BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Various types of creepers are known in the prior art. However, what has been needed is a creeper for underneath an automobile dashboard including a platform, a pair of wheels having a right wheel and a left wheel, and a vertical support. What has also been needed is for the pair of wheels to be disposed on a bottom surface of the platform proximal the front surface, with each of the right wheel and the left wheel disposed proximal a right surface and a left surface, respectively. Lastly, what has been needed is for the vertical support to be continuously disposed on the bottom surface of the platform from proximal the right surface to proximal the left surface. The platform has a width that substantially conforms to a length of a footwell in a front seat of an automobile. The creeper for underneath an automobile dashboard thus allows a user to secure the vertical support and a section of the platform within a footwell of an automobile so that the user can easily and comfortably perform work under the dashboard of the automobile while lying on the platform.

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to creepers, and more particularly, to a creeper for underneath an automobile dashboard.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The general purpose of the present creeper for underneath an automobile dashboard, described subsequently in greater detail, is to provide a creeper which has many novel features that result in a creeper for underneath an automobile dashboard which is not anticipated, rendered obvious, suggested, or even implied by prior art, either alone or in combination thereof.

To accomplish this, the present creeper for underneath an automobile dashboard has a platform having a right surface, a left surface, a front surface, a back surface, a top surface, and a bottom surface. A pair of wheels having a right wheel and a left wheel is disposed on the bottom surface of the platform proximal the front surface. Each of the right wheel and the left wheel is disposed proximal the right surface and the left surface, respectively. A vertical support is continuously disposed on the bottom surface of the platform from proximal the right surface to proximal the left surface. The vertical support is disposed proximal the back surface. The vertical support and the platform are perpendicularly disposed. A width of the platform substantially conforms to a length of a footwell in a front seat of an automobile. The vertical support is configured to engage the footwell of the automobile to allow a user to lie atop the platform while performing work on a dashboard of the automobile.

The vertical support can optionally be wood. The vertical support can also optionally be metal.

Thus has been broadly outlined the more important features of the present creeper for underneath an automobile dashboard so that the detailed description thereof that follows may be better understood and in order that the present contribution to the art may be better appreciated.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

With reference now to the drawings, and in particular FIGS. 1 through 5 thereof, an example of the instant creeper for underneath an automobile dashboard employing the principles and concepts of the present creeper for underneath an automobile dashboard and generally designated by the reference number 10 will be described.

Referring to FIGS. 1 through 5 the present creeper for underneath an automobile dashboard 10 is illustrated. The creeper for underneath an automobile dashboard 10 has a platform 20 having a right surface 22, a left surface 24, a front surface 26, a back surface 28, a top surface 30, and a bottom surface 32. A pair of wheels 34 having a right wheel 36 and a left wheel 38 is disposed on the bottom surface 32 of the platform 20 adjacent to the front surface 26. Each of the right wheel 36 and the left wheel 38 is disposed proximal the right surface 22 and the left surface 24, respectively. A vertical support 40 is continuously disposed on the bottom surface 32 of the platform 20 from proximal the right surface 22 to proximal the left surface 24. The vertical support 40 is disposed proximal the back surface 28. The vertical support 40 and the platform 20 are perpendicularly disposed. As best shown in FIG. 3, a length of the vertical support 40 is less than a width of the platform 20.
