ABSTRACT:
A locking assembly to interconnect two adjacent members having axially aligned apertures includes a body member having a bore therethrough, a hinge pin with a locking groove therein passed through both the aligned apertures and the bore of said body, and retaining means positioned in said body and adapted to be received in the locking groove to hold the hinge pin in a preselected axial position. In one form, the retaining means consists of a locking pin driven into a blind end bore partially intersecting said longitudinal bore, the portion of said locking pin passing through said longitudinal bore being received in said locking groove. In another form, the retaining means comprises a spring clip slightly smaller than said longitudinal bore and being normally urged by biasing means into a position offset with respect to the axis of said longitudinal bore, whereby the spring clip is positively received and held in the locking groove of the hinge pin when in axial alignment therewith by the natural radial contraction of said spring clip and by the biasing means forcing the spring clip to an offset position.
