ABSTRACT:
The device maintains a particular spacing, chosen from a selection of available spacings, between an item and a wall-like surface. The device comprises a single piece of rigid, preferably clear material having top and bottom surfaces which are parallel to each other and perpendicular to the sides. The perimeter is substantially curvilinear, and asymmetric. There are pairs of parallel sides, each side having an incurvate void of varying depth between disparate arms. Abutment surfaces for spacing exist on the sides. Spacing is defined by the distance between the abutment surface on the incurvate void of one side of a pair of parallel sides and the abutment surfaces on the arms on the opposite side of the same pair of parallel sides. Inverting the sides accesses a new spacing. Functional symbols are affixed to the top surface facilitating easy installation. Used in pairs, this device is effective for separating a furniture item from a wall-like surface. No additional hardware is required.
