An anchoring device for anchoring a movable body to a stationary surface, the anchoring device comprising: at least one cam member which is movable in a first direction substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the movable body, the cam member having a cam surface which is at an oblique orientation to the first direction; a grip member having gripping means for preventing movement of the movable body relative to the stationary surface, and having a first oblique surface; and at least one intermediary member have a second oblique surface which cooperates with the cam surface of the cam member and a third oblique surface which cooperates with the first oblique surface of the grip member such that movement of the cam member in the first direction causes at least movement of the intermediary member in a second direction normal to the first direction which in turn causes movement of the grip member in the second direction such that the gripping means engages with the stationary surface. |
