Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] This invention relates to a foldable glass workbench used for installing and replacing glass such as automobile windows and doors.

Traditionally, when installing and replacing automobile glass in auto repair shops and other places, there is no special workbench, and the loading platform of a small truck, a normal machine workbench, a desk-like workbench, etc. are used. Loading platforms, etc. do not always have the space necessary for placing glass, modifying the edges, or wrapping rubber pads, and are not necessarily structured appropriately as work platforms. In addition, a normal workbench also has poor mobility and has a mere flat top surface, which causes problems such as instability and frequent damage to the glass surface when placing or processing curved glass.

The present invention that solves the above problems has legs 2a and 2b at the lower ends of both the front and rear sides, and the upper end is the front and rear legs 2.
A pair of U-shaped frames 1a and 1 forming continuous parts 3a and 3b that connect parts a and 2b.
b, and the front and rear legs 2 of the frames 1a, 1b are provided.
a, 2b intersect at their intermediate parts, and at the intersection, the legs 2a, 2b are rotatably supported by pins 6, and frames 1a, 1b are constructed.
It has a structure in which the upper and lower ends of the frame can be opened, closed and folded left and right, and the pins 10 and 9 are provided inwardly at a position above the intersection of the frames 1a and 1b, and the continuous portion 3a of each frame 1a and 1b. 3b, an intermediate table 7 and a work table 16 are provided which are detachably and substantially horizontally attached to the pins 10, 9 or the continuous portions 3a, 3b on the lower surface side of each of the tables 7, 16. An engaging portion 8 or a locking portion 17 for fixing the frames 1a, 1b in the open leg state is provided respectively, and the continuous portions 3a, 3b are provided with an engaging portion 8 or a locking portion 17 for fixing the frames 1a, 1b in an open state.
To provide a foldable glass workbench on which a rubber 15 is attached so that the surface of a window glass, door glass, etc. can be placed without damaging the surface of the glass without a table attached.

The embodiment shown below will be described in detail: a pair of workbench frames 1a formed into a U-shape by bending a pipe so that the open end faces downward;
A swivel caster 4 with a locking device is attached to the lower end of each leg 2a, 2b of the frame 1b, and a horizontal continuous portion 3a, 3 at the upper part of the frame 1a, 1b.
A cover 5 made of a highly elastic material such as rubber or resin and having a C-shaped cross section is externally attached to b.

The adjacent leg portions 2a and 2b at the front and back of each of the workbench frames 1a and 1b are crossed at approximately the center thereof, and the crossed portions are rotatably connected to each other by pins 6.
The frame 1a, 1b can be opened and closed from side to side to create a foldable mechanism. frame 1b
One end of an intermediate table 7, which is supported horizontally within the frame, is pivotally supported by a pin 9 above the above-mentioned pivot support. A plurality of engaging portions 8 consisting of notches are formed at intervals of about 100 mm, and correspondingly, an engaging pin 10 is formed on the inside of one frame 1a at the same height as the pin 9 so as to face each other. It is installed protrudingly.

One of the engaging portions 8 engages with this pin 10 depending on the open/closed state of the frames 1a, 1b, thereby horizontally and removably supporting the intermediate table 7. A straight glass accommodating part 11 with a channel-like cross section is fixed in the front and back direction approximately at the center of the intermediate table 7, and this accommodating part 11 is attached to the horizontal intermediate table 7, for example, at the edge of a door glass 12. It is used to accommodate the lower end and make it stand upright, to perform other end face processing while stabilizing the lower end, or to attach a dumb rubber, which will be described later. The other space of the intermediate table 7 can be used as a place for aligning tools and other parts. A cord reel hook 13 is attached to the left end of the intermediate table 7.

Continuous portion 3a forming the upper side of frames 1a, 1b,
3b is equipped with highly elastic covers 5, 5, so that the curved window glass 14 can be placed directly and stably on the upper surface of the frame with its legs fixed as shown in FIG. In this state, the peripheral surface of the window glass 14 can be repaired and the dam rubber can be installed.

Frames 1a, 1 with legs fixed as above
On b, a work table 16 having a flat plate shape and having elastic rubber 15 adhered to the upper surface is horizontally and removably placed. At symmetrical positions on the left and right sides of the lower surface of the workbench 16, there are locking parts 1 made of angles or the like that are parallel to the front and back.
A plurality of frames 1 7 and 17 are provided in a protruding manner, and each stage of the frame 1 is determined according to the engagement position between the engagement pin 10 and the engagement portion 18 of the intermediate table 7.
The continuous portions 3a and 3b of the frame are fitted and locked between the locking portions 17 and 17, depending on the open state of the legs a and 1b.

As a result, the intermediate table 7 and the work table 16 are always supported horizontally at the middle or upper end of the frames 1a, 1b, and the frames themselves are also stably fixed in a spread-open manner. Also, as already set up, intermediate table 7 and work table 16
The open leg state in which the legs are engaged and supported will directly determine the height at which each table is fixed.

As shown in the figure, a dumb rubber support pipe 18 is removably supported on the upper outer side of the leg 2b, and a dumb rubber (rubber packing) 19 that is attached to the circumferential surface of glass 12, 14 for windows and doors is mounted on a drum. A piece wound into a shape is inserted and supported, and while being rotated, a required length of dumb rubber is taken out. Note that the outer periphery of the glass 12 for the door and the work of applying dumb rubber are performed on the top surface of the work table 16 and the frame 1.
It is also possible to carry out the process with the parts placed on the upper ends of the parts a and 1b.

As a result of this device being constructed as described above, it is possible to stably place the glass while preventing damage to the surface when installing or replacing glass in various parts of a car, and it is also very easy to repair or process glass. In addition to being easy to use, the workbench itself has a simple structure, is lightweight, and is foldable, making it extremely convenient to carry. The height can be adjusted according to the needs of the work, and it can also be used as a step stool depending on the type of vehicle.
