Abstract: |
A turntable is disclosed for supporting a plurality of types and sizes of bowls in such a manner that the axis of rotation of the turntable and the center line of the bowl are substantially coincident. The turntable includes one or more concentric grooves which are proportioned to mate with the feet of one type of bowl which may be supported on the turntable. A second type of bowl which may have a smooth or flat bottom is retained on the turntable by a plurality of selectively adjustable retaining members which contact an outer edge of the bowl and maintain the bowl's alignment on the turntable. The selectively adjustable members may be retained in the selected position by any convenient means such as detents. In one embodiment the members are triangular shaped wedges which may be selectively pivoted between first and second positions for retaining smooth bottomed bowls of first and second different diameters, respectively.
