ABSTRACT:
Objects (10) to be secured in place relative to a support member (48) are placed on a support portion (16) of a base member (14) which is secured to the support structure (48). A U-shaped retainer (12) is moved into a position with its sidearms (18, 20) on opposite sides of the objects (10) and the ends of the sidearms (18, 20) aligned with slots (36, 38) in the support portion (16). Then, the retainer (12) is pushed endwise, until a cross member (22), innterconnected between the upper ends of the sidearms (18, 20) is down against the objects (10). The movement of the sidearms (18, 20) causes a spreading apart of a pair of flanges (44, 46) which depend from the support portion (16) of base member (14). When the retainer (12) is seated, lower edge portions (40, 43) of the flanges (44, 46) dig into the edges (28, 30 and 32, 34) of the sidearms (18, 20), and securely connect the retainer (12) to the base member (14). Cam tools (98) are provided for spreading the flanges (44, 46) apart, so that the retainer (12) can be quickly and easily pulled away from the base member (14), to in that manner release the objects (10) from the support structure (48).
