Abstract
A portable workbench includes a top structure, a support structure and a collapsible frame. The top structure includes top members lying in a common plane. The top members include upper working surfaces and lower supporting surfaces. The lower supporting surfaces include a plurality of rib portions formed thereon. The top members further include longitudinally extending opposed side portions defining clamping surfaces. A linkage mechanism cooperates with the frame to actuate the workbench between an expanded working position and a collapsed transport position. A lever releasably cooperates with the frame to maintain the workbench in a locked expanded position.
