ABSTRACT:
The present invention is directed to a foot and levelling mechanism (10) for attachment to successive, vertical frame members (13) in a relocatable wall (11). The foot and levelling mechanism (10) includes a first anchor block (50) secured to one of the successive, vertical frame members (13). The first anchor block (50) presents a downwardly directed wedging surface (60). A second anchor block (50) is secured to the vertical frame member (13) other of the successive wall panel assemblies. The second anchor block (50) also presents a downwardly directed wedging surface (60). A leveller housing (30) presents upwardly directed guide surfaces (38 and 39) to engage the wedging surfaces (60) on the first and second anchor blocks (50). An extensible foot assembly (43) extends downwardly from the leveller housing (30). The extensible foot assembly (43) includes a shaft portion (44) with a foot pad (46) attached to the shaft portion (44). The shaft portion (44) is adapted to be protracted and retracted into the leveller housing (30) in order to establish the vertical disposition of the leveller housing (30), and thus the relocatable wall (11) relative to the surface upon which the floor engaging surface (48) of the foot pad (46) rests.
