ABSTRACT:
A worklight with head mounted on a stand that uses a hands-free mounting system that enables the lamp head to be tilted in different fixed angles without manually loosening and tightening knobs and nuts. The mounting system includes at least one nut body mounted or attached on the surface of the lamp head. The nut body includes a central post with a threaded bore surrounded by a plurality of radially aligned beveled ribs. The ribs are aligned parallel to the nut's longitudinally axis and are equally spaced apart thereby forming a plurality of slots surrounding the post. The post is slightly shorter than the surrounding ribs. The slots on one side of the nut body are aligned with slots located on the opposite side of the nut body. The stand includes at least one support arm with a straight portion. The outside surface of the straight portion has a diameter sufficient so that the inside surface of the straight portion rests in the two slots located on opposite sides of the nut body. The outer edges of the support arm are pressed inside by springs against the outer surfaces of the ribs.
