The leg members are foldable at intermediate portions thereof such that the intermediate portions can move apart from each other. A connecting section is attached to the bottom ends of the two leg members to connect them together. A post having at least one prong is mounted on the connecting section and extends upward toward the base plate such that when the leg members are folded, at least a portion of the post extends through the aperture in the base plate and the hole in the carpet. The post also has means for maintaining the leg members in a folded state so that the post extends through the aperture in the base plate.
