Title: Adjustable leg
Inventor: MACKENZIE KEN
IPC: B66F3/08
Filed: 2009-07-10
Abstract: An adjustable leg includes a foot assembly, a leg assembly, a tube assembly and a rod assembly. The foot assembly is coupled to the leg assembly. The rod assembly is rotatably coupled to the tube assembly. The rod assembly is threaded through an aperture in the leg assembly and the tube assembly.
