Abstract:
A drawing horse and a multi-task work station for a user comprising:a generally rectangular, three dimensional central frame structure, said central frame structure having a fore end and an aft end and a top frame and a bottom frame, said central frame structure having a width, spanning said top frame, small enough and adapted to be straddled by said user;generally planar, rectangular end frame structures mounted on said fore end and said aft end; of said central frame structure,a user's seat disposed on said top frame of said central frame structure;said fore end and said aft end frame structures each having extending frame portions rising above said top frame of said central frame structure and further having a pair of extending end posts at opposite sides of said extending frame portions;said fore end frame structure defining an open frame work;wherein a planar board is adapted to rest between said seat and said extending end posts of said fore end frame structure;a removable drafting board system having left and right side drafting board support members, each drafting board support member having a pair of end post caps adapted to mate with said pair of extending end posts of said fore and aft end frame structures, each drafting board support member having a cross support beam joining each said pair of end post caps, said drafting board system including left and right side hinged support elements which arce correspondingly pivotally mounted on left and right side cross support beams of said left and right side support members, said drafting board system having left and right side means for providing upright support respectively to said left and right hinged support elements, wherein said planar board is adapted to be disposed on said hinged support elements such that said planar board is adapted to be overlaid atop and vertically spaced apart said top frame of said central frame structure;a tray having a top side and a bottom side, said bottom side having a complementary shape adapted to mate with said open frame work of said fore end frame structure, said top side of said tray having at least one containment cavity, said tray adapted to be fit atop said fore end frame structure when said central frame structure is vertically disposed with said aft end frame structure placed on a ground plane; and,having at least one containment cavity, said tray adapted to be fit atop said one end frame structure when said central frame structure is vertically disposed with said end frame structure placed on a ground plane;a planar drawing board and means for supporting said planar drawing board removably mounted atop said one end frame structure when said central frame structure is vertically disposed with said end frame structure placed on a ground plane.
