ABSTRACT:
A retrievable connector assembly is disclosed for securing two parts together. The assembly includes a guide frame to support the first of two parts and a pair of rotatable shafts with threaded ends to carry male coupling members with pins which extend from each coupling member. The assembly also includes a mounting hub attached to the second part. The mounting hub includes female coupling members having slots to receive the pins of the male coupling members. Rotation of the shafts moves the pins into lateral legs of the slots locking the two parts together. Further rotation of the shafts causes the male coupling members to move upward along the shafts forcing the first and second parts together. The two parts can be separated for retrieval by rotating the shafts in the reverse direction thereby separating the male and female coupling members.
