The movable cuff further includes a driven member including an aperture through which the elongated arm is attached. The torsional force necessary to move the arm can be increased or decreased by rotating a knob attached to a threaded bolt which extends through the housing and a space defined by the engagement of the fixed and movable cuffs. A plurality of Belleville washers can compressingly engage a pair of bearing washers at eider end of the interior space.
