FIGS. 17A-17C illustrate said locking system 1700 in an open-configuration. FIG. 17D illustrates said locking system 1700 in a closed-configuration. In one embodiment, said locking system 1700 can comprise a first arm 1702, a second arm 1704, a lock 1706 and a key 1708. In one embodiment, said first arm 1702 can comprise a plurality of teeth 1710. In one embodiment, said first arm 1702 can move in and out relative to said lock 1706. In one embodiment, said plurality of teeth 1710 can be locked into one of a plurality of positions according to the location of said plurality of teeth 1710 relative to said lock 1706. In one embodiment, said lock 1706 is able to lock onto one of said plurality of teeth 1710 by rotating said key 1708 in said lock 1706 to hold said plurality of teeth 1710 in place relative to said lock 1706. Thus, in one embodiment, said locking system 1700 can be locked in a variety of positions.
FIG. 18 illustrates a perspective front view of said locking system 1700 locking around said pipe 100, where said pipe 100 is in a cross section view. In one embodiment, said first arm 1702 can be inserted into said carburetor aperture 206 and said second arm 1704 can be inserted into said inhaling aperture 204; wherein, said locking system 1700 can be used to hold said pipe 100 closed by locking said locking system 1700 so as to prevent said pipe 100 from being dismantled.
