  • Lazy susan assembly having a rotational and vertical adjustment mechanism
    Patent number: 4433885
    Abstract: A lazy susan (24) including a shaft (30) supported for rotation about a vertical axis within an L-shaped cabinet (10) is provided with a rotary catch mechanism (40) which maintains the shaft at a selected rotary position relative to the cabinet (10). The catch mechanism (40) includes a cam (44) and follower (42) which maintain the shaft (30) in the selected rotary position. The follower (42) is provided with means for adjusting its angular position so as to change the orientation of the follower (42) with respect to the cabinet (10) and thus adjust the position of the shaft (30) and attached door (22a-b) relative to the cabinet (10). The follower (42) is adjusted by an eccentric (70) mounted for rotation with the follower (42) so that upon rotation of the eccentric (70), the follower (42) is likewise rotated to change its position relative to the cabinet (10).
