1.
in anatomy: A lymphatic ganglion; one of the numerous small, smooth, rounded organs which occur in the course of the lymphatics: formerly more fully called conglobate gland. see cut under lymphatic.
2. some secretory part or organ; a secreting crypt, follicle, or the like, generally of mucous or tegumentary surfaces, or a conglomeration of such parts composing some organ which secretes or excretes a substance peculiar to itself, as the liver, kidney, pancreas, parotid gland, testicle, etc., or the lacrymal, sebaceous, salivary, gastric, intestinal, and other glands.
3. some smooth rounded part or organ of undetermined function, as the spleen and the thyroid and thymus. see ductless gland, below
4. the glans penis or glans clitoridis, the head of the penis or of the clitoris.
5. in botany: an acorn; also, the similar involucrate nut of the hazel, beech, and chestnut, A secreting organ upon the surface of any part of a plant, or partially embedded in it.
6. in machinery, a contrivance, consisting of a cross-piece or clutch, for engaging or disengaging machinery moved by belts or bands.
7. in steam-engines and other machines:
8. A stuffing-box.
9. A joint so tightly packed as to retain oil or other lubricating fluid for a considerable length of time. also called gland-box.
10. in human anatomy, a small conglomerate body about as large as a pea, lying near the tip of the coccyx, the exact structure and function of which is uncertain. it is intimately connected with the arteries and nerves, and is probably not of glandular character. it is also called Luschka's gland, after ita first describer, and by Arnold glomerulus arteriococcygeus.
11. in botany, the stomates or breathing-pores of a leaf.
12. the sliding member of an engine stuffing-box, by which the packing is compressed against the rod by endwise pressure from the bolts or nut.

14. A plate through which the ends of a binding-band or clevis pass; a clip.
15. in entomology, paired or single glands situated near the rectum and usually connected with it. the secretion of these glands is frequently fetid in odor, and they then function as repugnatorial organs.
16. in uncinaria, a pair of pear-shaped bodies of unknown function, which lie one on each side of the pharynx and probably open externally near the mouth.
17. Eversible repugnatorial glands situated in the coxa of certain of the lower insects, as the Symphyla and Synaptera. see defensive glands.
