layer stacked upon each other. The metal board is disposed at the top, and the cushioning layer is sandwiched between the metal board and the wooden layer. The presence of a cushioning layer can effectively absorb the vibration and accompanying noise transmitted from the top-layer metal board. As such, lightweight and thinner metal board can be used to lower the production cost and the weight of the entire workbench structure, and the handling of workbench is made easier with the use of less manpower, thereby reducing industrial accidents and costs.

The shaft has a round opening in the center and a plurality of shallow and deep grooves axially and alternately formed in the inside circumference of the round opening. The lever has a fulcrum on the load seat, a force applying point and a force reaction point located between the fulcrum and the force applying point. The top end of the brake body makes contact with the force reaction point. Through the interaction between the lever, spring and up or down movement of the brake body, the brake pad may make A forced contact with the wheel for braking or separate with the wheel to release braking. The lever does not move with the wheel and is convenient to use.
