DEFINITION

Classification: 24/505

With position locking-means for gripping members:

(under subclass 500) Clasp*, clip*, or support-clamp* provided with locking-means* which (a) prevents the separation of the swinging gripping member from the opposed gripping member while holding the relative position therebetween and (b) never directly contacts and grasps the struc-ture-to-be-secured* (i.e., is not itself a gripping surface).
