[pianotech] can anyone identify this hardware?

It was to push the music desk panel out so there would be a slant to hold the music.

>From an 1884 Vose & Sons upright.  Attaches under the keybed - one at each end 
(see closed position photo) .  Each pivots outward to extend beyond keybed (open 
position photo).  Does anyone know what purpose these serve?  I can't conjure up 
a decent guess...
