Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] This invention relates to a scaffold device, and more specifically, to an adjustable scaffold device to be suspended from a top of a wall. [0002] Scaffolds are devices that are used to allow workmen to work at various heights or locations when constructing a building. For example, scaffolding may consist of an elaborate formation of posts, rods, connectors, and planks with the planks used to support one or more workers along a horizontal work surface. Scaffolds are used instead of ladders and provide a platform on which a worker may safely stand for constructing the building or structure. Although such scaffolding is useful, it takes a large amount of time to construct at the jobsite and remove the scaffolding from the jobsite. In order to solve this problem, there have been developed or proposed various scaffold devices or brackets that are used to assemble scaffolding at a jobsite. Some of these scaffold devices are collapsible or folded into a f...
