Abstract
An apparatus for leveling various level sensitive devices. The leveler including a base and a tray supported on the extensible lift rods of three leveling pods. The leveling pods are responsive to the rotation of three handles located on the front side of the base for raising and lowering tray in relation to the base. The tray is biased against the lift rods by a set of four springs and carries three sight glasses for determining the tray's level position. The base has end openings for ready access to the leveling pods. The base also includes suction cups for mounting the leveler to a countertop.
Claims23
An apparatus for leveling a level sensitive device comprising:
- a base including side walls and end walls, tray means spaced vertically above said base, means mounted to said base and engaging said tray means for leveling said tray means relative to said base, means carried by one of said side walls for actuating said leveling means, and spring means connected between said tray means and said base means for biasing said tray means against said leveling means.
A leveling apparatus for leveling a level sensitive device and carried atop a substantially flat surface, said leveling apparatus comprising:
- a base mounted to said surface including side and end walls, tray means spaced vertically above said base, means connected to said base and engaging said tray means for leveling the position of said tray means relative to said base, means carried by one of said side walls for actuating said leveling means, spring means connected to said tray and said base for biasing said tray means against said leveling means, and means for securing said base to said surface.
A leveling apparatus carried atop a substantially flat surface for leveling a level sensitive device comprising:
- a base including side walls and end walls,
- a tray spaced vertically above said base,
- three leveling pods disposed within said base in a triangular orientation, each leveling pod including a vertically extensible lift rod operatively connected to said tray and a drive shaft, said lift rod engaging said tray means and being responsive to rotation of said drive shaft,
- a rotatable handle part operatively connected to said drive shaft of each leveling pod, and
- a spring connected at one end to said base and at the other end to said tray.
