Claims12
An apparatus for adjustably supporting a fancywork frame in a plurality of positions, comprising a pair of upright posts, a spacer member, means for mounting the spacer member at a selected height between said posts, rod means carried by said spacer member and extending transversely thereof and being longitudinally and rotatably adjustable relative thereto, support means connected to said rod means, and means for mounting the fancywork frame on said support means, whereby said posts may be disposed in side-by-side relationship and the fancywork frame selectively cantilevered from the spacer member and angularly adjusted relative to said posts.
An apparatus for providing a working support for fancywork comprising a fancywork frame, support means for adjustably supporting said fancywork frame in a plurality of positions including first and second upright posts having upper and lower portions, said first and second posts having opposed facing surfaces having a plurality of vertically spaced openings adjacent their upper portions, said vertically spaced openings of said first post being in substantially horizontal alignment with said vertically spaced openings in said second post, and means for selectively mounting said fancywork frame in a pair of aligned openings in said posts, whereby said means for mounting said fancywork frame permit said frame to be angularly adjusted relative to said first and second posts.
An apparatus for adjustably supporting a fancywork frame in a plurality of positions comprising a pair of upright posts having first and second generally parallel surfaces, the first surface of each of said posts being relatively smooth and the second surface having a plurality of recesses, each of said recesses having a bolt receiving hole extending through said post and providing an opening on the smooth side thereof, an elongated spacer means having an outwardly extending bolt carried by each end and adapted to be cooperatively received within aligned recesses of said posts when the recessed surfaces of said posts are in facing relationship with each other, said outwardly extending bolt of one end of said spacer means being selectively received in one of said openings along said first side of one of said upright posts when said posts are positioned with said first surfaces in facing relationship with each other, a bore hole extending through said spacer means generally normal to the longitudinal axis thereof, an elongated cylindrical dowel rod means, a support block hingedly connected to said clamp member, and means for mounting the working frame on said support block, whereby when said upright posts are positioned so that said first surfaces are in opposed facing relationship the fancywork frame may be supported at opposite ends between said upright posts and selectively when said upright posts are positioned with said second surfaces in opposed facing relationship, said posts may be disposed in side-by-side relationship with said spacer means extending between said aligned recesses and the fancywork frame may be cantilevered therefrom.
