Abstract

A rigid link of adjustable length includes a yoke with a transversal stud. The stud is mounted on the yoke with two bearings, each inside a through-orifice in the yoke. The axis of the stud is offset from the axis of the bearings whereby the link includes a stopping device in order to lock the stud in at least two different positions, relative to the yoke.
