The assembly includes a support member (l6) adapted to be connected to a support structure and the conduit (l2) includes a slider member (28) slideably through the support member (l6). The slider member (28) slideably disposed in a passageway (24) extending longitudinally through the support member (l6). 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 (l6) 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 the biasing means (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 biasing means (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 biasing means (56). |
