Foot Cup

Foot Cup — Product Introduction

The foot cup (also known as leveling foot or adjustable foot) is a support component that achieves height adjustment through a threaded structure. It is primarily used to solve height, leveling, and tilt adjustment problems for equipment feet. The YJT 13009 is a specific model in the foot cup product range, classified as an assembly product, typically consisting of a lead screw, base, and lock nut. Its core function is to precisely adjust equipment height by rotating the lead screw, keeping equipment level on uneven floors while providing stable support and a degree of vibration damping.

I. Product Features

• Wide specification coverage: Base diameters are available in options such as 60 mm, 80 mm, and 100 mm; stem specifications cover M10, M12, M14, M16, M18, M20, and M24; stem lengths range from 60 mm to 150 mm.
• Flexible material options: Common materials include 304 stainless steel and carbon steel with zinc plating; the stainless steel version offers excellent corrosion resistance, suitable for humid or corrosion-demanding environments.
• Swivel leveling capability: Some foot cup bases adopt a ball-joint structure, allowing the stem to pivot within a certain angular range (typically up to 20°–30°), keeping equipment level even on tilted surfaces.
• Threaded height adjustment: Equipment height can be steplessly adjusted by rotating the lead screw; a hex nut is usually integrated onto the stem for wrench tightening and secure locking.
• Base pad options: The base can be equipped with rubber pads, nylon pads, or anti-static pads to meet different floor protection and anti-slip requirements.

II. Product Advantages

• Quick and efficient leveling: No complex tools are needed — simply rotate the lead screw to precisely adjust equipment height, rapidly solving晃动 or tilt problems caused by uneven floors.
• Reliable load capacity: Different specifications provide load capacities ranging from tens of kilograms to hundreds of kilograms; certain sizes in the YJT 13009 series achieve static loads up to 500 kg or even 800 kg, meeting heavy-duty equipment requirements.
• Adaptable to uneven surfaces: The swivel leveling structure enables the foot cup to provide stable support on tilted or slightly uneven floors, ensuring smooth equipment operation.
• Protects floors and equipment: Rubber or nylon bases reduce floor scratching and damage while providing vibration damping and buffering, lowering vibration transmission from equipment.
• Easy installation and maintenance: The foot cup is installed by simply threading the lead screw into the threaded hole at the equipment base; removal and replacement are also highly convenient.

III. Application Scope

• Machine tools and industrial machinery: Leveling and vibration-damping support for punching machines, presses, CNC machine tools, textile machinery, printing presses, packaging machinery, etc.
• Automation and production line equipment: Applications requiring quick leveling and mobility, such as flexible rail workstations, conveyor lines, and assembly lines.
• Storage and shelving systems: Storage racks, display cabinets, shelving units, and other facilities that require stable support and easy adjustment.
• Medical equipment and instruments: Medical devices, testing instruments, and laboratory benches with high requirements for levelness and vibration damping.
• Food and chemical equipment: Stainless steel foot cups are suitable for food machinery, chemical equipment, and other applications with corrosion and rust resistance requirements.
• General industry and furniture: Support and leveling for various industrial equipment bases, office furniture, fitness equipment, etc.
