ABSTRACT:
A tail stock for a carpet stretcher includes a generally V-shaped body with a pair of intersecting abutting surfaces which form a V-shaped recess with an included angle therebetween. The tail stock is adapted to engage a flat wall, intersecting corner wall surfaces, a center post and includes a floor hook attachment to directly engage the floor. A pair of end sections having front coplanar surfaces extend outwardly from non-intersecting ends of the V-shaped section. A layer of resilient material is disposed on the co-planar and abutting surfaces and includes a plurality of spaced parallel vertically extending ribs. A pair of spaced flanges extend rearwardly from a top and a bottom of the tail stock forming a recessed area therebetween. A pair of aligned holes are formed in the top and bottom flanges for pivotally mounting a tubular end of a carpet stretcher to the tail stock. A second set of aligned holes are formed in the top and bottom flanges for receiving a stabilizing pin which restricts the pivotal movement of the tubular member with respect to the tail stock. A pair of wheels are rotatably mounted on a bottom of the tail stock to allow the tail stock to be selectively moved along the wall or around a center post or corner. The floor hook attachment is removably secured within the V-shaped recess and includes an outwardly extending claw having a downwardly extending pointed end for directly engaging the carpet and floor board thereunder.
