ABSTRACT:
A device for stabilizing or leveling an article of furniture is formed of a deformable outer envelope enclosing a second elastically deformable envelope that is substantially filled with a filler material of a plurality of bead-like particles. The filler material particles, which are preferably smooth-surface glass beads, provide fluidic flowability of the filler material so that, when the stabilizing device is inserted and pressed between an underlying support surface and the lower support structure of an article of furniture to fill a space or gap otherwise present between the support structure and support surface, the inner envelope resiliently deforms to accommodate the redistribution of the particles and dynamically fill the gap, thus stabilizing the article of furniture on the support surface.
