Rod holder retention device

摘要

A device designed for temporarily mounting an object to a tubular rod holder. The device consists of a pair of engagement sleeves, each having an inclined plane defining one end. The engagement sleeves are oriented such that the inclined planes complementarily engage one another. A rod extends axially through the engagement sleeves, being fixed to one of the engagement sleeves and extending beyond the end of the other engagement sleeves for supporting an object. When a nut is tightened to force the two engagement sleeves against one another, the inclined planes cause the cylinder to shift laterally and firmly engage the inner wall of the tubular rod holder.
