Abstract
A lever () can be assembled in either of two postures symmetrical with respect to an axis of symmetry (), and the rotating direction of the lever () changes depending on the assembling posture. Thus, the rotating direction of the lever () can be selected depending on circumstances. A cam follower () can enter a cam groove () regardless of the posture in which the lever () is assembled. The lever () can be held at a standby position by a holder (L,R,), and the lever () can be locked at a connection position by a lock (L,R,L,R,).
