In the history of firearms, it is used principally to denote the instrument required to prepare for firing any discharge mechanism of the wheel lock type. In its simplest form, it consists of a handle terminating in a steel plate pierced with a square hole. This hole fits on the squared arbor of the wheel. When the handle is moved, the wheel rotates against the pull of the mainspring, until it is caught by the sear mechanism, and held until released by the trigger. 1, record 5, English, - spanner

Record number: 18, Textual support number: 1 CONT
At each end of the court a free-throw lane is marked. It is a rectangle 12 ft wide and extending 19 ft from the end-line. A semi-circle with a radius of 6 ft is drawn from the center of the free-throw lane giving the lane some resemblance to a keyhole. Hence it is normally referred to as the "key". No player is allowed to remain in the key for more than 3 sec. when his team has the possession of the ball. 6, record 18, English, - free%2Dthrow%20lane
Record number: 18, Textual support number: 2 CONT
From the ends of the foul line to the base line run two lines that form the free throw lane, or foul lane. ... In international play the foul lane is 17 feet wide at the base line, and therefore its lines slant outward from the 12-foot-wide free throw lane. 2, record 18, English, - free%2Dthrow%20lane
