(54) | Equipment leveling pad assembly and kit |
(57) An equipment leveling pad assembly (10) has a pad (12) and a stud (14). The pad (12)
defines a recess (30) which has at its entry end an inwardly extending lip (40) past
which a ball head (18) of the stud (14) may be snapped to establish a swivel connection
between the stud (14) and pad (12). The recess (30) below the lip (40) is larger in
diameter than the ball head (18), and the ball head (18) rests against solid material
to transfer the load to the bottom of the pad (12). The pad (12) may be made in one
piece of a relatively elastic material, or may include a foot (28) of an inelastic
material such as metal with a relatively elastic cover (50) defining the lip (40')
and secured to the metal foot (28). |
