<p>The invention relates to a support or spacer device for underneath or behind an object such as a piece of furniture or painting. The device has a contact surface for making contact with the background supporting the object, with the feature that the support or spacer is covered with protrusions whose size and shape can be adapted according to its intended use. The support as depicted in the attached drawing concems a furniture castor application, which can be applied either in addition to or independently of contemporary state of the art techniques. The support pictured in this version has a large, hexagonal plane, upon which protrusions are mounted in a triangular matrix pattern. The accompanying mounting spike also forms part of the complete support construction, and the support can also have a sticking strip mounted on it to optimise ease of use. The support depicted is intended to be an addition to the well-known furniture castor, with a principal difference being that the support is equipped with protrusions which penetrate the pile of a carpet with the advantage that when so used the support leaves practically no imprint behind on the carpet.</p> |
