At its other end the rod a is formed with a longitudinal slot or recess `@terminating at its inner end in a beveled or inclined stop shoulder z'. In this slot or recess is pivoted on a cross pin j, a stop and releasing member or arm 7o, which is .formed at its pivoted end with a: laterally, inwardly and downwardly inclined or curved spur Z, adapted l by engagement with the stop shoulder z', as shown in Fig. 2, to limit the downwardY and'backward movement of said member or arm.` e e A shoulder Or projection m, formed on the pivoted end of the member or `arm 7c,
