ABSTRACT:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The invention relates to worklights. More specifically, the invention relates to a worklight that may function as both a portable floor-type worklight and as a portable stand light.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Portable halogen worklights are often sold in two types of configurations. The first are floor-type models that are often supported on a small stand or legs that elevate the light housing a few inches off of the support surface. The other version are stand-type of lights. These lights use a stand to elevate the light housing several feet off of the ground. However, it would be beneficial, and more economical, to have a light that may function as both a floor-type model and as an elevated stand light.
The present invention provides a dual purpose light that may be configured for both types of uses. The present invention provides a light stand which has a threaded post on its terminal end that is adapted to receive a light housing having a pair of pivotal support legs. When the leg are in an open position, they support the light housing on a floor or support surface. When in a closed position, the legs are co-extensively arranged with a common aperture that accepts the post on the stand for affixing the light housing to the stand.
