ABSTRACT:
A fastener includes a body member including a receiving portion longitudinally formed therein, two clamping portions transversely extending from the receiving portion and two through-holes in the clamping portions, respectively. A joint member, coupled to the two clamping portions of the body member in a pivotal manner, includes a cam portion defined on the distal portion of a second end of the joint member and includes a fixed hole provided through the second end transversely and corresponding to the through-holes. The joint member is moveable between an unfolding position and a folding position. The cam portion restricts a pivot angle of the joint member in the unfolding position. A fixing member is installed onto the clamping portions opposite to the joint member, with the fixing member selectively inserted into the through-holes and the fixed hole for fixing the joint member with respect to a support.
