  • Patent number: 5331904
    Abstract: An improved tool tray support assembly comprises a center section, opposed extensible lateral support members and end support assemblies. The end support assemblies fit onto end sections of the lateral support members, and support the assembly on opposed edges of an engine compartment of a motor vehicle. The lateral support members slide within the center section and can be locked at any desired position to adjust the spacing of the end supports to accommodate various engine compartments. The angular orientation of the center section can be varied by adjustment of the position of the lateral support members with respect to the end supports. Tool trays of standard dimensions fit between the opposed lateral rails of the support member to enable convenient storage of small tools and parts. The tool tray assembly may also be supported beneath a vehicle service lift or the like, and the tool trays may be supported by brackets on wheeled stools for increased flexibility in their use.

  • Patent number: 4811875
    Abstract: The present disclosure describes a portable bench which finds particular application in the automotive field. The bench is comprised of a main body for supporting a pair of opposed drawers in sliding relationship to one another. When the drawers are in a closed position, they are concealed within the main body. A support assembly is removably attached to the front of each of the drawers. In use, the bench is oriented at a right angle to the longitudinal axis of the vehicle. The drawers are slid outward from the main body to permit the support assemblies to engage the respective opposite fenders of the vehicle. Tools, parts and related materials may be rested upon the main body which can be slid from one extremity of the bench to the other. Items placed in the drawers during use of the bench may be temporarily stored therein when the bench is removed from the vehicle and the drawers closed.
