Abstract:
1. A rebar bending device for allowing a user to bend a rebar, said rebar bending device comprising: (a) a base plate having a top surface, a bottom surface, a first end, and a second end; (b) a support beam attached to the bottom surface of the base plate, wherein the support beam is for allowing the rebar bending device to be mounted on a bed of a pickup truck, a tripod, a trailer hitch, or the like; (c) a first measurement plate attached to the top surface of the base plate near the first end, wherein the first measurement plate has a top surface, a bottom surface, a first end, and a second end; wherein the first measurement plate is fixedly attached to the base plate; (d) a rotator plate pivotally attached to the top surface of the base plate near the second end; wherein the rotator plate has a top surface, a bottom surface, a first end, and a second end; (e) a first steel pin for pivotally connecting the rotator plate to the base plate, wherein the rotator plate can pivot about the first steel pin; (f) a handle disposed on the second end of the rotator plate, wherein the handle allows the user to rotate the rotator plate about the first steel pin; (g) a second measurement plate fixedly attached to the top surface of the first measurement plate near the second end of the first measurement plate and pivotally attached to the top surface of the rotator plate near the first end of the rotator plate via the first steel pin, wherein the second measurement plate has a top surface, a bottom surface, a first end, and a second end, wherein the first steel pin connects the second measurement plate to the rotator plate; wherein the rotator plate can pivot about the first steel pin between the base plate and the second measurement plate; (h) a second steel pin disposed on the top surface of the second measurement plate near the first steel pin; and (i) a third steel pin disposed on the top surface of the rotator plate near the second end; wherein the rebar can be positioned in between the first steel pin, the second steel pin, and the third steel pin; wherein a user can bend the rebar by rotating the rotator plate via the handle.
