Abstract of the Disclosure A portable carpet stretching device in accordance with this invention enables a user to stretch carpeting at an angle into engagement with a tack strip affixed along the base of an adjacent wall, thus to eliminate wrinkles. Our novel device comprises a carpet-engaging head member and a relatively fixed base member. The front of the base member is attached by an extensible member to the rear of the head member, and anchoring means are utilized for securing the base member with its front portion in a fixed relationship to the adjacent wall. Power applying means are provided for enabling the user to force the head member and the base member apart, so the anchoring of the base member with respect to the adjacent wall by the anchoring means results at the time of application of the power means, in the portion of the carpet engaged by the head member bring forced toward the adjacent wall and into contact with the tack strip. The anchoring means forming the principal subject matter of this invention comprises a pulling plate having a lower edge adapted to engage the tack strip. The upper edge of the pulling plate is pivotally connected to the base member, with this pivotal connection enabling said the head member to be moved into a non-symmetrical relationship to the pulling plate, whereby a pull at an angle to the adjacent wall can be applied to the carpet when the power applying means is operated.
