Abstract:
A workbench includes a work support structure, a first leg member, a second leg member, a handle; and a rack and pinion system coupling the first leg, the second leg, and the handle. Moving the handle relative to the work support structure causes both the first leg member and the second leg member to extend from or retract into the work support structure via movement in the rack and pinion system.

Claim (Index 27):
A workbench comprising:\n a work support having a work support surface, first and second end surfaces extending downwardly from said work support surface, and first and second side surfaces extending downwardly from said work support surface; a first pair of grooves, a first groove of said first pair of grooves formed in said first side surface and a second groove of said first pair of grooves formed in said second side surface and opposite said first groove formed in said first side surface; a second pair of grooves, a first groove of said second pair of grooves formed in said first side surface and a second groove of said second pair of grooves formed in said second side surface and opposite said first groove formed in said second side surface; a first axle slidably supported in said first pair of grooves; a second axle slidably supported in said second pair of grooves; a first leg member supported by and pivotable about said first axle between a folded position wherein said first leg member is folded adjacent said work support surface and a support position wherein said first leg member is disposed downwardly from said work support surface to support said work support structure; a second leg member supported by and pivotable about said second axle between a folded position wherein said second leg member is folded adjacent said work support surface and a support position wherein said second leg member is disposed downwardly from said work support surface to support said work support; a handle extending from one of said end surfaces and slidably disposed relative to said work support between first and second handle positions; a first rack bar including a rack and connected to said first axle; a second rack bar including a rack and connected to both said second axle and said handle; and a pinion gear disposed between and in engagement with said racks; wherein when said handle is moved between the first and second handle positions, said second rack bar moves in a first direction and rotates said pinion gear to cause said first rack bar to move in a second opposite direction, the movement of said first rack bar causing said first axle to slide along said first pair of grooves and the movement of said second rack bar causing said second axle to slide along said second pair of grooves in an opposite direction to thereby cause said first leg member and said second leg member to both pivot towards either the folded position or the support position.
