摘要

The Christmas tree stand has a base plate (2) with a central aperture surrounded by a collar (3), into which the tree trunk (4) fits. Clamps (5a - 5d) mounted around this swivel to hold the trunk in place. These are operated by a cable (7) attached to a pedal (6) and have flexible pads (8a - 8d) on their ends, allowing the trunk to be adjusted when the clamps are in place.
