According to the balancing mechanism, in its most basic form, it balances the vertical load of a table or chair. The main foot body (10) carrying the main foot body (10) contacts the ground at the lower end of the main foot body (10). The balancing plate (20) is hinged at the lower end of the main leg body (10). The connecting bed (30) into which the table or chair is placed Limited angular range to correspond to local slopes or surface irregularities in the ground. by moving, the leveling plate (20) is placed on the ground completely and evenly. The spherical joint element (40) that enables it to sit is on top of the balancing plate (20). and located under the global joint element (40) and the global joint element 15 (40) by keeping the balancing plate (20) on the ground under constant downward force. The suppressing balance spring (50) is located inside the hinged bearing (30) and limiting the movement of the spherical joint (40) after a certain angle, the main leg It contains an angle limiting circle (60) which prevents the body (10) from angling excessively. The balancing mechanism described in this invention is used for tables in cafes, restaurants, and similar establishments. and the floor on the table or chair legs during the use of chairs formed due to slope, surface difference or changes in the center of the load It eliminates imbalances. Accordingly, the table or chair A 25 is attached to the lower end of the main leg body (10) that carries the vertical load, in contact with the ground. A leveling plate (20) is installed. The said leveling plate (20) is placed on the table or depending on the local slope or surface irregularities of the floor where the chair is placed In order to be positioned, it is rigidly attached directly to the main leg body (10) unattached, hinged connection located at the lower end of the main leg body (10) spherical joint element (40) capable of limited angular movement within the bed (30) 30 It is configured to be transported over. The spherical joint element (40) is articulated at the lower end of the main foot body (10). Balancing by performing limited angular movement in two axes within the connecting bearing (30) This ensures that the plate (20) sits perfectly and evenly on the ground. This angular 35 movement in response to slope or surface irregularities in the ground This happens and thus the main foot body (10) maintains its upright position while balancing plate (20) is placed at an angle compatible with the ground. There is a gap between the lower surface of the spherical joint element (40) and the balancing plate (20). The balancing spring (50) is positioned. The balancing spring (50) is spherical 5 balancing by keeping the joint element (40) under constant downward force. It ensures that the plate (20) is pressed down on the ground. In this way, the table or chair the foot provides a stable contact surface despite slight slopes and surface variations on the ground. It obtains. On the lower surface of the leveling plate (20) that contacts the ground, there must be at least one anti-slip It has a non-slip pad. The spherical joint element (40) makes an excessive angular movement and the articulated joint bearing (30) going outside or the structural integrity of the balancing mechanism 15 To prevent damage, an angle limiting mechanism is placed inside the hinged bearing (30). The circle (60) is placed. The angle limiting circle (60) is the spherical joint element.
