Abstract
A saw horse device is provided. The device may include at least one block, such as a first block, rotatably coupled to a horizontal beam. The first block may have a first right surface and a first left surface. A first right leg may be coupled to the first right surface, and a first left leg may be coupled to the first left surface. The first block may be configured to be rotated between a parallel position and a perpendicular position. Optionally, one or more blocks may comprise a right block arrestor that rotationally arrests the first right leg to the block and/or a left block arrestor that rotationally arrests the left leg to the block.
Claims19
A sawhorse device, the device comprising:
- a horizontal beam having a lower surface;
- a first block rotatably coupled to the horizontal beam, the first block comprising:
- (a) a first right surface facing externally away from the first block,
- (b) a first left surface facing externally away from the first block in an opposite direction from the first right surface,
- (c) a first right stop surface and a first left stop surface wherein the first right stop surface protrudes outwardly away from and overhangs the first right surface and wherein the first left stop surface protrudes outwardly away from and overhangs the first left surface;
- (d) a bearing surface forming an upper end of the first block, the bearing surface in direct physical contact with the lower surface of the horizontal beam and configured to provide support to the horizontal beam;
- a first right leg having a right leg upper terminal end and a right leg lower terminal end, the first right leg coupled to the first right surface outside of the first block and in contact with both the first right stop surface and the first right surface so that the right leg upper terminal end is in direct physical contact with the first right stop surface, and
- a first left leg having a left leg upper terminal end and a left leg lower terminal end, the first left leg coupled to the first left surface outside of the first block and in contact with both the first left stop surface and the first left surface so that the left leg upper terminal end is in direct physical contact with the first leg stop surface.

A sawhorse device, the device comprising:
- a horizontal beam;
- a first block rotatably coupled to the horizontal beam, the first block having a first bearing surface that is substantially planar in shape, a first right surface, and a first left surface, wherein the first right surface and first left surface are angled relative to each other and wherein the first right surface and the first left surface each comprise a first block aperture;
- a first right leg coupled to the first right surface, and a first left leg coupled to the first left surface;
- a second block rotatably coupled to the horizontal beam, the second block having a second bearing surface, a second right surface and a second left surface, wherein the second right surface and second left surface are angled relative to each other and wherein the second right surface and the second left surface each comprise a second block aperture;
- a second right leg coupled to the second right surface, and a second left leg coupled to the second left surface;
- a first coupler configured to fit within the first block aperture, the first coupler having a first top opening to accept a first vertical fastener and side openings to accept a first leg fastener and a second leg fastener thereby allowing the first coupler to secure the horizontal beam, the first right leg, and the first left leg at the same time;
- and
- a second coupler configured to fit within the second block aperture, the second coupler having a second top opening to accept a second vertical fastener and side openings to accept a third leg fastener and a fourth leg fastener thereby allowing the second coupler to secure the horizontal beam, the second right leg, and the second left leg at the same time.
