Abstract
There is provided a spacing assembly () comprising a support body () and a moveable body () received in a guide track of the support body (). The first guide track allows movement of the moveable body () in a spacing direction () but restricts the moveable body () in a lateral direction () perpendicular to the spacing direction (). An adjuster () comprises first and second spiral channels (), which are arranged about a common point () on a surface of the adjuster () and engage a first lug () of the support body () and a second lug () of the moveable body (), respectively, such that the adjuster () is rotatable about the common point (). Rotation of the adjuster () drives the moveable body (), under the lateral restriction of the first guide track (), to move relative to the support body () in the spacing direction ().
