The locking clamp assembly includes a clamp head with a threaded portion and at least one retaining slot traversing the threaded portion, a clamp housing adapted to threadedly received the clamp head, and a locking pin that is operatively mounted on the clamp housing and is positioned adjacent to the retaining slot. When the locking clamp assembly is engaged, the locking pin is adapted to interact with at least one retaining slot to prevent the locking clamp assembly from movement in a first direction and for actuation by a retaining slot to enable movement of the locking clamp assembly in a second direction.
