FIGURE 1

Figure 1 is an illustrative view of the present invention in use whereby paint containers and applicators have been placed into appropriate receptacles formed into the top member of the painters workbench whereby said painting articles are located at a more convenient waist high position. Further said painters workbench has forwardly positioned wheels for selective mobility and rearwardly positioned leg members for maintaining said selective positioning. Also shown are hingedly attached handles, shown in a nonoperative position, which can be raised to their operative position providing means for selectively repositioning said workbench.

FIGURE 2

Figure 2 is a perspective view, taken from Fig 1 as indicated. Shown is the painters workbench in the unfolded operative configuration having front wheels fixedly attached to a side member providing means for selective mobility of the painters workbench and rear legs fixedly attached to a side member providing means for stationary stability. Also shown are hingedly attached handles, shown in a nonoperative position, shown in a nonoperative position, and having been raised to their operative position providing means for raising and steering said painters workbench to a predetermined selective position. Also shown is a hingedly attached top member having a plurality of formed receptacles being of varying size, depth and pitch to accommodate differing paint containers and applicators.

FIGURE 3

Figure 3 is a perspective view of the present invention. Shown is the painters workbench comprised of four sides having interior hinges providing means for inwardly collapsing said painters workbench to a nonoperative folded position and for holding the side members together in an operative position. The top member being hingedly attached to a side member is pivoted from a nonoperative storage position to an operative position being recessed within the side members and positioned on a number of stop blocks. Also shown are hingedly attached handles which can be raised to their operative position providing means for raising and steering said painters workbench to a predetermined selective position. Also shown is a bottom view of the top member showing the underside of a number of receptacles being of varying size, depth and pitch to accommodate differing paint containers and applicators.

FIGURE 4

Figure 4 is a perspective view of the present invention. Shown is the painters workbench being comprised of four sides having interior hinges providing means for inwardly collapsing said painters workbench to a nonoperative storage position and for holding the side members together in an operative position and having stop blocks located near the top edge providing stop and support blocks for the top member. The top member being hingedly attached to a side member has removable hinge pins whereby the top can be removed for easy cleaning purposes. Also shown are wheels providing means for selective mobility and rear legs providing means for stationary stability. Also shown are hingedly attached handles which when raised to their operative position provides means for raising and steering said painters workbench to a predetermined selective position. Also shown is a top perspective view of the top member showing a number of receptacles being of varying size, depth and pitch to accommodate differing paint containers and applicators.

FIGURE 7

Figure 7 is a perspective view of the present invention showing the painters workbench being folded whereupon the top member is pivotally raised from within the enclosure formed by three of the sides.

patent drawing
FIGURE 8

Figure 8 is a perspective view of the present invention showing the painters workbench continuing to be folded as shown in Fig 7, whereupon the top member has been pivotally moved to its nonoperative storage position. Also shown is one of the offset hinges allowing the sides to be inwardly collapsed.

patent drawing
FIGURE 9

Figure 9 is a top plan view, taken from Fig 8 as indicated, of the present invention showing the painters workbench continuing to be folded as shown in Fig 8, having the top member in the nonoperative storage position being hingedly attached to one of the sides. Also shown are the four sides having hinges placed within the vertices formed by the four sides. Two of the oppositely opposed vertices have offset hinges and the other two vertices have regular pin hinges.

patent drawing
FIGURE 10

Figure 10 is a top plan view of the present invention showing the painters workbench continuing to be folded as shown in Fig 9. Two of the oppositely opposed vertices formed by the four sides have offset hinges whereby when an inward force is placed on the exterior side of the other pair of oppositely opposed hinges the painters workbench will collapse inwardly allowing room for the stop blocks.
