Saw horse

Claim 1

A saw horse construction comprising a. a horizontally elongated and relatively narrow work beam, and b. first and second like support members for the beam, c. each support member comprising elongated tubing defining a transverse base and two legs extending upwardly from the base, the legs having upper end portions with pivotal first connection to the work beam to accommodate pivoting of the support member relative to the beam and bringing the base into adjacency to the beam, d. said base and legs of each support member having triangular configuration, said support member comprising only a Δ shaped single and continuous elongated metallic tube defining folded bends between said base and legs, said leg upper end portions defined by flattened upper terminals of the tubing which engage and guide against the beam opposite sides during said pivoting, the support members having collapsed positions relative to the beam and in which their bases extend, respectively closely above and closely below the beam, said flattened upper end portions extending substantially entirely adjacent the beam sides in said collapsed positions of the support members, e. said leg flattened upper end portions of each support member also having releasable second connection with the beam to block said pivoting and to retain the support member extending downwardly and longitudinally relative to the beam in beam supporting position, each releasable second connection defined by a removable fastener extending transversely through the beam and through said flattened upper terminals and proximate the pivotal connection of the member to the beam, said second connection spaced from the first connection in the general direction of elongation of the associated leg, f. said first and second connections being the only connections of the legs to the beam.
