发明名称 Adjustable workpiece repair and buildup stand
摘要 The device disclosed comprises two major components: a fold-out stand and an adjustable repair and build-up stand. The adjustable repair and build-up stand is horizontally attached to the undersurfaces of the horizontal members of the fold-out stand, thereby minimizing workspace required in a typical auto body repair shop or other repair facility. A technician may clamp a workpiece to adjustable telescoping arms or a pair of swing arms, all integral to the repair and build-up stand, therefore enabling the stabilization and positioning required for repair of a damaged part or installation of necessary components to a part. Other shop work may be performed atop the fold-out stand since the repair and build-up stand is permanently located underneath the fold-out stand.

主权项 1. A portable, adjustable, and retractable repair and build-up stand for supporting and securely damping a workpiece, and to provide over one hundred seventy stable positions and orientations of said workpiece for access by a person performing repair operations or modifications on said workpiece, the retractable repair and build-up stand comprising (a) a fold-out stand and (b) a Repair and Buildup Stand 1, wherein said fold-out stand comprises an apparatus having two pivotally adjoined, inverted U-shaped legs, each leg defined by a horizontal cross-member having a clamp and attached bolt downward projecting affixed at the near end of said cross-member, a right member having a hook affixed thereto, and a left member having an affixed hook, further having a length of chain removably attachable to corresponding hooks on either right or left member; and further, where the height of said fold-out stand may be controlled by the crossing angle formed by adjusting the length of said chains fastened to the corresponding hooks, thereby allowing said cross-members of each respective U-shaped leg to draw nearer or be pushed further from each other, creating a range of heights for the fold-out stand; said Repair and Buildup Stand 1 comprises a hollow, horizontal, rectangular cross-sectioned slide rail, a left slide bracket, a left slide bracket hand knob, a hollow, rectangular cross-sectioned left arm housing, a removable rectangular cross-sectioned left telescoping arm, a left interior tightening knob, a tell assembly, and a left clamp-bolt; further comprising a right slide bracket, a right slide bracket hand knob, a hollow, rectangular right arm housing, a removable, rectangular cross-sectioned right telescoping arm, a right interior tightening knob, a right assembly, whereby said left and right telescoping arms may be either stored within the respective arm housings, or slidingly positioned at a desired horizontal extension outside of the respective left or right arm housings, or positioned in a plurality of extended angular orientations by the components of the respective left assembly and right assembly; a left assembly comprising a left slide bracket hand knob, a stem-threaded left interior tightening knob, a hollow, rectangular cross-sectioned left swivel arm welded to a left angle bracket, a stem-threaded left swivel arm adjustment knob, a left angle iron, a stem threaded left exterior adjusting knob, a left slotted locking bracket, a left locking bracket slot, and a left arm angle adjusting knob, wherein said left angle iron is welded to the bottom of the endmost section of said left arm housing, said left arm adjusting knob is threadingly tightened or loosened, through a first sleeve, to said horizontal rail, thereby allowing the left locking bracket slot of said left slotted locking bracket to move transverse to said first sleeve and thereby position the left angle bracket and the left swivel arm at various angles, and further, said left exterior adjusting knob being connected, through a threaded aperture, to said left angle bracket, so as to maintain said left angle bracket and its corresponding swivel arm in a stored position, or permit rotation of said left swivel arm into a plurality of angular positions, thus providing a plurality of positions of said removable left telescoping arm into said swivel arm, to be securely affixed within said left swivel arm by a tightening of the left swivel arm adjustment knob; and further, a right assembly comprising a right slide bracket hand knob, a stem-threaded right interior tightening knob, a hollow, rectangular cross-sectioned right swivel arm welded to a right angle bracket, a stem-threaded right swivel arm adjustment knob, a right angle iron, a stem threaded right exterior adjusting knob, a right slotted locking bracket, a right locking bracket slot, and a right arm angle adjusting knob, wherein said right angle iron is welded to the bottom of the endmost section of said right arm housing, said right arm adjusting knob is threadingly tightened or loosened, through a second sleeve, to said horizontal rail, thereby allowing the right locking bracket slot of said right slotted locking bracket to move transverse to said second sleeve and thereby position the right angle bracket and the right swivel arm at various angles, and further, said right exterior adjusting knob being connected, through an aperture, to said right angle bracket, so as to maintain said right angle bracket and its corresponding swivel arm in a stored position, or permit, rotation of said right swivel area into a plurality of angular positions of said removable right telescoping arm into said swivel arm, to be securely affixed within said right swivel arm by a tightening of the right swivel arm adjustment knob; a left vertical clamping ledge having an integral left flat clamping ledge, rotatable and/or slidable by means of an internal left machined slot about the stem of a left center locking hand knob, said left center locking band knob insertable into a threaded aperture within a left L-bracket, said L-bracket welded horizontally onto the side of the horizontal slide rail; and a right vertical clamping ledge having an integral right flat clamping ledge, rotatable and/or slidable by means of an internal right machined slot about the stem of a right center locking hand knob, said right center locking hand knob insertable into a threaded aperture within a right L-bracket, said L-bracket welded horizontally onto the side of the horizontal slide rail.
