by applying force to the bolt head andf orcing the squared end of said bolt to turn on said flat surface of the notch 11 in1clamp 6.
The Width of plate 3 is such that the clamps 6 .i'vill slope outwardly toward the base of the rail, thus effectively preventing a side- Wise motion of the rail. W hen bolt -lo'ck'lti is turned outwardly a suflicient distance to allow the square end thereof'to clear the outer edge of the notch 11 inc lamp" 6, the same will. allow the locking-bar 12 todrop" back to the lower ends of clamps 6 when l.
