clevisn.

Brit.

/ˈklɛvɪs/, U.S.

/ˈklɛvəs/

Forms: So 1500s– ; also 1600s cleuise, cleuisse, clevies; clivies, 1600s–1700s clives, 1800s clivvis; 1700s clevvy, 1800s clevy.

Etymology: Of uncertain form and origin: in most of the quotations treated as a singular (with plural, in 9 clevises ); but in some as plural, with clevy , clevvy as its singular. It might be an Old English *clyfes < *kluƀisî (like yfes eaves), < weak stem of *kleuƀ- , cléof- to cleave v.¹, the thing being perhaps originally a cloven or forked piece. Compare German klobe.

A U-shaped piece of iron, with a pin or bolt passing through holes in the two ends, whereby it can be bolted on to the end of a beam or the like, so as to form a loop to which tackle may be attached. The simple shape is variously modified according to purpose; in Mining it becomes a hook with a pin or bolt (cf. clip-hook n. at clip n.¹ Compounds 2).

a. as a means of connecting a plough or cart with the gear of the draught animal.
