DEFINITION

Classification: 401/105

(under subclass 104) Implement wherein the fastener has a surface confronting an exterior wall portion of the implement to define therebetween a passage for receiving the support and wherein the passage, or the entrance thereto, is substantially closed when the tool is moved to the operative position and is substantially unobstructed when the tool is retracted.

(1) Note. This subclass will take a patent for an implement which includes latch means to prevent movement of the tool to the concealed, inoperative position, which latch means includes a movable latch component which shifts outward of the exterior wall portion of the implement to block the support-receiving passage of the fastener when the tool is exposed.
