Claim 3:
4. The system of claim 3, wherein distal ends of each of the first and second extending members include a loop configured to be hooked over a portion of a corresponding one of the first and second hinges, the distal ends of each of the first and second extending members are biased radially away from a longitudinal axis of the adapter so that, when loops of the first and second extending members are hooked over the first and second hinges, respectively, the distal ends of the first and second extending members are restrained toward an engaging configuration, and when the distal ends of the first and second extending members are disengaged from the first and second hinges, the distal ends of the first and second extending members spring laterally outward to release the clip therefrom in the final deployed configuration.
