Abstract

See full text

A lazy susan device (160) includes a centralized support pole (162) with an upper tube (164) and a lower tube (166). In one embodiment, a length adjustment mechanism (168) includes an expansion nut (172) and a threaded insert (170). Rotation of the upper tube (162) causes the expansion nut (172) to expand outwardly as the upper tube (164) is rotated. The expansion nut (172) moves away from the upper tube (164). In this matter, the effective length of the support pole (162) is lengthened. This and other embodiments of the lazy susan devices provide for installation and adjustment of the lazy susan devices in the absence of the need of any tooling.
