ABSTRACT:
A king pin locking mechanism employs a sliding locking bar in a housing for engaging a king pin. A key-activated cam moves dead bolts outwardly of the locking bar to lock that bar in the housing. Tampering forces applied to the cam deform a deformable member relocking the cam and dead bolts against unauthorized movement.
