Explanation:
IMHO it refers back to 'claims'; it is hard to see how "wherein" could be used with reference to a 'cock', whereas it fits perfectly with 'claims', in which certain things are claimed.

Of course, actually having claims 1 and 5 ought to make it clear what is being talked about here.

neutral  Tony M: How can anything be 'in the 'cock'? 'whereof' might have been feasible, but from an engineering point of view, the rest that follows wouldn't make sense.
