The present invention relates to a novel vise that operates in both a threaded and unthreaded mode. The vise includes a fixed block, a movable head, a rod, a ratchet mechanism, a threaded mechanism and a toggle mechanism. In the threaded mode, the movable head may only be moved by rotating the rod. In the unthreaded mode, the movable head may only be moved by applying force to the movable head in the desired direction of movement.

Vise

A method for manufacturing an object is disclosed. The method includes the step of obtaining a preform of the object, with the preform having a first panel having a planar portion and at least one second panel. The second panel has an orientation which is different from that of the first panel. The planar portion of the first panel of the preform is thermoformed so as to have a protruding element. The thermoforming is done in a selective manner such that the at least one second panel is not thermoformed. The invention is also directed to a thermoforming device for performing the thermoforming.

Selective thermoforming of injection molded parts

The present application relates to a container or toolbox having a selectively removable lid. When the user is in need of a stool or step stool, she may unfold a leg assembly and step assembly contained within the lid. When the leg assembly is unfolded into its support position, the lid operates as a stool. Moreover, a step assembly may also be unfolded from the lid. In its deployed position, the step assembly provides an intermediate step beneath the upper surface of the lid. When the job is finished, the leg assembly and step assembly may be folded back into the lid such that the container may be used as a regular toolbox.

Container with stool in lid

A workbench includes a work support structure, a first leg member, a second leg member, a handle; and a rack and pinion system coupling the first leg, the second leg, and the handle. Moving the handle relative to the work support structure causes both the first leg member and the second leg member to extend from or retract into the work support structure via movement in the rack and pinion system.

Workbench

A sawhorse includes a body portion comprising an elongated portion, a first housing and a second housing. The first and second housings are connected to the elongated portion, with the second housing spaced from the first housing. First and second pairs of folding legs are pivotally attached to the first and second housing respectively, pivotable between open and folded positions. The first housing comprises a receiving region for receiving a distal end of the second pair of legs when in the folded position, the first receiving region comprising a first latch arranged to engage the second pair of legs, and the second housing comprises a second receiving region for receiving a distal end of the first pair of legs when in the folded position, the second receiving region comprising a second latch arranged to engage the first pair of legs.

Sawhorse

A tool case includes a body having a base and a pivotal lid, forming a storage space therein. A pair of panels is located in the storage space when the lid is closed. The first panel and the second panel are pivotally connected to each other at a common hinged edge, the pair of panels being movable between a stowed position in relation to the body, and an expanded position in relation to the body, such that in the expanded position at least one surface of each of the first and second panel are accessible. The first panel further comprises at least one unfixed edge and the second panel further comprises at least one fixed edge pivotally connected to the body. In the stowed position, the unfixed edge is substantially proximate to the fixed edge. In the expanded position, the unfixed edge is substantially distant from the fixed edge.

Case

A work bench including a frame foldable between an in-use position and a closed position. A table surface is connected to the frame. The frame includes two sides, the two sides connected to each other with a latchable bar and one or more fixed crossbars. The work bench also includes movable catch which is movable from a position in which it retains the latchable bar at the latched position to maintain the work bench in an in-use position, and a released position in which the latchable bar is release from the catch to allow the work bench to be folded into a closed position.

Work bench frame

Open top storage container

A work bench including a frame and a table surface connected to the frame. The table surface includes first and second table surface members. The first table surface member is movably coupled with the frame and has first and second ends. The work bench also includes a first user-actuatable drive member for moving the first end of the first table surface member, a second user-actuatable drive member for moving the second end of the first table surface member and a third user-actuatable drive member for moving the first end and the second end of the first table surface member concurrently.
