Positioning pivot

A friction adjustable positioning pivot comprising:

• a first shaft including a tapering threaded rod which defines a hollow space therein and a slot along a periphery thereof;
• an urging tube including an inner threaded tapering periphery for rotatably threading onto the tapering threaded rod of the first shaft;
• an inner tube made of elastic material defining a longitudinal slot through two distal ends thereof and received in the hollow space of the first shaft and including an outer periphery substantially in contact with an inner periphery of the hollow space of the first shaft and an inner periphery;
• a second shaft having a rod portion received in the inner tube and in contact with the inner periphery of the inner tube;
• whereby the first shaft and the second shaft are rotatably retained at an angle due to friction resulting from the inner tube against the inner periphery of the tapering threaded rod of the first shaft and the rod portion of the second shaft, whereby the urging tube is allowed to be manually threaded onto the tapering threaded rod of the first shaft thus tightening the tapering threaded rod of the first shaft, which in turn tightens the inner tube in a radial direction thereby increasing friction of the inner tube against the inner periphery of the tapering threaded rod of the first shaft and the rod portion of the second shaft.
