Patent ID: 7866096

Claim:
An adjustable pedestal adapted to support panel members of an elevated floor structure comprising: a height adjustable support structure including a base and a head assembly, the base defining a plane on which the support structure stands in use, said head assembly including: a head member; and a slope adjustment plate, wherein the head member defines a first part-spherical, surface having a first radius of curvature, and the slope adjustment plate has a first face defining a planar area and an opposite face defining a second part-spherical, surface having substantially the same radius of curvature as the first surface, and wherein the second part spherical surface may be supported on the first part spherical surface, with relative movement of the second part-spherical surface on the first part-spherical surface adjusting the angle of the planar portion of the adjustment plate relative to the plane of the base, wherein the slope adjustment plate defines at least one depending peg and the head member defines an array of holes for receiving the peg and which extend about the center of the top surface of the head member for fixing the slope adjustment plate relative to the head member in two or more different relative orientations.
