DEFINITION

Classification: 119/747

Pivotally connected near bottom and vertical centerline of stanchion:

(under subclass 744) Subject matter wherein the swinging upright shaft swings about an axis which is both close to the lower end of the other upright member and is located approximately midway between the swinging upright shaft and the other upright member.

(1) Note. The upright stanchion members usually have a relatively horizontal portion integral with, or fixedly attached to, their bottoms so that they can remain upright in use and still be pivotally connected near both their bottoms and the vertical centerline of the stanchion. If both bars pivot, they need not share a common axis of rotation as long as the axes are near each other and the vertical centerline of the stanchion.

SEE OR SEARCH THIS CLASS, SUBCLASS:

742, for a multiple stanchion arrangement which has a

stanchion which is actuated by a longitudinally slidable actuating mechanism and which has a bottom- pivoted upright stanchion bar which pivots near the vertical centerline of the stanchion.
