ABSTRACT:
A dolly includes an elongated rigid support member for receiving a lower end portion of a panel-shaped support leg of an upright piano. The support member is formed by an elongated bottom wall and a pair of side walls rigidly connected along opposite longitudinal side edges of the bottom wall and extending upwardly therefrom so as to define an elongated channel extending between the spaced side walls and above the bottom wall of the support member. The channel is open along its upper end to receive the lower end portion of the support leg of the upright piano. The dolly also includes a pair of carriages supporting the opposite ends of the support member. The dolly further includes a releasable frictional securement device mounted to one of the side walls of the support member and having a semi-flexible flat band disposed along the interior of a portion of the one side wall of the support member and attached thereto at one end of the band, and a thumb screw having a stem threadably mounted through a threaded aperture in the one side wall for engaging an opposite end of the band at an inner end of threaded stem. The thumb screw also has a finger grip head attached to an outer end of the threaded stem for turning the stem to force the band into frictional contact with a surface of the support leg and secure the dolly thereto.
