Abstract:
A mechanical utility invention that creates a permanent or temporary rigidity key and fastener designed to be used with the member beam of the parent application, U.S. Ser. No. 15/703,993. It has substantially more utilities than its conventional counterparts: slide bars, chicken feet, u-channel clasps with wing nuts, sashes, and spring and buttons; in that it is different in shape, has multi-functional capabilities, can be used where variable prohibition is desired, consists of only one part, and it can be used as a temporary key or a permanent key. It enlists gravity and compression from the passing segment, thus requiring less pressure from the user than its conventional spring and button counterparts. Making it a superior choice when economy of force is necessary or desired.

Claim (Index 1):
A \u201cM\u201d shaped rigidity mechanism and key designed to prohibit reverse motion between segments, as recited in the parent application U.S. Ser. No. 15/703,993, joined together where movement of said segment is desired in one direction, but it is necessary to prohibit reverse motion in the opposite direction, comprising:\n a flexible a sheet material cut into a rectangle shape, wherein having a longitudinal and latitudinal value a fraction of the segments for which it is to prohibit reverse motion, wherein the rectangle shape is then molded by way of compressed force, or cuts along latitudinal lines in \u2153 sections that expand less than the full depth and thickness of the sheet material, wherein the first and last being cuts on one side of the sheet material and the middle cut on the opposite side; so that the rectangle shape when compressed and folded resembles the letter \u201cM\u201d; \n wherein when pushed by the passing of the segment the \u201cM\u201d shape has an accordion movement and diminishes its latitudinal dimensional value, while lengthening its longitudinal dimensional value. Thereby, allowing the segments to pass uninhibited; \n wherein once the segment has passed the flexible material recoils and springs back returning to its original shape of resembling an \u201cM\u201d; thus prohibiting segments from reverse motion.
