Abstract
A shooting support bench is disclosed for supporting a firearm, and which comprises a riser assembly for positioning on a support surface. The riser assembly comprises a standard having an upper end and a lower end; and a plurality of leg assemblies pivotally mounted on the standard toward the lower end. The bench further comprises a support assembly rotatably mounted on the upper end of the standard, and a seat assembly removably mounted on the seat support assembly for rotation with the support assembly with respect to the riser assembly. The bench also comprises a platform assembly mounted on the support assembly and the riser assembly, the platform assembly being positioned above the upper end of the standard and being rotatable with respect to the riser assembly.
Claims20
A shooting support bench for supporting a firearm, comprising:
- a riser assembly for positioning on a support surface, the riser assembly comprising a standard having an upper end and a lower end;
- and a plurality of leg assemblies pivotally mounted on the standard toward the lower end of the standard;
- a support assembly rotatably mounted on the upper end of the standard, the support assembly including a seat support assembly rotatable about the standard of the riser assembly;
- a seat assembly removably mounted on the seat support assembly such that the seat assembly and the seat support assembly rotate with respect to the riser assembly, the seat assembly rotating about the standard;
- and
- a platform assembly mounted on the support assembly at a location relatively higher than the seat assembly, the platform assembly being positioned above the upper end of the standard and being rotatable with respect to the riser assembly;
- wherein the platform assembly is tiltable with respect to the riser assembly about a substantially horizontal axis to raise a rearward edge of the platform located relatively closer to the seat assembly with respect to a forward edge of the platform located relatively farther away from the seat assembly than the rearward edge.
A shooting support bench for supporting a firearm, comprising:
- a riser assembly for positioning on a support surface, the riser assembly comprising a standard having an upper end and a lower end, a plurality of leg assemblies pivotally mounted on the standard toward the lower end of the standard;
- a support assembly rotatably mounted on the upper end of the standard;
- a seat assembly removably mounted on the support assembly for rotation with the support assembly with respect to the riser assembly;
- and
- a platform assembly mounted on the support assembly at a location relatively higher than the seat assembly, the platform assembly being positioned above the upper end of the standard and being rotatable with respect to the riser assembly;
- wherein the support assembly comprises:
- an interface plate positioned above and rotatable with respect to the standard, the interface plate being positioned at a location lower than the platform;
- and
- a seat support assembly for supporting the seat assembly, the seat support assembly being mounted on and depending from the interface plate, the seat support assembly abutting against the standard.
A shooting support bench for supporting a firearm, comprising:
- a riser assembly for positioning on a support surface, the riser assembly comprising a standard having an upper end and a lower end;
- and a plurality of leg assemblies pivotally mounted on the standard toward the lower end of the standard;
- a support assembly rotatably mounted on the upper end of the standard, the support assembly including a seat support assembly rotatable about the standard of the riser assembly;
- a seat assembly removably mounted on the seat support assembly such that the seat assembly and the seat support assembly rotate with respect to the riser assembly, the seat assembly rotating about the standard;
- and
- a platform assembly mounted on the support assembly at a location relatively higher than the seat assembly, the platform assembly being positioned above the upper end of the standard and being rotatable with respect to the riser assembly;
- wherein the seat assembly is removable from the support assembly without removal of the platform assembly from the standard of the riser assembly and without removal of the plurality of leg assemblies from the standard of the riser assembly.
