Adjustable scaffold assembly

Abstract

An adjustable scaffold assembly includes a pair of vertical supports. A pair of hand rails is provided. Each of the hand rails is telescopic and has an adjustable length. A plurality of retainers couples the hand rails between the vertical supports. A pair of horizontal supports is provided. Each of the horizontal supports is coupled between the vertical supports. Each of the horizontal supports has an adjustable length to selectively alter a distance between the vertical supports. A walkway is mounted on and extends between the vertical supports. The walkway may support a person between the vertical supports. A plurality of wheels is provided. Each of the vertical supports has a bottom end. The wheels are rotatably coupled to the bottom ends to facilitate movement of the vertical supports.

         8 . The assembly according to  claim 2 , wherein said walkway including a frame including a pair of lateral supports being laterally spaced from each other and oriented parallel to each other, each of said lateral supports having a free end, each of said lateral supports being telescopic and selectively adjustable, each of said lateral supports having a free end comprising a coupler to releasably engage a selected one of said rods. 
     
     
         9 . The assembly according to  claim 8 , further comprising a platform being positioned on said frame and extending between said lateral supports, said platform having a selectively adjustable length, said platform having a pair of lateral edges, each of said lateral edges extending beyond an adjacent one of said lateral supports and extending over one of said horizontal supports such that said platform is supported by said frame and said horizontal supports. 
     
     
         10 . An adjustable scaffold assembly comprising:
 a pair of vertical supports, each of said vertical supports including:
 a first leg and a second leg each being vertically oriented; 
 a plurality of rods, each of said rods extending between and being attached to said first and second legs, said rods being vertically spaced from each other and horizontally oriented;
