Abstract

A base support for an examination/treatment chair permits lateral movement of the chair relative to a support for medical instruments and comprises a top plate laterally movable on wheel assemblies relative to a fixed bottom plate. A locking assembly interposed between the top and bottom plates includes a foot operated pivot arm which mounts a locking pin movable within a guide bore formed in the top plate and into a selected aperture formed in the bottom plate to adjust the position of the top plate, and in turn, the chair, relative to the bottom plate.
