FURNITURE GLIDE

摘要

A glide (50) for use in an opened ended chair leg of a table chair used with a table having a tabletop and at least one support pedestal on a support base. The glide includes an elongated wear resistant body (52) constructed from a material such as nylon having an upper segment (54) and a lower segment (56), with the upper segment dimensioned to fit within the open end of the chair leg in a snug interference fit. The lower segment (56) has an axial length terminating in a floor-engaging surface (58). The floor-engaging surface has a rounded configuration so as to limit the contact area between the glide (50) and the floor to reduce friction. There is a spring clip (62) on the upper segment for securing the glide (50) in the open end of the table leg. The length of the lower segment (56) of the glide body is of an appropriate height so that the lower segment (56) of the glide contacts the support base when the chair is placed in contact with the table to prevent damage to the table leg.
