Abstract

A supporter includes an upper portion including a load receiver on which a projection projecting downward from a supported body is to be mounted and which receives a load of the supported body. The supporter includes a lower portion to be provided on a floor surface and on which the upper portion is to be mounted. The upper portion includes, in a center portion thereof in a plan view, a first flexure that bends downward under the load of the supported body received by the load receiver. The lower portion includes a second flexure that bends downward when pressed by the first flexure bending downward. In the supporter, a sliding region in which the first flexure being bent downward and the second flexure being bent downward as pressed by the first flexure can slide on each other is defined by the load receiver having received the load of the supported body.
