Patent ID: 8479664

Claim:
An apparatus for connection to a barricading structure, the apparatus comprising: a mountable backsplash, said backsplash being configured for attachment to the barricading structure, said backsplash defining a plurality of backsplash slots; a hinge pin, said hinge pin penetrating each of said plurality of backsplash slots; a foldable support platform, said foldable support platform defining a plurality of connectors, each of said plurality of connectors defining a connector slot penetrating through said connector, each of said plurality of connectors being disposed within a one of said plurality of backsplash slots, said hinge pin penetrating each said connector slot; said plurality of connectors being configured for a slideable engagement with said plurality of backsplash slots, said foldable support platform being supported by said backsplash in a horizontal position when said plurality of connectors is in said slideable engagement with said plurality of backsplash slots and said backsplash is attached to the barricading structure; said foldable support platform being rotatable about said hinge pin between said horizontal position and a downward position when said plurality of connectors are not in said slideable engagement with said plurality of backsplash slots, a leg support axle, said leg support axle being attached to said backsplash and oriented in a vertical direction when said backsplash is attached to the barricading structure; a leg support, supported by said leg support axle, said leg support being configured for rotation about said leg support axle between a stored position and a deployed position, said leg support defining an arc when said leg support moves between said stored position and said deployed position, said leg support having an intermediate position between said stored position and said deployed position along said arc, said leg support being configured to support said foldable support platform when said leg support is in said deployed position, said leg support being configured to support said foldable support platform when said leg support is in said intermediate position, said leg support being configured not to support said foldable support platform when said leg support is in said stored position; a ramp, said ramp being defined by a bottom side of said foldable support platform, said ramp being in the shape of a quadrant, said leg support and said ramp being configured for engagement when said leg support is in said intermediate position and when said leg support is in said deployed position, said ramp defining a rise with respect to said foldable support platform, said rise of said ramp corresponding to said intermediate position of said leg support being less than said rise of said ramp corresponding to said deployed position, whereby a user may level said foldable support platform by selecting said intermediate position or said deployed position of said leg support.
