ABSTRACT:
The assembly includes a support member (16) adapted to be connected to a support structure and the conduit (12) includes a slider member (28) slideably through the support member (16). The slider member (28) slideably disposed in a passageway (24) extending longitudinally through the support member (16). The slider member (28) includes a plurality of locking teeth (64) spaced an equal distance apart longitudinally along the slider member (28). The support member (16) includes a guideway (38) which supports a latch member (42) with a single tooth (66) for engagement with the locking teeth (64) of the slider member (28). The assembly is characterized by a cap member (48) which connects the latch member (42) to a spring (56) and pivots about one end (50) for moving the latch member into and out of engagement with the slider member (28). The cap member (48) allows transmission of a resultant force from the spring (56 ) only in a direction which is aligned with the transverse movement of the latch member (42) to prevent torsional forces from being transmitted to the latch member (42) from the spring (56).
