A47B91/02
Domestic appliance
A household appliance includes a housing, height-adjustable levelling feet arranged on an underside of the housing, and height-adjusting devices for adjusting a height of the leveling feet, respectively. Each height-adjusting device includes an adjustment housing fixed to the housing, a threaded shaft passing vertically through the adjustment housing in an interlocking manner and including a foot plate, a worm wheel as an output gear at an outer circumference thereof which is mounted rotatably in the adjustment housing and threadably engaged with the threaded shaft, and a worm connected to an adjusting rod and forming a drive gear for driving the worm wheel. The threaded shaft can have along a length thereof a flattened section which rests against the adjustment housing at one point at least, or two flattened sections arranged on opposite sides of the threaded shaft, or two axially extending grooves arranged on opposite sides of the threaded shaft.
Multi-purpose portable platform stage
Described herein is a multi-purpose portable platform stage for elevating a platform of the stage over a surface on which the stage is placed, that can be converted by a single person individually without assistance from an operational configuration in which one or more persons can stand, move and operate on the platform without the platform collapsing, and in which one or more objects can be placed and used on the platform, by or without such persons, without the platform collapsing, to a portable configuration in which the single person can carry the stage individually without assistance.
ADJUSTABLE LEVELLING PAD
An adjustable levelling pad includes a first component provided with first screw threads, a second component provided with second screw threads cooperating with the first screw threads of the first component and a bearing element having a bearing surface cooperating with the first component. The second component has an upper surface having an inclined surface portion, the inclined surface portion being inclined in the radial outward direction at an angle relative to an axis perpendicular to the axis of elevation of the adjustable pad.
FURNITURE FOOT WITH INTEGRATED SLIDE MECHANISM
Various aspects of the present disclosure are directed to adjustable chairs with a plurality of adjustment points to facilitate enhanced user mobility and increase a user's physical activity through guided exercises and stretches. In one example embodiment, a chair is disclosed including a lifting mechanism to assist a user from a seating to a standing position and facilitates standing stretches through a number of motion and rotation mechanisms.
Telescopic foot for furniture and/or furnishing items with simplified assembly and system using said foot
A telescopic foot for furniture and/or furnishing items includes a hollow body housing a supporting foot designed for telescopically sliding therein using an internal control or kinematic mechanism, which is actuated by a control transmission bevel gear positioned between a first actuation opening of the bevel gear and a second telescopically sliding opening of the supporting foot, both defined in the body of the foot, one laterally and the other one axially and in orthogonal positions to each other, so as to each receive an element of the bevel gear. Sliding elements enable the sliding of the supporting foot with respect to the body of the foot, and engagement and retention elements engage the supporting foot and the hollow body of the foot.
Table glide spacer
A table leg assembly for supporting a table top. The table leg assembly includes a leg member having a lower end that defines an open interior. A tube end insert is received within the open interior at the lower end of each of the leg members. A threaded internal opening of the tube end insert receives an attachment rod of either a caster wheel assembly or a glide assembly. The glide assembly includes a glide member having a support foot mounted to the threaded attachment rod. A spacer is positioned along the attachment rod between the lower end of the leg member and the support foot. The spacer is movable along the attachment rod to cover the threaded attachment rod and lock the glide member in position. The attachment rod of the caster wheel assembly is received within the tube end insert to mount the caster wheel assembly to the leg member.
Refrigerator cabinet
A foot is connected to the bottom wall of a refrigeration cabinet. The foot is selectively movable relative to the bottom wall to adjust a vertical position of the foot with respect to the bottom wall. The bottom wall provides access to the foot from within the interior of the cabinet to allow a user to selectively move the foot to adjust the vertical position of the foot with respect to the bottom wall. A floor glide is connected to the bottom wall and initially protrudes downward from the bottom wall beyond the foot. The floor glide enables the cabinet to slide along a support surface to a deployment position so then the foot can be lowered to support the cabinet at the deployment position on the foot.
Stabilizing device for a piece of furniture or a device
A stabilizing device for a piece of furniture including a housing with a piston opening, and a piston element mounted movably within the housing and moveable at least partly out of the piston opening for engagement with a supporting surface. The stabilizing device further includes an actuator, including a motor, connected to the piston element for actuating a movement of the piston. A control unit connected to the actuator for control of the actuation of the piston element, and at least one first sensor capable of measuring the load on the motor. The at least one first sensor device is connected to the control unit such that the movement of the piston element can be controlled based on input from the first sensor.

Millwork leveler
The present disclosure provides systems, components, and methods for leveling millwork. In one or more implementations, a millwork leveling device and/or kit for leveling millwork include a track, a first leveling post, and a second leveling post. The leveling posts are movably positionable along the track. The first leveling post has a first adjustable height and the second leveling post has a second adjustable height. The device and/or kit may further include a plate associated with the first leveling post, the plate having one or more through holes and attaching a finishing piece thereto.
