Abstract

Movable pipe supports are described herein. A movable pipe support can include a pipe support apparatus body having a slot sized to accommodate a first end of a lever arm positioned such that it extends through the slot, a pipe support structure attached to the first end of the lever arm and having an outer surface for contacting an outer surface of the pipe, and a pivot mechanism to allow the outer surface of the pipe support structure to continue to be in contact with the outer surface of the pipe while the pivot mechanism moves the outer surface of the pipe support structure along the outer surface of the pipe.
