ABSTRACT:
This invention provides a locking device for securely engaging a mounting body having a cylindrical end portion with a body having a projected end portion formed with an engaging portion. According to one embodiment, a resilient engaging member having an engaging portion engageable with said engaging portion of the body is provided. The elastic engaging portion is movable between a first position where it closely contacts with one of the side surfaces of the inner and outer surfaces of the projected end of the mounting body and a second position where the engaging portion is released from said one side surface. At the first position the mounting body is engageable with the body and at the second position both bodies are disenageable. Also there is provided with a connecting member penetrating the side wall of the cylindrical end portion of the mounting body and one end of the connecting member is secured to the engaging member; and a projecting pin is arranged at the other end of the connecting member; and an operating member having a groove inclined to the other side surface and engaged with the pin is provided, thereby the engaging member can be moved between said first and second positions when the operating member slidably moves.
