Class Information
Number: 248/525
Name: Supports > Staff type > Stand or base > Having staff retaining or centering means > Plural means, vertically spaced > Including pivoted, staff-engaging supporting legs
Description: Support wherein one of the retaining or centering means comprises a plurality of legs which are pivotably attached to the device and support it in elevated relation to the generally horizontal surface. Except in the rare instances where there are more than two retaining or centering means, the pivoted legs constitute the upper one of the means. Pivotable movement of a leg about its axis, which axis usually is horizontal, causes its upper portion to move into or out of engagement with the staff, and tooth-like structure frequently is provided on the staff-contacting area of the upper portion for the purpose of enhancing its grip on the staff.
