Greetings---
Just added some photos. The technical name of the Cyclo chain adjusters (the trademarkable part) is the Cyclo True Track or Tru Track Chain Adjuster. Something like that. I have an ad from Cycling magazine from the '40s that has the proper name. It's funny, as I've never heard anyone use the phrase "Tru Track" or "True Track" when describing them or listing them at auction.
Also included in the photos is a page from the Brown Bros. 1939 catalogue of British cycling parts showing various chain adjusters.

Hope this helps.
