도시된 바와 같이 스토퍼(160)는 링 형태로서, 본체(121) 밑면과 하부지지체(125) 사이에 마련되고, 하부지지체(125) 저면에 마련된 돌기(129)와 마주하는 일면에 쇄기(163)가 형성된 리프트(161), 본체(121) 외측을 통해 리프트(161)와 결합되어 리프트(161)를 회전시키는 레버(165)를 포함하여 구성된다.As shown, the stopper 160 has a ring shape and is provided between the bottom of the main body 121 and the lower support 125, and the wedge 163 on one surface facing the protrusion 129 provided on the bottom of the lower support 125. The lift 161 is formed, coupled to the lift 161 through the outside of the main body 121 is configured to include a lever 165 for rotating the lift 161.
이때, 쇄기(163)는 사면으로 이루어진 돌출 영역인 것이며, 레버(165)를 통해 리프트(161)를 회전시키면 돌기(129)가 사면에 가이드 되어, 볼(123)과 밀착되도록 하기 위한 것이며, 이러한 쇄기(163)의 일례로는 도 11a와 같이 절개된 일단이 상향 즉, 스프링 와셔의 형태이거나, 또는 도 11b와 같이 내/외곽 사이 영역을 절곡하여 상향 돌출시킨 형태 내지는 내/외곽 사이 영역에 쇄기와 같은 사면의 부재가 구비된 형태 등 다양하게 존재할 수 있다.At this time, the wedge 163 is a protruding area formed of a slope, and when the lift 161 is rotated through the lever 165, the protrusion 129 is guided to the slope so as to be in close contact with the ball 123. As an example of the wedge 163, one end cut out as shown in FIG. 11A is upward, that is, in the form of a spring washer, or as shown in FIG. It may exist in various forms, such as a form provided with a member of the slope such as a group.
따라서, 레버(165)를 통해 리프트(161)를 회전시키면 쇄기(163)의 사면에 돌기(129)가 가이드되어 하부만곡부(127)가 볼(123)에 밀착되고, 이를 통해 볼(123)의 회전이 제한된다.Accordingly, when the lift 161 is rotated through the lever 165, the protrusion 129 is guided to the slope of the wedge 163 so that the lower curved portion 127 is in close contact with the ball 123, and thus, the ball 123 of the ball 123. Rotation is limited.
한편, 스토퍼(160)는 하부지지체(125)와 볼(123)이 맞닿는 어느 일면에 상호 마찰력을 증가시키는 마찰부(167)를 더 구비될 수 있다.On the other hand, the stopper 160 may be further provided with a friction portion 167 to increase the mutual frictional force on any one surface where the lower support 125 and the ball 123 abuts.
이러한 마찰부(167)는 하부지지체(125) 또는 볼(123) 중 선택되는 적어도 어느 하나의 일면을 거칠게 가공하거나, 표면이 거칠거나 마찰력이 양호한 부재가 부착 내지는 결합하여 하부만곡부(127)와 볼(123) 간의 마찰력을 높여, 볼(123)의 회전이 제한되도록 한다.The friction part 167 roughly processes at least one surface selected from the lower support 125 or the ball 123, or the lower curved part 127 and the ball are attached or combined by a member having a rough surface or a good frictional force. The friction force between the 123 is increased, so that the rotation of the ball 123 is limited.
