Abstract
A creeper (10) includes a first frame portion (11) and a second frame portion (12). The frame portions (11, 12) are connected to each other only by longitudinally extending rails (13). Each frame portion (11, 12) is generally U-shaped having arms (16) which carry caster assemblies (18) and a base member (17) which interconnects the arms (16). The rails (13) extend between the base members (17) of the frames (11, 12).
Claims15
A creeper comprising a first frame, a second frame separate from said first frame, each said frame being generally U-shaped having opposed arms and a base member interconnecting said arms, at least one rail extending from said base member of said second frame to said base member of said first frame, and a pad carried by said frames and said rail, wherein said arms of each said frame have an arm length and said rail has a rail length, said rail length being greater than the sum of said first frame arm length and said second frame arm length, and wherein the ends of said arms of said first frame are spaced from and face the ends of said second frame.
A creeper comprising a first frame having laterally spaced arms having an arm length, a second frame having laterally spaced arms having an arm length, at least one longitudinally extending rail laterally spaced from said arms of said first and said second frames and connecting said frames and having a rail length, and a longitudinally extending pad carried by said frames and said at least one longitudinally extending rail, wherein said rail length is greater than the sum of length, and wherein the ends of said arms of said first frame are spaced from and face the ends of said second frame.
A creeper comprising a first frame having laterally spaced arms having an arm length, a second frame having laterally spaced arms having an arm length, said arms of said first frame not being connected to said arms of said second frame, at least one rail extending longitudinally between said frames and connecting said frames and having a rail length, and a pad carried by said frames and said at least one rail, wherein said rail length is greater than the sum of said first frame arm length and said second frame arm length, and wherein the ends of said arms of said first frame are spaced from and face the ends of said second frame.
