Content

Together the bone plate 108 and rotatable structure 112 can cooperate to create a detent mechanism. The detent mechanism can retain the rotatable structure 112 in a locked orientation and may include a niche 130 and at least one ear 132. In the illustrated embodiment, the detent mechanism can include a niche 130 and one or more ears 132. The niche 130 and/or ears 132 can be formed in either the rotatable structure 112 (e.g., along an edge of the rotatable structure 112) and/or in the bone plate 108, for example in a rim 304 of a recess 120.
