DEFINITION

Classification: 269/167

(under subclass 166) Device wherein two relatively adjustable subassemblies or elements are locked together by skewing a third discrete binding element.

(1) Note. This third binding element is either (a) fastened to one of the subassemblies and thus immobilizes said subassembly as the element binds on the other or (b) interposed between portions of said subassemblies to act as an abutment stop when the binding element is manipulated to friction engage.

(2) Note. The discrete binding element may comprise a plurality of separate cant members.

(3) Note. In the illustration shown below elements 2 are canted with respect to bar 1 to lock the position of jaw 3.
