Retainer which can be fastened to a stand

Abstract

The invention relates to a retainer which can be fastened to a stand (1), having two jaws (2) which enclose the stand (1) in a clip-like manner and are guided displaceably relative to one another perpendicularly to their butt face (3) and, on the ends forming the butt faces (3), have connecting shoulders (4) which are opposite one another in pairs. In order to create advantageous design conditions, it is proposed that the connecting shoulders (4) form, on the side thereof facing away from the butt face (3), wedge faces (5) extending inclined relative to each other and each interact with a clamping shoe (8) surrounding the wedge-shaped connecting shoulders (4) in a wedge-shaped socket (9), and that the two jaws (2) each comprise, on the inside thereof, a guide ridge (6) which protrudes beyond the butt face (3) towards the other jaw (2) and engages in a guide groove (7) of the other jaw (2).

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
