Workbench (1) for supporting and moving articles comprising a frame (22), a support surface (24) able to tilt relative to the frame (22) and pass from an initial horizontal position into a final inclined position, at least one rigid element (30) hinged with the frame (22) at a pivoting point (P) and having an end portion (36) hinged with the surface (24) and at least one first actuator (44) configured to raise and rotate the surface (24) into an intermediate inclined position. The element (30) is shaped as a rocker arm with the pivoting point (P) arranged between a first wing (32) and a second wing (34) and movement means (54) are provided for rotation of the rocker arm (30) about an axis (X2) so as to move the surface (24) from the intermediate position into the final inclined position. The first actuator (44) comprises a first end (46) hinged with the rocker arm (30) and a second end (48) hinged with the support surface (24).

Systems and methods are provided for delivering a work part to an assembly line worker using a dolly assembly in a first configuration and retrieving the work part from the dolly assembly by the assembly line work while the dolly assembly is in a second configuration. According to some embodiments, a dolly assembly is provided comprising a base assembly having a support member and a mobility mechanism, the support member positioned obliquely with respect to a horizontal plane. The dolly assembly also includes a part-carrying member rotationally connected to the support member and having a part-holding structure for receiving a work part. The part-carrying member extends downward at an angle below the horizontal plane when in a first configuration, and extends upward from at an angle above the horizontal plane when in a second configuration.

A novel adjustable sawhorse or workpiece support. The device is an adjustable apparatus to assist in various carpentry and other projects. The device has a work surface, four legs, and a gear and crank mechanism to allow for height adjustment. The device also includes hinges or pivots beneath the work surface that allow for angular adjustment of the work surface. Further, the device has a fastener to secure the work surface and allow for easy removal or replacement, if necessary.

An apparatus is described that is suitable for mounting in a variety of orientations and for forming a variety of woodworking joints at a high throughput. The apparatus is directed to a tool that couples with a power tool to either plunge into or cross feed through a workpiece. The apparatus is particularly well suited for forming biscuit dado, dado, mortise, tenon, floating tenon, dowel, bridle, half lap, tongue, and groove joints, without requiring significant tool changes.
